Buying Guide

Choosing the best smart watch is never an easy task. There are numerous varieties available in the market that offers different features at different price points. A smartwatch has many things to look out for. And without knowing them all you can’t decide on which one to purchase.

However, if you are a first-time buyer, we suggest you have an in-depth knowledge of the product. It is only because it will help you figure out your requirements and will guide you in the future. For the same, we have written a buying guide which will help you to select a smartwatch for yourself.

1. Device Compatibility:

One of the most important factors to keep in mind while buying a smartwatch is device compatibility. You need to connect it with your smartphone to operate it. Generally, most of the smartwatches are compatible with both iOS and Android and in some cases, both. Furthermore, some models are only compatible with their own operating system or same brand device. Watch OS is quite fast and consistent whereas Android Wear has customizing options, and works as an open-source model.

2. Display:

Unlike smartphones, every smartwatch has a different display. Few come with a full display screen with amazing color and contrast. And on the other hand, few models come with black and white display settings. Another factor is to check whether the model has touch-screen or button settings. Touch-screen implies gesture that allows you to do all the work just by tapping on the screen or swiping and intuitive scrolling and navigating. However, if you prefer to go with a traditional and simple approach, then smartwatch with button system is an ideal option.

3. Appearance:

Now, this factor may seem a little silly. But when you are investing your money on a gadget you definitely want it to look good and that it compliments your style and fashion. Do you find it aesthetically pleasing or do you think it looks hideous on your wrist?

While we went through all the top models, we considered looking into the appearance factor as well apart from other crucial features. Our list of top best smartwatches will surely compliment your style and look.

4. Notifications:

Like smartphones, smartwatches are also capable of showing a variety of notifications including text messages, social media posts, incoming and missed calls, alarms and much more. Furthermore, there are few watches which lets you customize what all notifications you want to see, display settings, background picture, widgets and many more. As we evaluated the models, we saw a few models allow direct receiving or calling option just like any Bluetooth headset.

5. Battery Life:

There are few smartwatches which come with a battery life that last not even a day while others can last over 1000 days at a time. Moreover, battery life depends on certain factors- how long you are using it, how big is the internal battery, what features it supports and etc. Thus, you need to look out for smartwatches that offer high battery life. But before that make sure you know how you will use it, whether you want to use it outside for work or you want it just for fashion!

6. Special Features:

Additional features will vary from device to device and thus, it is very crucial for you to consider the usage of your smartwatch in your day-to-day life. Here are some of the features to consider:

a) Voice Control:

Voice control is a great feature to look for. It allows you to record memos, give commands, search the web, send and receive messages and much more. This feature can be really helpful.

b) Link Alarm:

While you are out of wireless range, the link alarm feature will help you providing an audible or vibrating alert.

c) Activity Trackers:

If you want to keep a track on all the activities you do, then looking for a smartwatch that offers activity trackers is an ideal option. Look for the built-in accelerometer that measures intensity, heart rate monitor, pedometer that measures steps and more such tracking apps. Also, some smartwatches do come with fully-integrated health app to let you track calorie intake and burnt and offers customized workouts as well.

d) Music:

You can download any app on your device which lets you access music stored on your smartphone. It is always great to store music on your internal memory that will let you access your media library.

e) GPS:

There are few smartwatches that come along with GPS. It helps you to track or map your run. Also, to find your way to certain places around the town.
