7 best Android smartwatches

Smart watches are a wise investment. You can track your fitness goals and key health metrics like heart rate, respiration, and even stress levels.

Some of the best Android smartwatches even measure your body composition and monitor your blood pressure. Here are the best Android smartwatches you can buy right now.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 5

If you're looking for a great all-around device, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 with LTE connectivity is a smart investment. Aside from its sleek look, it's packed with tons of features and functions to help you better plan and organize your lifestyle. This 44 mm version is IP68 waterproof rated and can run for up to 50 hours on a single charge.

This watch works perfectly as an extension to your Galaxy smartphone and brings order to your hectic daily life. One minor annoyance is that there's no USB-C charger here (you get a micro-USB charger included instead), although the watch is compatible with wireless charging, so this might not be too inconvenient.

 

Garmin Fenix ​​7S Solar Multisport GPS Watch

The Garmin Fenix ​​7S Multisport GPS Watch is a solar-powered smartwatch suitable for outdoor activities. It features an always-on 1.2-inch display and an ultra-rugged design to keep up with your outdoor activities.

Fitbit Versa 4

 

The Fitbit Versa 4 Fitness smartwatch is great for anyone looking to work out or stay in shape. It has a 1.4-inch display, 6 days of battery life, and is water resistant up to 50 meters. The Fitbit Versa 4 also comes with over 40 different exercise modes built in.

Ticwatch Pro 5 Android Smartwatch

Another great option Android owners should consider is the Ticwatch Pro 5, the first device with the Snapdragon W5+ Gen 1 Wearable Platform, along with the latest version of Google's OS Wear. This fast-charging smartwatch features a 1.43-inch dual-layer circular display, 80 hours of battery life, and a 5ATM water resistance rating.

Its intuitive touchscreen controls make scrolling through tiles, zooming in and out of the map, and turning the TicWatch's rotating crown simple and satisfying. And haptic feedback also adds to the satisfaction of the experience here. This smartwatch is ideal for whole-body health monitoring and measurement.

Google Pixel Watch

 

Despite its slightly poor battery life, the Google Pixel Watch is still an impressive smartwatch that you shouldn't miss. This smartwatch looks great and has many features that make it stand out, being rated as one of the best Android compatible smartwatches out there.

Another useful feature on the Google Pixel is Emergency SOS, which can instantly alert a trusted contact if you feel unsafe outside. Great for fitness tracking, Google apps, and safety features, the Google Pixel Watch is an alternative worth considering. And if you're worried about that battery life, you can always turn off Google Assistant in the settings to extend it a little longer!

HUAWEI Watch GT 3

HUAWEI is doing great things in making affordable and accessible smartwatches. And the HUAWEI Watch GT3 smartwatch is a clear example of this. It has a 1.32-inch circular always-on display, compatible with both Android and iOS.

Naturally, to get the most out of this smartwatch, it should ideally be paired with a HUAWEI smartphone. In terms of style, the HUAWEI Watch GT 3 falls somewhere between the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 and the Google Pixel Watch, but is more affordable. The long battery life may convince you to opt for this alternative.

Fossil Gen 6 Smartwatch

Like a traditional wristwatch, this silver Fossil Gen 6 Smartwatch looks elegant and sophisticated, equipped with built-in Alexa, fitness tracking, sleep, heart rate, built-in GPS, music control, and more. Plus, it features Wear OS by Google and is compatible with the latest version of Android technology.

While compatible with both Android and iOS, Fossil Gen 6 is more suitable for Android users as it allows you to answer calls and text messages directly with your watch, which is a feature not available to iOS users. It is water resistant at 3 ATM and supports fast charging (reaches 80% in 30 minutes). Standard battery life is about 24 hours. It has NFC for payments and works well with apps like Spotify for music on the go.
