Reebok has released the Rush smartwatch in the US, targeting budget-conscious consumers seeking basic fitness tracking without premium pricing. Priced at $69.99, it undercuts the company’s Stride model by using lower-cost components while maintaining essential functionality.
The Rush sports a 1.39-inch LCD touchscreen at 360 × 360 resolution, replacing the Stride’s AMOLED display to reduce manufacturing costs. The device supports over 80 sport modes, including running, cycling, and yoga, with assisted GPS leveraging smartphone connectivity for location tracking.
Health monitoring features include continuous heart rate tracking, SpO₂ measurement, step counting, calorie tracking, and sleep analysis. Data syncs automatically to the Reebok Connect app, which integrates with Strava, Google Health, and Apple Health. Bluetooth 5.3 handles connectivity for smart notifications, music control, reminders, and Google Assistant commands.
Notable omissions distinguish the Rush from higher-tier models. The watch lacks Bluetooth calling capability and a built-in speaker, features present on the Stride. IP68 water resistance protects against rain and splashes but not swimming. The 300mAh battery delivers up to 10 days of usage with quick charging support, though actual battery life depends on usage patterns.
The 46 × 46 × 11 mm plastic case weighs 47 grams and accepts interchangeable sport bands. Users can select from over 100 watch faces for personalization. Onboard sensors include heart rate, SpO₂, G-sensor, touch panel, and vibration motor.
Three color options are available: Midnight Steel, Spectre Red, and Victory Gold. The Rush is now listed on Reebok’s US website as the company’s most affordable smartwatch offering.
