- Опубліковано 31 лип 2024
- Unboxing the Kospet Optimus 2, an upgraded budget-friendly smartwatch boasting better performance than the Prime - but is it one of the best smart watches of 2021? Well, with full-fat Android 10 on board, the Optimus 2 is certainly a unique and feature-packed device. This hands-on Kospet smartwatch review runs through the best bits, including that rotating camera and fitness tracking.
Check out my round-up of my favourite watches right now for a look at rival wrist rockets. You can grab this watch now for £179 from the manufacturer, or use coupon code 333OPTIMUS2 for a discount:

With full Google Play access, you can download a huge selection of apps onto this Prime rival. However, the circular display means a lot of these apps are awkward to use. Thankfully you do get plenty of pre-installed options for tracking your stats and more, plus a good selection of watch faces.
The Kospet Optimus 2 also offers impressive customisation, SIM support and a mic and speaker. So overall, some pretty good features for the cash.

the frequency and quality of ur content leaves no doubt that you're literally the best at what you do.
He is the most hardworking that's for sure man🙌🙌🙌
New to smartwatch shopping. Finally jumping on the bandwagon. Found your presentation, understanding and opinions incredibly insightful. 👏
Agree 👍👍 and he doesn't try to blow smoke up your arse
Hi. Even if the applications are not optimized for the round screen there is the option in square format by holding down the top button.
Yes, he forgot to show us this option : square screen ! Maybe he is not a fan of Kospet ! :)
I have a Kospet Hope and the bad, bad functions is the huge consumation of battery in 4G network mode so a poor autonomy of battery ! Another bad thing is the quality of plastic : the SIM's tray is broken after 7 manouvres and the only thing I can do for fix it it was put a permanent acrilyc glue ! :(
If you hold in the power button you will get the option to change the screen into square mode in order to access some onscreen buttons.
Yes, he forgot to show us this option : square screen ! Maybe he is not a fan of Kospet ! :)
Love the way he gets straight to the content, n he also possesses that European touch to his presentation
European is an extremely broad and diverse term. You mean British. 😎
Questions if I may Sir Spurt?
1. Any water resistance?
2. Can you come back in a few days with an update on battery life as Kospet are very, very well known to lie about battery size?
3. Are you sure there is not a square screen mode for reaching menu items off screen? These watches usually do?
Edit: I see from the comments that there is a square screen mode.
Great review. Many thanks.
People in a few years will probably look back on this tech and laugh, watching it on 8k ultra slim watch screens with nano batteries that last 50 years between charges. And the AI personal assistant on their watch will probably laugh along with them.
A but the battery there will be no battery 🔋 way it's a secret 😉
Ai: Remember when humans were allowed to make their own decisions?
Ai: Laughs in overlord
Already waiting..
"Pft, it can't even play the crappy game Cyberpunk 2077, what more Doom 6!
Mostly correct, the battery wont be.
Suspicious really, tech moves on soooo fast apart from battery tech, its almost lile its artificially restricted.
If I was 2m high with 120kg, I'd buy this in a blink!
However, I can just strap a phone to my wrist for the same looks...
The os is actually very smooth.
Love you and all your content! 💕

Great review, love the review, never the less that is a weird device.
Pretty insane battery if it’s even true. Would love to see a tear down of it...
Its like a James bond watch.. camera and all. Love the chipset. Only downside is i'll have to spend a year in the gym doing wrist curls (fnarr fnarr) to make my wrist big enough to take it ha ha. Great review and good mix of tech and funnies as usual Spurt. Top job my man

Amazing review can you share some pictures from the camera please ?
Interesting. It's a bit like my Joying Android car stereo that runs full android. Mostly advantages, but there's a few small disadvantages. Mainly just that the size scaling can be a little off. Like it's a 1600 x 900 resolution so some things are way too small to be poking for during driving.
Great video - thanks. Can you make Bluetooth calls from this watch (with the sim card in your phone)?
Appreciate that Rising of the Shield Hero background!
Can you pls help me decide? Huawei GT2 pro or Huawei watch 3?
