How To Pick the Best Smartwatch 2017

There are tons of choices when it comes to picking the best smartwatch for you. There are lots of things to consider like Which operating system do you need? How long is the battery life? And what are the features to look for?  

Price of a Good Smartwatch
The cost of smartwatch starts from around $100 to more than $700. At the very top end of this price range, you will often be paying for design, like gold or semi-precious stones, rather than any technological advances.
How to select the Best Smartwatch?
One to most important things to consider when purchasing the best smartwatch 2017, is whether it is compatible with your phone, as you will need to pair or connect them to access texts, incoming calls, emails, and apps. Every smartwatch is not compatible with every device, so make sure to check it’s compatibility before purchasing.

Apart from that, you will have a choice of which operating system you would like your smartwatch to run on and the required feature. For example, do you need a touchscreen or heart-rate monitor?

Android Wear, Tizen or watch-OS?
The type of smartphone you own will tend to dictate the OS you should opt for. For example. the Apple watch series on watch-OS can be used with an iPhone, while Tizen is compatible with Android phones only. Most Androids wears watches will be compatible with both iOS and Android devices, although it is always worth checking that your particular handset is included.

Windows phone users currently do not have much choice and may lose some functionality of the smartwatch and a fitness tracker is completely compatible with Windows.

What features do I need?
Touchscreen: Most smartwatches come with a touchscreen, so you swipe through menus and open apps just as you would on your smartphone. However, some use rotating bezels or side buttons to navigate around. The difference in the interface would not affect a smartwatch’s performance, but it will have some impact on how easy it is to operate.

Fitness features: Few smartwatches have just as many exercise-logging features as a fitness tracker, and few are particularly advanced. For example, the Apple Watch and Samsung Gear S3 have heart rate monitors, built-in GPS so that you can track your running route without taking your phones, and are also waterproof which is suitable for swimmers.

Battery Life: Most smartwatch use a rechargeable battery, but how long battery lasts varies significantly among models. What features a smartwatch has will also have a big impact on the battery life of your device. Large screen models, heart-rate monitor or advanced sensors are likely to run out of juice quite quickly
