The display has a screen resolution of 320 x 302 pixels and a pixel density of 305ppi. Similar to the Bip U, the Pop allows its users to choose from 50 watch faces and create a few custom faces with personal photos.

The Pop has a total of 60 fitness activity tracking modes, including walking, running, trekking, swimming, freestyle, biking, and more. Similar to most watches, one can track steps, calories, distance traveled, and more. Apart from heart rate monitoring and sleep tracking, the Pop can also do blood oxygen level monitoring. There’s a SpO2 sensor similar to Apple Watch Series 6 that requires you to keep your hands stable to get a reading.

The Pop can alert users about the strain levels during intense workouts. The watch can also monitor stress levels and suggest breathing exercises to calm down. The Chinese model gets psychological cycle management as well. The PAI tracking system also makes it to the Pop, awarding scores based on various fitness parameters.
