Smartwatches represent a new generation of technology: With these small, digital all-rounders, you can read your e-mails and text messages, log your health data or make phone calls. But that’ just the beginning: these watches can detect when their owner falls and call for help in an emergency. At the same time, they also look chic.
Available in a slim, minimalist round design or as an angular variant, smartwatches are a handy companion during sports, at work or during leisure time. These electronic wristwatches monitor sleep, serve as a navigation system and are capable of playing music. They are usually linked to a smartphone and must be compatible with its operating system. The performance spectrum is far greater than that of an analog watch from classic watch manufacturers.

Best Smartwatches to Buy
We have selected models that have caught our eye with a combination of features and functions which outperform the competition, or have impressed us with their design. The models we’ve selected are ranked from the more expensive and therefore more equipped to the more affordable and less equipped.
- Price: From $210
Fitbit’s most advanced fitness wristband to date, the Charge 5, might be a bit overrated, but you can’t dismiss its high-end features. The unassuming wrist accessory features an AMOLED display, a secure wristband fit, and multiple sensors. You can rely on the electrodes on the sides of the body for ECG recording and stress measurement. In addition, the wristband measures sleep quality, steps taken, heart rate, and overall physical and mental well-being.
We must criticize Fitbit for the fact that the wristband does not have all the announced features since the launch. They only came after it had already been on the market for a month. Its most notable addition is the everyday readiness assessment, which will tell you if you’re ready to exercise today or if you’d be better off resting.
When compared to other smart wristbands, we can point out the support for Fitbit Pay watch payments. What we like less, however, is the price. You could already buy some older, more complex models of the watch for this. Together with the wristband, you get a free six-month Fitbit Premium membership, however, even so, the price makes it an undoubtedly high-end wristband to consider. Stay tuned for more of the best smartwatches currently on the market.
