In other words, the eSIM variant will deliver worse battery life than its Bluetooth counterpart. Specifically, the latter’s battery life stretches to 33 days in power-saving mode but drops to 17 days in normal use and 14 days with its always-on display (AoD) activated. By contrast, the eSIM variant only achieves 8 days of battery life when its LTE modem is in use.<\/p>\n
Regardless, both variants support sleep and cycle tracking with microphones and speakers installed to handle calls without needing to pick up a paired smartphone. The Vivo Watch GT 2 starts at CNY 499 (~$70) and rises to CNY 699 (~$98) for its eSIM option. Vivo has not commented on global availability though, unlike the X300 series<\/a> that also launched today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In other words, the eSIM variant will deliver worse battery life than its Bluetooth counterpart.
