The best smartwatches for women
If you look back just two years ago for the best smartwatches for women, you'll find that smartwatch making has been somewhat disappointing when it comes to the "women" category.
Smartwatches initially started as a product that specifically caters to men, and had a beautiful collection style that focused more on functionality than appearance.
But over time it has grown into incredibly stylish and practical devices that, along with meeting the needs of both sexes, have become ideal for everyday use and storing all your vital information.
With unique and attractive designs, smart watches are not just high-tech clothing anymore, but now accessories that design and buy worthwhile for every modern woman.
From displaying messages to the appearance of caller ID notifications, today's smartwatches are being manufactured into complex pieces that can do much more than just tell the time.
And if you're wondering which product suits your needs the most, we've got a review of three of the best smartwatches you can choose from.
So, sit back and read.
Kate Spade New York Scallops
This watch is all about integrating the brand's first Wear operating system into Kate Spade's iconic scallop design. This provides the crucial feature of fitness tracking and details around the frame, making the device one of the most stylish smartwatches on the market.
When it comes to features, the streamlined New York Scallop design packs a punch. With a 1.19-inch AMOLED display and no punctured frame, it comes with an ambient light sensor and touchscreen along with the convenient Google Assistant app, which is voice-activated.
But what really impressed us with this model was the "Choose Your Shape" app. It is a unique feature that allows you to change the color of the dial to suit your mood and even your clothes. Playing it is also very simple; just tap on the icon around the spade, choose the settings for your clothes, and you're all set.
The screen resolution of the watch is 390 × 390, which makes the total size of the watch rather large relative to smaller wrists. It also doesn't have a "Google Play" feature, which can be a disappointment for many clients who prefer music during workout.
Pros:
1.19-inch AMOLED touchscreen with great ambient lighting.
Sleek and iconic design by Kate Spade.
The theme selection app allows you to customize the dial.
Google Assistant with voice activation features.
Cons:
The resolution of the connection and the screen can look too large on a smaller wrist.
It lacks the Google Play app.
Samsung Gear Sport Smart Watch
This watch is for all the swimmers out there. The most spectacular feature of the Samsung Gear Sport Smartwatch is its water resistance, which reaches almost 50 meters. This makes it the perfect companion for all forms of extreme water sports and deep-sea diving.
And if you have a lot of IoT-compatible devices or smart devices located around the house, then this device is sure to be your choice for the day. As in the Samsung Connect app, the Gear Sport can be used to remotely control smart devices such as lamps, door locks, and TVs once the frame rotates.
Push on the go is another feature that many smartwatches are not equipped with. Samsung has made the Gear Sport compatible with the Samsung Pay NFC app; this can allow you to pay from your wrist with just a few clicks.
But Gear Sport is disappointing when it comes to fitness tracking, and it's not as accurate as we had hoped. The tracking steps during operation are somewhat inconsistent, and the watch also shows no notification history for each application.
Pros:
Water resistance up to 50 meters makes it one of the smartest smartwatches for water sports.
Samsung Pay NFC compatibility allows one to make payments on the go.
The Samsung Connect app makes the watch able to control other smart devices.
Extremely high backup battery with wireless charging.
Cons:
Tracking steps while running is inaccurate.
It does not display the notification log for each application.
Apple Watch Series 4
No matter which forums you check out or the recent "smartwatch list" you go to, your Apple Watch will be at the top of every website.
With the latest in the lineup, the "Series 4", Apple has taken the base model of the Series 3 and gave it a much-needed overhaul. They made the Series 4 much larger and gave it two sizes 40mm and 44mm.
It installs with the latest version of 'watchOS5' and includes some amazing features such as water resistance, swimming tracking, and built-in GPS. Series 4 also comes with LTE capabilities to make calls when you're away from your phone.
But what really captures our imagination and distinguishes Series 4 premium class, is the built-in ECG. Although it is only available in the United States now, the health benefits it can provide in the future are almost limitless.
Apple Watch 4 is packed with the latest smartwatch technology and the most accurate activity tracking features. This is one of the reasons why it is the most expensive smartwatch on the market and beyond the reach of most ordinary buyers.
Another aspect that we think is completely inappropriate is that the Apple Watch is only compatible with other Apple devices.
Pros:
It is installed with the latest version of 'watchOS5'.
Built-in ECG function that can effectively measure systolic and diastolic heart function.
It has features such as water swimming tracker and built-in GPS.
LTE is compatible to make calls when you are away from the phone.
Cons:
Too expensive and unaffordable for ordinary buyers.
Only compatible with iPhones.
Final thoughts.
From tracking water sports to connectivity and even boasting a stunning design, the 2018 smartwatch market is packed with great devices that meet a variety of needs.
We hope that our list today will be able to help you make your decision while searching for the best smartwatches for women.
