My 4th smartwatch! I’ve been through different smartwatches and so far this watch has been really great and I’m loving the fact that it has Fitbit integration while being a Wear OS device – the best one yet!
What stood out to me:
1. Google maps integration - no need to hold your phone when navigating in the city!
2. Google wallet integration – pretty convenient to use while shopping
3. Google assistant – I can turn off my smart lights with the lights anywhere inside the home
4. Health features – the heartrate tracking and ECG app helps during exercise and heart health. Again, the Fitibit integration!
5. The crown! The tactile feedback when using it to navigate through apps/options is really neat.
6. Controlling music/media from the watch was pretty cool too, I didn’t have to reach to my phone while switching music and made the overall working desk workflow easier
Other bonus features that surprised me:
1. Access to Google play apps – there are more options!
2. Find your device – I recently found out that I could find the watch from my phone and vice-versa! This feature was pretty cool esp. during the times where you can’t find where you left your phone (it’s usually under a pillow in the couch!)
3. Official watch bands sold by Google – which I am looking forward to buy in the future =-).
The only gripe I have is one that my day to day credit card doesn’t support Google Pay so I’ve had to use another one – this one isn’t really an issue with the watch and is more of an issue with the provider :-/. I guess its time to switch providers =D.
Overall, if you’re ingrained to the Android/Google ecosystem or use an Android device then this watch will serve you well.
