Best Smartwatch Buying Guide

The latest smartwatch releases from Apple and Samsung continue to push the boundaries of wearable technology. With new sensors and enhanced features, the best smartwatches are increasingly focused on personal safety and security, as well as health and fitness - while rounding out existing productivity, entertainment and communication features. Most smartwatches connect to your smartphone and use your mobile connection to make and receive calls and text messages.

A good timepiece does more than just show the time of day; it can enhance your outfit and make you feel good about yourself. A smartwatch can do so much more, from tracking your workouts and measuring your heart rate to providing notifications and access to voice assistants. When you're wearing a connected watch, you can keep your phone in your pocket and use your wrist to complete simple tasks.

Always-on displays

Most flagship smartwatches today have some sort of always-on display, be it a default feature or a setting you can enable. It allows you to glance down at your watch to check the time and any other information you’ve set it to show on its watchface without lifting your wrist. This will no doubt affect your device’s battery life, but thankfully most always-on modes dim the display’s brightness so it’s not running at its peak unnecessarily. Cheaper devices won’t have this feature; instead, their screens will automatically turn off to conserve battery and you’ll have to intentionally check your watch to turn on the display again.

Battery life

Battery life remains one of our biggest complaints about smartwatches, but there’s hope as of late. You can expect two full days from Apple Watches and most Wear OS devices. Watches using the Snapdragon Wear 3100 processor support extended battery modes that promise up to five days on a charge — if you’re willing to shut off most features aside from, you know, displaying the time. Snapdragon’s next-gen Wear 4100 and 4100+ processors were announced in 2020. Meanwhile, some fitness smart watches can last weeks on a single charge.

Fitness tracking

Activity tracking is a big reason why people turn to smartwatches. An all-purpose timepiece should log your steps, calories and workouts, and most of today’s wearables have a heart rate monitor as well.

Many smartwatches also have onboard GPS, which is useful for tracking distance for runs and bike rides. Swimmers will want something water resistant, and thankfully most all-purpose devices now can withstand at least a dunk in the pool. Some smartwatches from companies like Joint are more fitness focused than others and tend to offer more advanced features like heart-rate-variance tracking, recovery time estimation, onboard maps and more.
