Recommendations please!
Hi there!
I'm looking to get a new smartwatch, but am having a hard time deciding on brands.
I currently own a Samsung Galaxy 6 smartwatch, and have personally been pretty disappointed with it.
The battery life is really poor for my taste, lasting two days with AOD off. I also hadn't realized the incompatibility between Samsung and Huawei prior to purchase so the loopholes I have to jump through just to connect it is frustrating. Especially with all the issues I have with it that then require me to factory reset it a few times every couple months.
I was hoping to find a different brand that allows:
- Much longer battery life, 10 days to 2 weeks? Even more??
- Texting (keyboard, not pre-selected texts) and Calling via Bluetooth
- Sleep Tracking
- Heart rate, ECG (EKG?)
- Stress Tracking
- Steps
- Audio Recording (I love using voice memos)
I'm not a very active person so I am not too concerned on all the swimming, running, etc options available, but would not be upset having them in case I decide to become active lol
I currently own a Hauwei P30 Pro, but it is nearly 5-6 years old, so when I need to switch I'll be going Samsung, or some other Android.
Thanks so much!!!
