As the title asks. I need one of those smartband toys, which lets you inform for an incoming call and text messages by vibrating. I was actually going for the Sony SWR10 which is going on for around 5k on eBay nowadays but just thought about asking here.

Again, I am not looking for a smartwatch (I don't need to see the time), I just need a band which will vibrate to inform me about texts and calls, that's all. And my budget is strictly restricted within ₹5000-5500.

Thanks in advance.

Sony's is the only one which is available and meets your purpose I guess.

Samsung's alternatives are too expensive and come with a screen.

Nah mate, no Xiaomi for me, not yet.
[MENTION=26711]ico[/MENTION]: Yeah, that's the only option in that budget it seems. Just bought one. I actually like the newer version which comes with the e-ink LCD or something, but way too costly! Damn I am so cheap :(

And please close this topic.
