01Which is better, the Fastrack Astor FR2 Pro Smartwatch or the Pebble Qore Smart Band?
The Pebble Qore Smart Band scores higher overall (81/100 against 73/100). Pebble Qore Smart Band still wins on battery and value, and it is ₹150 cheaper. If that is what you came for, the verdict above does not apply to you.
02Which is cheaper, the Fastrack Astor FR2 Pro Smartwatch or the Pebble Qore Smart Band?
Today the Fastrack Astor FR2 Pro Smartwatch sells for ₹2,599 at Amazon India and the Pebble Qore Smart Band for ₹2,699 at Flipkart. That makes the Fastrack Astor FR2 Pro Smartwatch ₹100 cheaper right now. Prices are read from the stores’ own pages and change often — check the store before you buy.
03How were the Fastrack Astor FR2 Pro Smartwatch and Pebble Qore Smart Band compared?
On each product’s specification sheet and its live prices across Indian stores. The category scores are worked out from the specifications rather than from hands-on testing, and every product page says which.
04How many products can I compare at once?
Two to five. Five is the ceiling because a table any wider stops being readable on a phone, and a comparison of one product is just that product’s page.
05What is the effective price?
The price after the card and bank offers that apply at that store. The listing price is what you are quoted; the effective price is closer to what actually leaves your account, which is why the two are shown separately rather than one replacing the other.
06What does the deal score mean?
It compares today’s price against the prices recorded here for that same product, not against other products. With fewer than fourteen days of recorded prices there is no score at all — a first-day price has nothing to be cheap against, and saying nothing is better than calling it a bargain.
07Why does the cheaper product sometimes lose?
Because the comparison counts what three years of owning each one costs, not only what it costs to buy. A cheaper machine with a shorter warranty, a dearer battery replacement or a worse resale value can finish behind one that costs more today.
08Does the verdict pick one winner?
It names a winner and then says who should buy the other one instead. Most comparisons on this site are between products that suit different people rather than between a good one and a bad one, and a verdict that hides that is not much use.
