I’m after a cheap ish smart watch, the main feature I’d like is google maps, where it will buzz to turn left or right etc (I work away a lot in random cities so it’s nice not to have your phone out when you are in the rough end of some town, had an attempted mugging in Italy for my phone!)

What’s about? Any recommendations

Thankyou

I've got the huawei watch 2, not the best watch but it's wear os so has google maps and it works fine. It doesn't look fancy so there's no fear of it being stolen. I'm a tradesman and have been wearing it daily for over a year and it's still in really good condition despite the abuse it's been given. You can often find a decent deal on it.

My recommendation is to not wear a smart watch if you're somewhere dodgy. Muggers won't know if it's a £20 piece of crap from Ali Express of a £600.00 Apple vanity watch.

Ticwatch and Fossil Android Wear smartwatches come up on offers for £100 or less, I got my current Ticwatch E (they have replaced it with the E2 now) from Amazon on offer. Keep an eye on HotUKDeals https://www.hotukdeals.com/

Good point, but I won’t be that bothered if they have my £20 special
