海外TECH	Engadget	The best smartwatches for 2023: Choosing the right wearable for you	https://www.engadget.com/best-smartwatches-153013118.html?src=rss	Just a few years ago the case for buying a smartwatch was unclear The market wasn t as saturated as it is today and features were more limited Today the wearable world is filled with various high quality options and a few key players like the Apple Watch Samsung Galaxy Watch and Fitbit Versa have muscled their way to the front of the pack with their smart features Chances are if you re reading this guide you ve probably already decided that it s time to upgrade whatever gadget s on your wrist be it a standard timepiece or an aging smartwatch Regardless of which category you fall into the list of specs you ll want to consider before deciding which is the best smartwatch for you to buy is a long one and we ll help you make sense of it What to look for in a smartwatchCompatibilityApple Watches only work with iPhones while Wear OS devices play nice with both iOS and Android phones Smartwatches made by Samsung Garmin Fitbit and others are also compatible with Android and iOS but you ll need to install a companion app on your smartphone The smartwatch OS will also dictate the type and number of third party apps you ll have access to Many of these aren t useful though making this factor a fairly minor one in the grand scheme of things PriceThe best smartwatches generally cost between and Compared to budget smartwatches which cost between and these pricier devices have advanced operating systems communications music and fitness features They also often include perks like onboard GPS tracking music storage and NFC which budget devices generally don t Some companies make specialized fitness watches Those can easily run north of and we d only recommend them to serious athletes Luxury smartwatches from brands like TAG Heuer and Hublot can also reach sky high prices but we wouldn t endorse any of them These devices can cost more than and you re usually paying for little more than a brand name and some needlessly exotic selection of build materials Battery lifeBattery 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 processor support extended battery modes that promise up to five days of battery life on a charge ーif you re willing to shut off most features aside from you know displaying the time Snapdragon s next gen Wear and processors were announced in but only a handful of devices some of which aren t even available yet are using them so far Other models can last five to seven days but they usually have fewer features and lower quality displays Meanwhile some fitness watches can last weeks on a single charge CommunicationAny smartwatch worth considering delivers call text and app notifications to your wrist Call and text alerts are self explanatory but if those mean a lot to you consider a watch with LTE They re more expensive than their WiFi only counterparts but cellular connectivity allows the smartwatch to take and receive phone calls and do the same with text messages without your device nearby As far as app alerts go getting them delivered to your wrist will let you glance down to the watch face and see if you absolutely need to check your phone right now nbsp Fitness trackingActivity tracking is a big reason why people turn to smartwatches An all purpose timepiece should function as a fitness tracker logging your steps calories and workouts and most of today s wearables have a heart rate monitor as well Many smartwatches fitness features include a built in 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 Garmin 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 Health tracking on smartwatches has also seen advances over the years Both Apple and Fitbit devices can estimate blood oxygen levels and measure ECGs But the more affordable the smartwatch the less likely it is that it has these kinds of advanced health tracking features if collecting those kinds of wellness metrics is important to you you ll have to pay for the privilege EngadgetMusicYour watch can not only track your morning runs but also play music while you re exercising Many smartwatches let you save your music locally so you can connect wireless earbuds via Bluetooth and listen to tunes without bringing your phone Those that don t have onboard storage for music usually have on watch music controls so you can control playback without whipping out your phone And if your watch has LTE local saving isn t required ーyou ll be able to stream music directly from the watch to your paired earbuds DisplaysMost wearables have touchscreens and we recommend getting one that has a full color touchscreen Some flagships like the Apple Watch have LTPO displays which stands for low temperature polycrystalline oxide These panels have faster response times and are more power efficient resulting in a smoother experience when one interacts with the touchscreen and in some cases longer battery lives You won t see significant gains with the latter though because the extra battery essentially gets used up when these devices have always on displays as most flagship wearables do today Some smartwatches have this feature on by default while others let you enable it via tweaked settings This smart feature allows you to glance down at your watch to check the time health stats or 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 touchscreens will automatically turn off to conserve battery life and you ll have to intentionally check your watch to turn on the display again NFCMany smartwatches have NFC letting you pay for things without your wallet using contactless payments After saving your credit or debit card information you can hold your smartwatch up to an NFC reader to pay for a cup of coffee on your way home from a run Keep in mind that different watches use different payment systems Apple Watches use Apple Pay Wear OS devices use Google Pay Samsung devices use Samsung Pay and so forth Apple Pay is one of the most popular NFC payment systems with support for multiple banks and credit cards in different countries while Samsung and Google Pay work in fewer regions It s also important to note that both NFC payment support varies by device as well for both Samsung and Google s systems Best overall Apple WatchWith the Apple Watch Series the company appears to be focusing on ways for you to interact with the device without having to touch the screen It introduced a new Double Tap gesture that s based on its Assistive Touch accessibility tool allowing users to use a pinching action to navigate the system If you re unable to use your other hand to swipe for example you can Double Tap to bring up your Smart Stack or dismiss an alarm The feature won t be available until later this year and it s not something you can do throughout the entire watchOS interface But when it does work it could make little tasks a lot easier Dismissing timers while cooking or starting a workout tracker when you re already in the middle of your run are just some ways Double Tap could be