Rank #8 in Best Smartwatch 2026: The Battery Is Quoted Without GPS
Blackview Military Smart Watch with 100-Day Battery
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Blackview Military is a £24.18 rugged smartwatch rated 4.1 stars from 4,206 ratings, sold on MIL-STD-810G build, a 960mAh battery, a flashlight and a 100-day battery claim.
It takes eighth place on value and build, with one decisive caveat: the specification table says Bluetooth, Cellular and GPS in one field and No GPS in another, and the truth is the second one.
How those 4,206 ratings break down
An average hides its own shape. This is the spread behind the 4.1 stars.

Questions people ask
Does it have GPS?
No. The field reads No GPS, even though another field in the same table lists GPS.
How long does the battery last?
The listing claims 100 days with a 960mAh cell, with no mode stated and no independent figure.
Can it make calls?
Yes, over Bluetooth, with the phone in range; it is not a cellular watch despite the field.
Is it really military-grade?
It is sold as MIL-STD-810G, and the reviews describe a rugged watch, but that is the listing's claim, not a test of ours.
Why is it eighth?
Because it is good value hardware with no GPS and a self-contradicting specification table.
How many ratings does it have?
4206 at the time of collection, averaging 4.1 stars, with 60 per cent five-star and 10 per cent one-star.
