How we chose these
We started from a pool of 621 priced listings under $100 and folded near-duplicates (same model in different colors) down to the 60 distinct watches you see in the data. From those, we selected 15 picks that cover the main uses people search for: large-screen calling watches, fitness trackers, kids' watches, rugged outdoor models, and a GPS option. We shortlisted by stated specifications only: screen size, Bluetooth calling, GPS, IP protection, battery claims, and audience. We did not handle or test any unit; every spec cited comes from the pool entry or the maker's published page. Live prices and availability are shown on the page from the store listing at the time you visit.
What to look for
Screen size: what the display class means
The pool groups screens into compact (under 1.4 inches), standard (1.4 to 1.8 inches), and large (1.8 inches or more). A large screen, such as the 1.91" displays on the Yoever and Jugeman watches, makes reading messages and using watch faces easier, but it usually means a bulkier case. A standard or compact screen, like the 1.43" AMOLED on the Soudorv or the 1.43" on the Tiwain, is lighter and less obtrusive. If you mostly want notifications and quick glances, a standard screen is enough; if you want to read text and use apps on the wrist, go for a 1.8" or larger panel.
Bluetooth calling: what you get
Bluetooth calling lets you answer or make calls from the watch while it is connected to your phone. The Bluetooth Classic radio, as described by the Bluetooth SIG, supports point-to-point audio streaming, which is what makes watch calls possible. In this list, most calling picks use a 1.8" or larger screen and pair with both iPhone and Android. The newer Bluetooth 5.4 on the Soudorv watch is the latest version stated in the pool. If you do not want to pull out your phone for short calls, a calling watch is worth the small price premium.
GPS: when you actually need it
GPS is a stated feature on only a few picks under $100, including the Amazfit Bip Max and the Tiwain Military Smart Watch. GPS.gov describes the Global Positioning System as a US-owned utility providing positioning, navigation, and timing services. On a watch, built-in GPS lets you track runs and hikes without carrying your phone. If you only walk around the neighborhood with your phone in your pocket, phone-based positioning is often enough and you can save money by skipping GPS. If you run outdoors and want a record of your route, a watch with built-in GPS is the one to pick.
Water resistance: IP67 vs IP68 and unrated
The pool lists some watches with IP67 protection (the TRAUSI women's watch) and some with IP68 protection (the TORJALPH). IP67 means protection against dust and temporary immersion, while IP68 means protection against dust and continuous immersion, which is better for swimming or heavy rain. Several picks in this list do not state any water resistance level, so if you plan to wear the watch in the shower or pool, check for an explicit IP classification. The difference between IP67 and IP68 is the depth and duration of immersion they can handle; for everyday splashes either works, but for swimming an IP68 classification is the safer choice.
Kids' watches: games vs calling
Kids' watches under $100 split into two groups. Game and camera watches, like the Cosjoype and the WZWNEER, need no phone plan and no cellular connection, and they focus on entertainment such as games, a video camera, and a music player. Calling and GPS watches, like the Berilona 4G, need a cellular plan and offer video calls, SOS, and location tracking. The FTC's COPPA Rule gives parents control over what information online services collect from children under 13, so if you buy a connected kids' watch, review the maker's privacy policy and see what data the watch and its app collect. For younger kids who just want play, a game watch is simpler; for older kids who go out on their own, a calling watch gives you peace of mind.
Fitness and health sensors: what the stated specs cover
Most picks state heart rate and sleep monitoring, and a few add SpO2 (blood oxygen) or blood pressure tracking, such as the coioc and the Popglory watches. These are general wellness features, not medical devices. The FDA's general wellness policy covers low-risk products that promote a healthy lifestyle and are not intended to diagnose or treat a disease. If you want data for motivation and daily trends, heart rate and sleep tracking are fine. If you have a heart condition or need a clinical measurement like an ECG, the Apple Watch's ECG app is a medical-device feature you would not find under $100; watches in this price range do not claim ECG. For general wellness, the stated sensors on these picks are enough to track steps, sleep, and workouts.
Questions
What is the best smartwatch under $100?
The Amazfit Bip Max Smart Watch is the best overall pick under $100 for its 2.07" AMOLED display and built-in GPS. It offers a larger screen and satellite positioning that most other watches in this price range do not state. If you prefer a rugged watch, the Tiwain Military Smart Watch adds GPS and a 30-day standby, and if you want a large-screen calling watch, the Yoever Smart Watch has a 1.91" display with Bluetooth calling.
Can I make phone calls from a smartwatch under $100?
Yes. Many picks in this list state Bluetooth calling, including the Yoever, Cillso, and Blackview watches. Bluetooth calling uses the Bluetooth Classic radio to stream audio between the watch and your phone, so you can answer or make calls from the wrist. You need to keep your phone nearby because these watches do not have cellular on their own. For a kids' watch with standalone calling, the Berilona 4G has cellular but requires a plan.
Do budget smartwatches have GPS?
Only a few. The Amazfit Bip Max and the Tiwain Military Smart Watch state built-in GPS in this list. Most other picks under $100 do not list GPS, which means they likely use the phone's location when you track a workout. If you run or hike and want a route record without carrying your phone, choose one of the two GPS picks. If you usually have your phone with you, phone-based positioning is fine and you can save money.
Are heart rate and SpO2 monitors on budget watches accurate?
These watches state heart rate, sleep, and in some cases SpO2 monitoring, but they are general wellness features, not medical devices. The FDA's general wellness policy covers low-risk products intended to maintain or encourage a healthy lifestyle, and it does not apply to devices that diagnose or treat a disease. For daily trends and motivation, the sensors are useful, but you should not rely on them for clinical decisions. For a medical-grade measurement like an ECG, you would need a device such as an Apple Watch, which is not in this price range.
What is the best kids' smartwatch under $100?
It depends on what you want. For games and a camera, the Cosjoype Kids Smart Watch has 26 games, a video camera, and learning cards with no phone plan needed. For calling and location, the Berilona 4G Kids Smart Watch has GPS, video calls, SOS, and a class mode, but it requires a cellular plan. Review the maker's privacy policy before buying a connected kids' watch, since the COPPA Rule gives parents control over what personal information online services can collect from children under 13.