very helpful Apple also brought on device Siri processing to the Series thanks to its new S system in package SiP processor This way the assistant responds slightly more quickly but more importantly it can answer you even when you re offline It might not be able to pull web results when you re disconnected but it can at least control your music and timers Later this year Siri Health Requests will arrive allowing you to ask it for your sleep move and workout data too Throw in a new Find My iPhone interface thanks to a second generation ultra wideband UWB chip brighter screen that also gets dimmer at night as well as a refreshed interface via watchOS and the Series feels like a meaty upgrade from its predecessor The increased focus on Siri and touch free interaction methods is also another advantage that the Apple Watch has over its competitors and the company remains the king of the smartwatch category Though it still lags its rivals on sleep tracking the Series is the best smartwatch out there especially for iPhone users Read our full review of the Apple Watch Series Best budget smartwatch Fitbit Versa Dropping on a smartwatch isn t feasible for everyone which is why we recommend the Fitbit Versa as the best sub option Even though Fitbit has come out with the Versa and the Versa remains our favorite budget watch because it offers a bunch of features at a great price You get all of these essentials Fitbit s solid exercise tracking abilities including auto workout detection sleep tracking water resistance connected GPS blood oxygen SpO tracking and a six day battery life It also supports Fitbit Pay using NFC and it has built in Amazon Alexa as a voice assistant While the Versa typically costs we ve seen it for as low as Best Android smartwatch Samsung Galaxy Watch The best smartwatch for Android users has long been one of Samsung s Galaxy watches Though Google may have given the company some competition with the debut of the Pixel Watch last year it still trails behind on battery life and built in features And with the Galaxy Watch series this year Samsung continues to reign as smartwatch king for non Apple users One of the company s biggest advantages is its hallmark spinning bezel which went away last year only to be brought back in s Galaxy Watch Classic This model not only resurrects the fidget spinner esque ring but also manages to be smaller and lighter than before The bezel is slightly thinner while still offering a smooth tactile way to navigate Wear OS without tapping at the screen It s not a huge change from the Galaxy Watch Classic so if you re wondering about upgrading based on size alone don t expect much of a difference You ll appreciate that the displays are brighter though and therefore easier to read in direct sunlight What makes the Galaxy Watch more compelling than previous models are its updated health and fitness tracking tools The onboard skin temperature sensor now works overnight to help keep track of ovulation and menstrual cycles while new sleep coaching tools offer greater insight on how to get better rest The company also added an irregular heart rhythm monitoring feature and will alert you if it detects anomalies in your cardio patterns Runners will also appreciate the new personalized heart rate zones which will help keep you precisely in the cardio ranges that are right for you rather than those generated based on population data As usual the Galaxy Watch series also brings processor upgrades and some battery life improvements alongside more apps optimized for your wrist All told the set of software updates coming to this year s model including support for Samsung Wallet instead of just Pay make the Galaxy Watch more useful than before Just know that if you have a slightly older model most of these will likely trickle down to your device soon If you re considering trading in for a newer model it s worth paying attention to the actual hardware differences For Android users thinking of getting their first smartwatch though the Galaxy Watch or Watch Classic are the best all rounded option available Read our full review of the Samsung Galaxy Watch Stylish smartwatches Fossil and moreFossilYes there are still companies out there trying to make fashionable smartwatches Back when wearables were novel and generally ugly brands like Fossil Michael Kors and Skagen found their niche in stylish smartwatches that took cues from analog timepieces You also have the option to pick up a hybrid smartwatch from companies like Withings and Garmin these devices look like classic wrist watches but incorporate some limited functionality like activity tracking and heart rate monitoring They remain good options if you prefer that look but thankfully wearables made by Apple Samsung Fitbit and others have gotten much more attractive over the past few years Ultimately the only thing you can t change after you buy a smartwatch is its case design If you re not into the Apple Watch s squared off corners all of Samsung s smartwatches have round cases that look a little more like a traditional watch Most wearables are offered in a choice of colors and you can pay extra for premium materials like stainless steel Once you decide on a case your band options are endless there are dozens of first and third party watch straps available for most major smartwatches and for both larger and smaller wrists allowing you to change up your look whenever you please Other smartwatches we ve testedApple Watch Ultra The Apple Watch Ultra is probably overkill for most people but it has a ton of extra features like extra waterproofing to track diving an even more accurate GPS and the biggest battery of any Apple Watch to date Apple designed it for the most rugged among us but for your average person it likely has more features than they d ever need Apple Watch SEThe Apple Watch SE is less feature rich than the flagship model but it will probably suffice for most people We actually regard the Watch SE as the best smartwatch option for first time buyers or people on stricter budgets You ll get all the core Apple Watch features as well as things like fall and crash detection noise monitoring and Emergency SOS but you ll have to do without more advanced hardware perks like an always on display a blood oxygen sensor an ECG monitor and a skin temperature sensor Google Pixel WatchThe Google Pixel Watch debuted in after many years of rumors and it served as the first marriage of Google s WearOS and Fitbit s expertise in the health monitoring space Google purchased Fitbit back in While it s a capable smartwatch its short battery life and strange Fitbit inclusions hold it back from being a true competitor for the Apple Watch and Samsung s Galaxy Watches Garmin Forerunner The Garmin Forerunner is an excellent GPS running watch for serious athletes or those who prize battery life above all else When we tested it we found it to provide accurate distance tracking a killer hour battery life with GPS turned on up to seven days without it and support for onboard music storage and Garmin Pay