You can push the air bubble out by pressing with your finger and sliding the air bubble out I hope this helps you get the air bubble pushed out from underneath the screen Protector it happened to me too so I just pushed the air bubble out from underneath the screen protector
This is amazing, I am saving money to buy one
That's a cool watch man 😎
Hey Chris,
Is there a watch that a cheap watch that you would recommend with Wear OS?
Or what watch do you recommend for features (and battery life) at a low-ish price point?
Try ticwris 3 pro or Not wear os but amazfit gtr 2e
Thumbs up just for the step count setting to 1000 steps.
Does a Strava app work with this ? And how good is the Bluetooth connectivity ?
If this technology gathered more interest and got more invested into, it could very well be an alternative to a normal smartphone in the future. Even more than a foldable considering this would be cheap af. Hope bigger players get into this market.
Disclaimer: I don’t even use a watch, find them too uncomfortable, but this could become very interesting tech.
The problem is the battery.. When it's that thick, it's uncomfortable. And the other thing is, the AI should be able to understand almost every request by voice. Then it's done.
i am BIG FUN of your video where did you buy it
Hey Spurt how are you.., how do you compare the Lokmat appllp 4 and The Rogbid Brave pro to the Kospet Optimus 2 with all the features all the watchs have which is the best of the best
That air bubble drove me crazy
If you hold the blue button down for a few seconds and you can change to a square watch face which then gives you complete access to the UA-cam controls the more you play with this watch the more you learn about it still it wasn't a bad video but maybe you could do another vid on the Optimus prime 2 after you have had it a while longer cheers J
nice video🙌
2:54 Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.
So much weeb you can taste it!
great vid!! could you pls tell me are the fitness tracker like calories and steps accurate like other watches from huawei...etc?? thanks in advance!
Ordered 👍
I know it's a rather small screen, but surely it would still pay to be able to use the screen as a flash in selfie mode.
Can you get mobile hotspot from the watch when using a sim card?
thanks for the review, but whats the price in Euro and USD ?
Will this pair to my smart phone via Bluetooth, Or Is it standalone only?
So, you can't pair this with your iPhone/Android and receive notifications on the watch?
how long it last the battery to the
battery saver mode?
Does the flash work as a torch too??
By the way,the older prime 2 had the same chipset(helio p22)!
Just open a camera app... So it works... Maybe some torch apps use this led too
is it usable like a normal smartwatch via bluetooth?
Okay so I bought this watch and it's friggin awesome, except for one major problem: it puts off a ton of EMF. The WiFi will blast you away, so I put this thing in Airplane mode and my Trifield EMF reader was still picking up significant RF radiation from it which was unbelievable, but at the same time not really surprising given it's Chinese. It is really too bad, because it is such a cool watch and idk how to stop that. I wish I knew which radio(s) were responsible. Right now it's sitting on a nearby table away from me in Airplane mode, blasting away at everything around it for no apparent reason at all. I compared it with my Samsung Galaxy Active 2 just to make sure, and there was no apparent emission of EMF coming from their Airplane mode.
Omg . What kind of device do you have ? I need this thing. Samsung phone and buds have radiation too. I feel it while talking On the phone.
hold the power button then a menu will pop up to make the screen square and then you will see all buttons.
Can I use this to pair with my phone ?
Can't wait to get mines 😌
Got mine Friday, it's awesome!
@@JustinPennito how is it working?
@@Skaushik2025 man honestly, it didn't go well. I went running with it & it was lightly raining outside while doing so & it got super hot, almost burning my wrist & by the time it cooled off, it wouldn't come back on & I've actually been waiting 3 months now for a refund from Kospet.
Is that the full collection of the Akira manga? Sick, if so.
Hey bro, Today I received my optimus 2 and I am unable to connect with my phone with Bluetooth....
