Smart watches

There are many different smartwatches for many different purposes. The key to choosing the best smartwatch would be deciding on what you’d like to get out of your smartwatch the most. Are you looking to track your sports performance in a particular area? A smartwatch that’s dedicated to a specific sport or exercise can help you improve in a particular area. Are you looking for a fitness tracker watch? Find a smartwatch that can monitor your heartrate, sleep quality and more. Find more information about functions, features, and what to look out for in a smartwatch in our Smartwatch Buying Guide.

Calibrating your smartwatch will require a different technique depending on the make and model of your smartwatch. Find the instructions to do this in your smartwatch’s manual.

Changing the time on your smartwatch is different depending on the make and model of your smartwatch. Find how to do this on yours in the instruction manual that comes with your smartwatch.

Your smartwatch will come with a compatible charger. Each smartwatch will have a different battery life, and the mode that your smartwatch is in can affect how long the battery in your smartwatch lasts. You should make sure your smartwatch is charged regularly to optimise its functions and uses.

You can find which devices are compatible with your smartwatch in its manual. Different smartwatches feature varying compatibility, but all of our smartwatches are compatible with the latest version of Android or iOS, as they operate with Wear OS.

Smartwatches come with varying water resistance. From a water resistance of 30m to up to 100m, your smartwatch is designed to be resistant to different levels of water pressure. In most cases, it’s better to limit the amount of water that your smartwatch comes into contact with. High-tech materials such as titanium, sapphire crystal, and stainless steel all help your smartwatch uphold its level of water resistance.

Smartwatches calculate your fitness levels based on monitoring features like your heartrate. Overall, a fitness tracker cannot be completely accurate all of the time. Your smartwatch uses advanced technology to calculate things such as the number of calories you’ve burned, but this can vary from time to time. However, your smartwatch is usually accurate enough to be beneficial for most purposes. In terms of timekeeping, your smartwatch will calculate the time via signals from satellites. Factors such as the weather can affect these signals from time to time, so can affect the accuracy of the time shown. This accuracy would usually be affected by around 5-10 seconds.

To be able to use most smartwatches, owning an iPhone or Android to pair it with is essential. However, there are some Garmin smartwatches that do not need to be paired with a smartphone to function. Most smartwatches depend on your smartphone to function, however fitness trackers usually do not. If you’d like a smartwatch that has the features of a fitness tracker, a model like the Garmin Fenix is perfect.

Our smartwatches do not need a sim card to operate. Your smartwatch can pair with your phone via Bluetooth or the internet, so you can still receive notifications from your smartphone. However, if your smartwatch is not connected to your phone, you may not be able to use certain functions.

Our smartwatches measure your heartrate rather than blood pressure levels. You can find the fitness features that your smartwatch monitors on the manual or within the description of your smartwatch.

A smartwatch is a type of wearable technology that comes with all the features you may need during your everyday life. With advanced technology and driven by a battery feature, your smartwatch is paired with your smartphone so you can access things from call and message notifications, fitness tracking and more at the flick of a wrist.

Buying a smartwatch is a great investment if you’re looking for a quality piece of high functioning, wearable technology to enhance your lifestyle. Our smartwatches come in a range of different styles, materials, sizes, and price ranges, so you can find one that’s tailored to you. If you’d like to be able to access the functions on your smartphone at your wrist, or monitor your health and wellbeing levels more precisely to improve your fitness, a smartwatch is definitely worth buying.

A smartwatch will vary in price due to its features, materials, technology, and manufacture. Swiss smartwatches are usually more expensive than smartwatches from other tech brands.
