Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch? (lemmy.world)

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.

Garmin "Smart" watch. It doesn't do apps but it does notificatios and is great for fitness... and only needs charging once a month. A watch that needs recharging daily is useless to me.

Me as well. I like to track my steps and exercise. Instinct 2 only needs charging I've a month. Absolutely love it.

Never understood the issue with daily charging. Unless you need to track your sleep cycle (which I've also never really understood, but to each their own), what's the problem with putting it on a charger each night before bed?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Because it's a hassle. For example I need to lug a charger with me everywhere I go, which is especially annoying on longer trips.
