    For their pricing compared to crappy battery life i wonder someone still uses and buys smartwatches.

          Walter C. Dornez, 28 Feb 2019Agreed. It's the most well thought out, though I do really ... more42mm watch has pretty good size. I had same problem - I didn't like size, too bulky.
          Seems like new Samsung watch could be even smaller than galaxy watch 42mm.

                  It isn't so smart to have a watch that holds only a day or less!

                    Android Wear is horrible.

                      Garmin overpriced crap.

                        The Fitbit Versa could have been a competitor appearance-wise to the Apple watch if they didn't decide to circlejerk themselves and cram their logo into a thicker bottom bezel.

                          Nothing surprising for me because the Apple Watch is by far the best smartwatch you can have.

                            Huawei also have 2 of them, one is Huawei Watch GT, another Honor Magic Watch.
                            But, it's logical that Apple Watch is number one (in sales).

                              So far I've tried apple watch, Samsung watch and Zenwatch 3.
                              And honestly Google is making worst os at the moment.
