Would love to know what you guys think and your reasoning for it. I'm starting to see a lot of Apple Watches/Fitbits/Galaxy Watches in my area compared to more traditional timepieces.

Smart watch.

I appreciate being able to get a (mostly) silent notification for messages, and setting silent alarms.

I charge it weekly. Any more often than that and I'd stop using it.

I love wearing a smart watch. I’d never use anything but a galaxy/Apple watch.

Smartwatch.

I did have a regular watch back in highschool, and all it gave was the time and date. Now that I can look at my phone or my computer screen, it would be of little benefit.

My smartwatch comes with a step counter, which gives a little goal for every day. Plus it shows notifications from my phone. It makes it so much more comfortable that I don't have to pull my phone out for every single notification. Just having a look at my watch, and I know if it's important or not.

Smartwatch. They just have more functionality. Not sure what else there is to say!

Why choose?

I wear both.

A regular watch for telling the time and a smart watch (Fitbit sense) for notifications and general fitness tracking.

Why would you wear either? Have not worn watches since cellphones became a thing in the late 90s and smart watches are just a solution looking for a problem...