This watch overall is a very nice watch, the only issue which is more of a warning is that it has absolutely NO IP Rating whatsoever, don't let the "life waterproof" fool you because it's an absolute lie, and the fact that KOSPET can lie like this makes me feel that I could in no way recommend it. The camera has a nifty feature that allows it to swing, this is the sole reason that it is not at all waterproof. Behind this rotating camera is a little ribbon that runs into the watch, and to get this ribbon inside there is a BIG hole in the side of the watch, this can easily be verified by removing the Sim card tray and simply blowing into the watch, you will feel and hear the air happily flowing out of the gap by the camera. And don't think keeping the camera flipped down will help because it absolutely won't unfortunately. I give this warning because my watch got wet, just from a simple hand wash for 5 seconds and the water got everywhere in the watch, the screen died and the phone took 2 weeks to just turn back on, the watch had to then be disassembled to be thoroughly cleaned inside for it to start working again. This is when I discovered the nice hole that goes straight through the watch frame. The buttons are also not water proof so if you press while near water it will get in unfortunately. This device has son much possibilities but the absolute lack of any water resistance coupled with the ip rating lie makes me suggest you move on to a different device / brand altogether. I'm first smart watch was an Amazfit and this device is totally waterproof so perhaps I had too high an expectation that I could simply wash my hand and not worry.
Do you know any watch that can use offline map without a sim, so it be like an actual navigation tool, waterproof is a must.
definitely the HBO of tech-review. 😉
Is this water-resistant or water-proof? If so, what's the IP rating
How long it took for shipping ?
Is the chip in this watch the same as the chip in Thor 6 watch ??
I had the Kospet Optimus Pro - it's basically Android in watch form but I had constant problems with battery life, overheating, build quality: the corners connecting the strap to the case snapped off so I superglued them back on and the final nail in the coffin - the power button mechanism failed so I can't actually switch the watch on anymore.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 to replace it and I've never looked back, all in all my Optimus Pro lasted about 6 months and there's no guarantee as well. ☹️
I could easily live with round screen, square os issues because there were so many workarounds but the poor build quality killed everything for me - these full Android watches are interesting but as day to day watches they're simply too unreliable to be taken seriously! 🤔
I agree with assessment 👍 hence why I got out of the biz
You are absolutely right I love the images I have the kospet prime 2 and I'm going through trouble with it. battery don't last that long and GPS don't work that well
@@earlkyat8092 GPS would kill mine dead within an hour of switching it on, but I did have some crazy fun with it though.
One time I switched on the 4g personal hotspot, connected my Netflix streaming laptop, then connected my UA-cam streaming Intel NUC desktop and on top of that I ran UA-cam Music on the watch itself connected to my Bluetooth speakers - 4g, WiFi hotspot to two devices + Bluetooth stereo transmission. The experiment lasted about 25 minutes, the watch overheated so much that it rebooted itself, not before almost burning my left wrist! 🤣
@@moochincrawdad 🤣🤣🤣
Does it have android market on watch ?
Does watch work with Facer App
Smooth 👌
10:45 "Optimus Prime 2" 😅😆
Does it have a vibrate on silent function?
Great video! I have two questions
1.Could I be able to respond to notifications from Viber,whatsapp, sms,etc... using only the watch?
2.Could I start dictating a message from within the app(like whatsapp) using a mic icon on the keyboard?
Yes for both.
Good one ☝️
Hi just wanted to ask a question
I don’t have a phone so which watch should I get the gt2 or optimus 2
Optimus 2
"I have an Optimus Prime watch, the first version. Unfortunately, the charger stopped working, and I can't find another one. The watch is stored because I don't want to get rid of it. I loved wearing it. I have already talked to Kospet, but they couldn't help me because they don't have the charger anymore. My suggestion is that they should use a standard charger, which would make it easier for people who have problems with this type of accessory. Thank you!"
No NFC or answering calls by bluetooth?
I jus think that looks beautiful cute I love it 🥰
I have Optimus pro 1
on it if you hold top button in it pulls up shut down screen
you can select round or square screen then push bottom button and it will return with square screen
its nice it does get hot when I Hotspot to phone for wifi
it doesn't have sleep monitor
This watch and it's features look flipping massive!!!
I have mixed feelings for the Kospet brand, I first purchased the Kospet prime s the speaker went out after a month. The company Kospet was good on return but they no longer had the prime S so they offered me the optimus 2 for $80 difference, which i agreed. Received pretty quick , had the watch same 1 month and it kept rebooting and it came up with writing saying to set back to factory settings . it did this twice then later it would only charge to around 89 to 91 %.Cant be bothered sending this one back ,but still good watch for most just have to get use to it,
So like I was thinking.... not worth to keep important files on them... that so sad actually.
