Smartwatches are no longer a novelty. I see more wrists strapped into wearables than analog timepieces on a daily basis. Yet, a growing market only means more room for competition and a more confusing shopping experience, as not all devices are built the same. After testing countless smartwatches for many years, I’ve honed in on what makes a device the most valuable, including user experience, feature set, fitness tracking*tools, and sensor package, without forgetting about comfort and looks. Depending on what ecosystem you belong to, the watches below represent the top smartwatches I recommend.
