I also wear a Venu 3 for similar reasons. I never download a bunch of apps or use all the things when I have a galaxy watch or Apple Watch so getting my notifications and being able to see phone calls and stuff is good enough. Not having to charge the battery often is SO NICE. I charge it when I’m in the shower every day and never hate to charge it any more than that but if I want to go on a shorter trip I also don’t need to bring a charger. Win win

It feels weird that you recommend the pixel watch as "the one where you can get all the features", when it requires a paid subscription to fitbit to use all the features.

@selilatte 3 месяца назад

Yes, I find a lot of the reviewers forget to mention there is a Fitbit subscription.

@maarteneh 8 месяцев назад

When it comes down to training, I tend to use my Forerunner 245. Good performance, great battery life, good information, and solid, no touch screen that messes up things when wrapping up my fists and still usable when it's wet, but the smart functionality is limited. That's also my complaint with the Venu 2S I used to have. For that matter, the Pixel watch 2 is much more suitable, as well as the Apple watch (though it's amazingly ugly) that I once had when I still used iPhones.

My first smart watch was an Apple Watch and I wasn't a big fan of it. After that I got a Garmin and it worked much better for fitness but things you take for granted on smart watches such as temperature don't work that well. Garmin is hampered by it's software and it's a pain to make simple changes to the watch faces. I started using a Pixel and eventually bought a Pixel Watch. It is by far the favorite smart watch I've used. Even though I have switched back to an iPhone mainly due to a carrier deal, I continue to wear the Pixel Watch. I'll keep my Pixel around to sync with my watch and I can still view the stats on my iPhone through the Fitbit app.

@rav_666_ 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for writing this! I want all pixel tech but afraid that the pixel watch isn't that great since I've heard the Apple watch can do so much. You may have changed my mind to go with my first choice of a pixel watch :)

@AndrewUKLondon 7 месяцев назад

Excellent review. I’m after something that can last me at hear a week without charging (ideally 10 days); counts steps; has haptic alarm and countdown and nfc payment. Any suggestions appreciated! Ai far it’s the Garmin Venu Sq2 that’s ahead on points. A nice to have with be calendar synchronisation (Microsoft or Google). Another nice to have is boxing mode to count arm movements (like the Xiaomi smart band 8- no nfc:(). {Using an Air Watch 6 with my non Samsung android phone, doing updates using my iPad}.

@zetroxela1884 7 месяцев назад

I'm not one to want to stand out, so the s9 is perfect for me. The Apple Watch is the most popular watch in the world after all. I also like the fact that it seamlessly fits in with the rest of the apple products. Although, I do wish I had went with the ultra 2 instead. I like the bigger size because I'm low vision-legally blind.

@dutchboynl2082 8 месяцев назад

I have a Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and love it, I have the LTE model with one number sharing from T-Mobile so I can leave my phone at home and can do google maps, make and receive calls, make WhatsApp and lots of apps that don't need my phone. I am not so much into hte health stuff except the Blood pressure functiion which is very accurate. Also Strava works great,.

@pbmaxx1269 3 месяца назад

Mike, I know this is going to sound silly but I don't want something robust. I want something that tells me the time, and alerts me to calls and messages by vibration. Not really looking for any other features. Currently have a Fitbit Sense2 and it's much more than I need, but I love the 7 day battery life. Am I best where I'm at, or is there something better? I'd honestly even be fine with a ring instead of a watch. Just something to let me know a text or call is coming in. I don't always feel my phone, but love that I'm alerted on my wrist. If it weren't for that I'd stick with analog watches.

I'm a teacher and a dance choreographer. I've never owned a smart watch but I'm looking for something that will mostly help with reminders, notifications, heart rate ( I have high blood pressure) and connect to my phone for music control through a Bluetooth. I have a Samsung sung phone but a tight teacher salary budget. What do you recommend?

I tracked my fitness for month and then realized i wasn't training for the iron man so what was the point. I've had Fitbit charge 5 and currently ticwatch 5 pro. The phone integration is nice with these (especially the ticwatch) but in the end id rather just have a classic watch that never needs a new battery or has to be charged. The only fitness feature i really want is a stopwatch with lap times.

@rokko_hates_japan Месяц назад

I do find having a fitness tracker helps keep up motivation. But I've always thought smart watches are really dumb. My Casio was $12, has stop watch and laps, and a 10 year battery life. But recently I hate taking my phone anywhere, and I'm wondering if a cellular watch can completely replace my phone?

I agree about the Garmin watches. They support Spotify, Deezer, and Amazon Prime (paid) music. There's rumor that Google will hopefully provide a RU-vid Music app soon, but I'm not holding my breath. It would be really nice to have. You can of course do it old school: download your MP3s directly from your computer to the watch over your charging cable. I little clunky and it only works with Windows or MacOS, so no Linux or ChromeOS.