Lemfo and kospet no quality. They could be the best.. but no...
Why are you not reviewing the mi 11x pro?
How to turn camera shutter sound off
This smartwatch is literally a wrist woren smartphone 👍😀 guess I have to give it a try too

Please Tech Spurt, does this Watch have Bluetooth Calling? That's what we really need with this Kind of watches seriously
No it doesn't support BT calling. Only older android versions support this feature.
Square screen mode press the switch on button for a second to see menu to change from circle to square ,you got the modes wrong android mode full android , sports mode is the low power mode
The battery life is shocking.But that's to be expected if you wanna wear a phone on your wrist .I'll stick to my GT2 watch thanks 👍
Why there is so little option in lte smart watch????
Is the watch water proof?
alguien sabe como agrandar las letras o fuentes del kospet optimus 2?
KOSPET OPTIMUS 2 does not reach 13MP pixels as he said. If you like to take a clear picture, you can take a look at the Rogbid Panda. His main camera can automatically focus and is a rare deep waterproof watch. I like it very much. !
The roman numerals around the outside edge look great, but the watchface itself is very small. The OS, storage, ram, and camera quality just isn't as good. The specs aren't being advertised correctly either. Also the panda looks like a weird zombie thing which is just stupid and ghetto AF like c'mon.
Looks hilarious lol you'll need Cargo shorts and a backpack to suit that dorky device
Where's the review for the ticwatch e3?
Need an advice optimus 2 or prime 2?
Does this support bluetooth call from watch sim?
Yes, support bluetooth call.
I have no problem using galaxy bus2.
NICE...
So many good features but looks way to damn big 😂 if only there was a sleek slim version.. maybe in 5 years lol
03:03 - That app name was perfect for your accent haha, maybe it could have been named 'ScouseFit' hahaha 🤪🤪🤪🤪
Where is the link??
Google translate app won't open any ideas? Cleared cache, re-installed....
What is the price please?
Helio P22 😳 in Smart watch.....Great 👏
Other brands only use Old Dual Core Cortex A7 Old Chips....
There is more than 5 watches using HELIO P22
Nice review.
Cheers

I hope durability is there. Love to see these watches take off
WHAT'S THE BATTERY LIFE ON A SINGLE CHARGE ?
SPO2 Levels?
I've been using the original Kospet Optimus(correction Kospet Prime) since it came out and it is by far the best smartphone watch I've ever seen and used. My only gripe with that one is the smartwatch camera positioning and the resolution doesn't seem to take in some QR codes required for covid check-in, so I'm thinking of upgrading to this watch for higher resolution camera and the camera swiveling which seems inspired. I'd love to find a comparison between this watch and the previous version. This one looks thicker, but I can't tell if the face is larger. I like that this one has far easier access to the sim card.
If I understand correctly there is no NFC or Bluetooth call connection back to the smartphone.
That is correct! I was in the biz
Can i use Netflix and Amazon Prime on this Watch?
Are they gonna call the next one, the *Kospet AutoBot* ?
Does it have google maps?
discount code no longer works. got another code?
But a pity that the screen size is not that of the prime2, it would have been perfect
Wait, the Prime 2 is bigger? If that's what you mean, then it'd be a pain for people with smaller wrists, maybe they should just make a Optimus 2+ or something
@@pifre3051 Yes the Prime 2 is bigger than 2 inch, more practical screen.
But problems with my Prime 2, Gps seems to no longer work, defective heart sensor .... In short, nice material that does not hold up
@@rrll9840 Does both of them have IP ratings though
What phone is this at 3:50
How long is the battery life?
I have a Kospet Hope since december 2020 : 7 hours in moble 4G network mode with mobile data connection activated ( without bluetooth activated and 25% intensity of display) and like result it has overheating the smartwatch. In 3G phone mobile network it runs 17 hours, with data mobile activated, without bluetooth. In 4G mobile if are not enough 4G signal it is a wasting battery draining ! May be the little antenna are not so suitable for this smartwatch !
Best watch ever.go big or go home
I know that a few years ago I wanted to buy similar smartwatch for 30 bucks. It had Android 4.4. It was still recent. That one had rectangular screen.
