Earlier in January, realme TechLife ecosystem brand Dizo debuted the Dizo Watch R. Soon after its release, a number of customers flooded Twitter with multiple complaints of the smartwatch being laggy, being stuck in a boot loop, and continuously vibrating till the battery is drained. The company at the time gave a generic response of ‘looking into the matter’ following which the watch was removed from sales and is not available for purchase as of yet.

Now, according to a MySmartPrice report, Dizo is planning to put the Watch R on sale again and this time the brand has managed to fix the various bugs and issues. Industry sources state that the smartwatches will go on sale again sometime next week on Flipkart.

The company has also been rolling out the v1.58 software patch for the Dizo Watch R which is expected to fix the issues for all the current smartwatch users. However, it still remains a mystery as to how these updates will be applied to the affected smartwatches that have constantly been in a boot loop or a black screen state. However, if you are interested in buying the ‘fixed’ Dizo Watch R, you can take a look at its specs and features below.
