Smart Watches

[Milnero]

I have been looking for a little while at smart watches, has anyone any experience with them?

I don't use Facebook or the other various social media apps however I would quite like a smart watch that's able to receive notifications from services like that.

I would also like it to have NFC for payments and some kind of fitness/health tracking although I don't do much fitness

I don't have an Apple I-Phone so it needs to be Android compatible with my current Hauwei p20 Pro phone.

Thanks,

Well I have been looking for a smart watch for ta while, I would like a decent sleep tracker (I have sleep issues) on it but sadly I do not think I will get one, so be looking at this thread with interest

However here is my recommendations

Garmin Vivomove HR, really nice look in my view but no NFC

Garmin Vivoactive 3, has Garmin Pay but no one takes it in the UK yet i do not think

Ticwatch Pro, has NFC, good battery life

Huawei Watch 2 seems good value for money but no NFC, although I have a band 4 and it really is not very good, the sleep tracker is rubbish

The one I was going to buy yesterday but got called away and not ordered it, Fossil FTW4018, although the battery life is poor, it was £135 yesterday afternoon at Amazon, came back to buy it an hour ago and it has gone up to £200.15!

Eveshop Smart Watch seems a bargin at £59

Two Watches that appear to do everything are the Kospet Prime 4G and the ZeblazeThor 5 PRO they are full on Android watches so will do pretty much everything a smart phone will.

I'm just not sure on the styling or the size of them. they are BIG!

The Tick watch looks really quite nice but if you go for the 4G version the only micro sim card compatible is Vodafone.

The one I bought was the Samsung Galaxy Watch, to go with my OnePlus 5T. It's got the Samsung Health app which tracks a few activities. In theory it has NFC via SamsungPay, but I'm not convinced that it's functional here in the UK.

Samsung all the way. Head and shoulders above any of the Android Wear watches. Zero lag and they just work the way you want them to.
