I have a Samsung watch 6. But I dunno… I’m feeling like I wanna worry less about charging devices recently. And this Casio F 105 W looks great and was cheap.

Maybe its the boomer in me but I just can’t see any major benefits of having a smart watch. I’m not saying there aren’t any but to some degree I feel as though my smart phone is more than enough tech I need with me day to day
They are absolutely amazing for tracking and staying motivated with doing workouts. Beyond that imo there’s not much on there that is all that groundbreaking. I enjoy my smartwatch for all its bells and whistles, but I wouldn’t have purchased it if I wasn’t trying to get myself into running.
Having your credit card there is very convenient.
The only non-watch thing I want from my smartwatch is to replace my phone’s ringer. I get notifications as a vibration on my wrist instead of a sound.
I dream of having a watch that just does that without all the body-tracking mumbo jumbo. I dont need to know my blood’s oxygen level, and I certainly dont want my watch to have GPS capabilities.
Edit: I need to specify that I’ve only owned Chinese watches/smartbands with more than 20 days battery life. Having to charge a watch every day sounds ludicrous to me.
The only positive they offer is workout tracking. In a case like that, you get something cheap that’s specifically made for workouts (like a Fitbit).
NFC payment is cool to use
GenX here. I’ve had 2 and just never really used them. And I have 16 other watches and never wear the smart one!
