Compatibility

Check if the smartwatch is compatible with your phone, so you benefit from all its features. Huawei watches, for example, run on HarmonyOS and are compatible with Android and iOS devices. Apple Watches use WatchOS, which is exclusively compatible with iPhones, while Galaxy Watches run on WearOS and are designed for Samsung Galaxy phones and other Android devices.  

Style and Size

If you are into classic-designed watches, then the Huawei and Samsung Galaxy Watch series offer you elegant and robust options. If you prefer a sleek, modern look. Both Apple Watch and Fitbit have iconic square displays.

Choosing the right screen size to match your wrist is crucial. Square screens typically range between 35.8 mm and 51 mm, while circular screens span 33 mm to 38.1 mm. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 series offers a wide selection of sizes to suit every preference. 

Battery Life

Features like sleep tracking or round-the-clock fitness monitoring require wearing the watch most of the time. This is why you should look for a watch with a long battery life and fast charging capabilities. The Huawei Watch GT5 stands out with a battery life of up to 14 days. Similarly, some Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 models offer up to 30 hours of battery life with fast charging. 

Design & Durability

For a modern, stylish smartwatch to keep you connected and track your daily activities, aluminum or stainless-steel materials are ideal. However, if you’re into adventurous sports like mountain climbing, cycling, or diving, then durability matters. The Apple Watch Ultra 2, made of highly weather-resistant titanium, is a great choice.
