How to choose a good smart watch?

As you already understood, different manufacturers have their own views on prices, features and even software components. Therefore, when deciding which smart watch to choose, you need to compare, given the current standards:

  1. Display. Talking about sizes does not make sense, since everyone has their own requirements for design and convenience. It is more important to pay attention to the type of matrix and coverage. If the price issue isn’t worth it, then it’s definitely better to focus on screens with transreflective properties that do not light up when exposed to sunlight.At the same time on sale you can find gadgets on different matrices. Optimally these are IPS and OLED. Such screens guarantee good visibility from different angles;
  2. Sensors. There can be many additional functions, and it does not make sense to describe all kinds of functions. Here it is worth mentioning the most popular sensors, including the NFC function for making contactless payments, a built-in speaker with a microphone, and support for GSM / 3G / LTE. In addition, smart watches can combine the functions of fitness bracelets (count calories, control sleep, heartbeat, etc.);
  3. Strap. An important parameter if you constantly wear this device. The most practical option is traditionally considered hypoallergenic rubber. More expensive models may have a metal and leather strap.
  4. Housing. The choice of buyers are offered metal, aluminum, ceramic, steel, plastic and even gold models. The choice depends on the finances and your preferences.

Tips for choosing a smart watch for a child

The main advantage of such devices is the ability to always control the location of the child using a smartphone or tablet. Such devices can be equipped with a port for a SIM card, which also provides for making calls, and replacing a massive phone. If you do not plan to overpay, focus on devices with a small amount of memory. Budget models allows you to add 2-3 numbers of parents to the database.

As for GPS, the option can be implemented in different ways. Some devices not only allow you to control the movements of the child, but also set the “forbidden zones”. When they cross, you will receive an alert on your smartphone.

An important parameter in this case is battery life. The optimal battery capacity is from 200 to 600 mAh.

    I do not think that smart watches should be so expensive. This is not even a full-fledged gadget, but rather an accessory. For 1600 rubles, I will most likely buy a GEOZON Classic model in the near future.

    Apple Watch 5 is very cool, the functionality and quality are beyond competition, it's a pity the price tag is too big for me. Not a bad watch from Garmin, Vivomove Style is an excellent choice in the middle price range with an interesting design. I plan to purchase Amazfit for the price and functionality suitable for my purposes.
