DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary
| Smartwatch | 4GB Disk | Bluetooth |
We are reviewing the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary, the freshest release by DTNO1.
The DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition is the brand new model from the Watch X series, following the non-Anniversary edition that we reviewed some time ago.
The similar names with the older Watch X might make users get confused this is why sometimes the brand lists this new Anniversary Edition model as DT WATCH 10, instead of DT WATCH X.

D
Design
The DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition has a rectangular shape with rounded edges with a style very similar to the DTNO.1 DT ULTRA 2 that we reviewed in the past and, of course, to Apple watches.
Unlike the DTNO.1 DT ULTRA 2, the new DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition is part of the budget-friendly watches from the brand with a price much more accessible than the Android watch sibling.
On the right edge, the watch holds all the physical buttons of the device (1 button and 1 knob) while the left edge has 2 perforated grids that protect the speakers beneath.
The shell of the watch has a silver color with a pearled finish (similar to MacBooks) and a coherently light grey colored wristband.
This wristband is detachable and replaceable but not with typical pin-locking wristbands but with a magnetic and locking system that was also seen on the ULTRA 2 model.
To unlock the wristband you need to turn around the watch and press a dedicated button, on this side of the watch you will also see the charging pins and multi-health sensors.

Operation & Control
Some added functionalities have been introduced on the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition, making it even easier to operate than other models that we have reviewed.
Among the new features you can find a tap to turn on screen and a dual button and knob control system.
Moreover, these buttons and knob design are way easier to handle and reach than on the Watch X (non-Anniversary edition), while the knob also provides functions such as menu navigation or on-the-fly watch dial swapping by simply rotating the knob.
Of course, the main control of the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition is its screen which is touch sensitive and responds to taps and swipes.
4.75/5
B
Battery Life
The internal battery of the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition has a capacity of 240mAh, which is substantially smaller than on the DT ULTRA 2 but it still can provide up to 7 times more runtime than the Android watch.
On the other hand, the DT Watch X (non-Anniversary) has also a larger battery at 390mAh than the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition but so far the Anniversary Edition held without issue around a week of use on a single charge.
A good news for users, is that the watch has inherited the practical magnetic cord/dock charging system and does not uses the archaic bi-pin cable charger seen on most modern watches.

Construction & Build
We have mentioned that this is a budget-series watch that costs a fraction of the DT Watch ULTRA 2, yet the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition has a more rugged build with a full-metal shell (zinc alloy) and yet is at least 1/3 thinner (barely 9.5mm) than the flagship Android watch.
As what happened with other metal watches from the DT NO.1, we always get surprised at the excellent build quality and feel of the materials for such an affordably priced watch.
The unibody construction and build of the watch makes it also a waterproof rated one to withstand all-around daily abuse – also granted by the tempered glass and protection film pre-applied.
If you are curious about the guts of the watch, internally the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition is powered by a ATS3085S chip and dual GPU, while the sensors include a DA267 G-sensor and a HX3918 heart sensor.

S
Screen
The DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition presents a beautiful AMOLED screen with super colors, saturation and definition.
Thanks to the large 2.06″ diagonal size and resolution of 448×366, the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition offers plenty of screen space and remarkably crisp display performance.
The AMOLED panel with the generous resolution results in extremely easy to read fonts and smooth images, photos, videos with no pixelation nor rough edges.
In comparison to round-dial watches, the DT Watch X has a more proficient use of the screen space to maximize the functionality of apps and the overall UI.
As with other recent DT NO1 watches reviewed, the DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition includes a photo viewer, video player (native decoding) and even built-in games.
Moreover, the dial of the watch can be replaced with plenty of other options (free and paid) by downloading them from the watch itself or through the mobile app.

Comfort
The compact and slim body of the watch makes substantially more comfortable than larger smartwatches.
It is fair to mention that the DT Watch X is heavier than a plastic, cheap smartwatch but the brand did a good job keeping it still fairly light at just 37 grams.
On the other hand, the bundled wristband might not reach sufficient adjustment steps for thinner/smaller wrists like petite women and kids.
5/5
PER
Performance
The DT NO.1 DT Watch X 10th Anniversary Edition carries inside an internal EMMC disk for local storage of photos, music, videos or voice recordings; the total capacity is 4GB (though it is expressed in Gb and not GB, so you may read 32Gb)
On top of that, the watch includes also Bluetooth calling and standalone music, video playing with sound output either through the internal speaker or making use of its TWS Bluetooth function with TWS earphones.
Despite having a speaker (quite loud one), this can only be used for media, music, calls and videos but cannot be used for sound notifications. In fact, the notifications from apps on this watch are exclusively vibrating with the internal rumble motor but incoming calls will use the speaker for ringtones.
Nonetheless, this might be something that could be included with future firmware upgrades as the watch accepts OTG firmware updates from the WearOS app.
During the tests of the DT Watch X, the unit performed remarkably well with responsive touch controls that did not show delay, lag nor missed touch inputs.
This made navigating through the menus, user interface and using any built-in app a breeze without any struggling.
Moreover, notifications, pairing and connectivity with smartphones and TWS earphones were easy to carry on, stable and never presented hiccups nor sudden disconnections.
