Brand Story
Human-Centered. Smartly Designed.
HI-TIME was born from the founder’s years of expertise in smart product design and development.We believe that truly valuable wearable technology should start with people—addressing subtle pain points in everyday life and seamlessly integrating into every usage scenario. Our focus lies in holistic smart wearable design, covering everything from UI/UX interfaces, industrial aesthetics, material craftsmanship, and module integration to power-efficient systems and battery optimization. All of this is led entirely by our in-house R&D team, ensuring that every function is rooted in real user needs and every detail exists to enhance the user experience.
HI-TIME is not just about developing wearable devices — we are designing a human–machine rhythm for daily life. A system that quietly supports users across living, working, and health management.We believe the future of wearable tech lies not only in technological advancement, but in how sincerely it understands people, connects with them, and improves the interaction between humans and technology.That is why "smart design" is and always will be at the heart of everything we do.
Brand Origin
HI-TIME is a smart wearable brand under HI-TIME Technology Co., Ltd., formerly known as TCRD Technology Co., Ltd., founded in 2017.Originally focused on user-driven innovation in wearable and custom electronics, the team evolved alongside growing product lines and maturing technologies.
In 2025, the company moved to the Hsinchu Industrial Park and became a certified MIT (Made in Taiwan) manufacturer — marking a shift from pure R&D to full in-house development and production. This allowed HI-TIME to take complete control of design, manufacturing, and quality, streamlining the entire process from concept to mass production.
Rebranded as HI-TIME, the company now combines innovative design with trusted MIT manufacturing to deliver high-quality, reliable smart wearables and lifestyle tech solutions.
Why MIT Manufacturing Matters for HI-TIME:
Agile Production
Fast design iterations and sample output to meet market needs.
Reliable Quality
Local production enables real-time testing and transparency.
Efficient Supply Chain
Close integration with tooling, electronics, packaging, and assembly partners.
Global Trust
The MIT label enhances brand credibility and market recognition.
HI-TIME is more than a startup — it’s a fully integrated smart tech brand combining design, manufacturing, quality, and innovation, representing the next generation of MIT-based wearable technology.
