RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

The only non-watch thing I want from my smartwatch is to replace my phone's ringer. I get notifications as a vibration on my wrist instead of a sound.
I dream of having a watch that just does that without all the body-tracking mumbo jumbo. I dont need to know my blood's oxygen level, and I certainly dont want my watch to have GPS capabilities.
Edit: I need to specify that I've only owned Chinese watches/smartbands with more than 20 days battery life. Having to charge a watch every day sounds ludicrous to me.
I'm sure that someone, somewhere has made a Bluetooth gizmo that vibrates on calls.
