Apple Watch Replica Review: New Iradish Y6 Bluetooth Smart Watch Phone Review and Features

Smart watches market registered a significant increase in the last 2 years. The trend was imposed by Samsung with the introduction of the first intelligent clock Gear and continued with solutions such as LG G Watch Android Wear Motorola Moto 360 or Sony SmartWatch 3 and, recently, with Apple iWatch. Despite the diversity of these devices database, SmartWatch sites and other wearable accessories available in the market are still a luxury among ordinary consumers. Due to the relatively high purchase prices and performances often limited, consumers are still reluctant to adopt such solutions. Take for example the SmartWatch Moto 360 that received a review from us a few months ago. It looks good, is comfortable on the wrist, comes with complete functions, but only a few hours autonomy over 1,000 lei price make it very attractive not only among the latest technology enthusiasts.

On the one hand there are premium devices such as those mentioned above, and on the other hand we have cheap alternatives, and sometimes performing from some Chinese companies not well known. The prices for such accessories starts from about $ 20 and go up to $ 100, depending on the building and facilities.

By means of the ebay, I managed to test a price lower class accessory. It’s called Iradish Y6 and comes in an attractive design, inspired by the series of smart watches iWatch Apple.

Y6 Iradish integrates a steel construction, seamless, adjustable bracelet and removable rear cover. I know, not protected against contact with liquids or dust, but should withstand a few drops of water.

The watch weighs only 60 grams, measures 12.5 mm thick and has a 1.54 inch screen running at a resolution of 240 × 240 pixelli. Inside we find an MediaTek 6260, 128 MB RAM and 64 MB internal memory which can be expanded up to 32GB using a microSD card.

Despite integrates a gyroscope, start screen will be done exclusively by pressing and not simply by lifting the hand as I saw the models coming from renowned producers. These are the main disadvantage of Iradish Y6.

Although the 1.54-inch screen provides a rich picture detail, contrast and viewing angles are poor. Not being an IPS panel, it is imperative to look perpendicular, otherwise the picture quality will be seriously affected. To my surprise, is doing relatively well in direct sunlight, the screen backlight is very bright.

The battery is removable and has a capacity of 350 mAh. Fortunately, thanks to the use of a proprietary operating system clock has achieved a range of about three days, during which it has always paired with the phone provided (Asus ZenFone 2).

It can work in standalone mode by inserting a microSIM card. You can then make calls and surf the Internet at speeds GPRS (meh!). I did not get to test this feature very much, but we managed to turn and open portal AndroidGeek.ro within a few seconds.

Proprietary operating system presents a layout similar to Apple’s distribution watch and like it, is not very customizable. We can choose one of three sites watchface all analog and themes package is restricted to screen backgrounds. As you might expect, I can not install other applications besides the preinstalled, but if we consider the ridiculous price that can be purchased Iradish Y6, this should not be a major problem.

All messages, contacts from the phonebook and recent calls are directly accessible on the clock, it is automatically synced whenever any change is made.

It integrates a QWERTY keyboard through which one can send text messages, but do not want to imagine how much patience you need to type a sentence on a screen of 1.5 inches.

First initialization process is simple and fast. Turn Bluetooth connectivity on and watch them paired smartphone.Subsequently it will be necessary to install an application (BT Notifications) that you can download by scanning a QR code clock menu. Immediately after the first configuration, the clock will start to take absolutely all the notifications from the smartphone and display them on the screen alerting you before through a subtle vibration.

Despite the low purchase price, the device has performed flawlessly during testing. There were no jams, perfectly mated supplied with all phones, instant notifications displayed and pedometer results reported were very close to reality. If you do not want to invest a huge amount in a such accessory, Iradish Y6 may be the ideal choice.
