JAKARTA - Many smartwatches today bring various smart features into it. This series of features is adjusted to the different budget and needs of each user.
Most of the leading smartwatch makers like Apple and Samsung provide it with premium quality such as accurate fitness tracking.
However, Apple and Samsung smartwatches cannot be used as benchmarks for buying smartwatches. Before you decide to buy a smartwatch, pay attention to the following aspects.
Display or Display
The screen is an important factor in the smartwatch purchase decision. Apple and Samsung's smartwatch uses the OLED screen for its products.
But if you want something more affordable like RealMe, Oppo, and Xiaomi you'll see them using an LCD screen. In many middle class smartwatches, you can also get better AMOLED screens than LCD screens.
The LCD screen will probably make battery life wasteful when compared to OLED or AMOLED ones that are more power efficient.
OS and Application Selection
The purchase of a time smartwatch is expected to connect directly with your phone. So, pay attention to the selection of OS on smartwatches.
If your phone is running with the iOS system, it will use any type of Apple Watch to be compatible on your phone.
But if you are an Android user, Apple's smartwatch will certainly not be compatible on your device. So select a smartwatch that suits your smartphone.
Then select a smartwatch that has more complete applications such as Apple Watch which supports many popular applications or even Google with Wear OS.
Therefore, you must buy a watch that offers support for the many applications you use every day.
Feasibility Tracking
Activity tracking is the biggest reason why people turn to smartwatches. This ability will show the number of steps, calories, and suitable exercises using only the watch device.
With a smaller and more practical device, you even have a heart rate monitor as well. So, before buying it, make sure the existing fitness tracking features match your needs.
Battery
Smartwatch battery life remains one of the main features that most users must pay attention to. You can expect a 2-day battery life from smartwatches like Apple and even Wear OS devices.
The watch that uses the Snapdragon processor uses 3100 with support for features to streamline battery life, which allows you to earn up to five days on a single charge.
Other devices with less features can last 5 to 7 days but that includes most of the fitness trackers available on the market.
Communication
Smartwatch also makes it easier for you to keep your latest notifications such as text messages and unanswered calls. Just in one look, you can check who is calling or sending you an SMS without picking up your phone.
Several watches allow you to send a short reply directly if there is a text notification. Other premium smartwatches like Apple and Samsung even give you the option to make calls to anyone or receive calls even with your phone off.
NFC
The NFC feature has recently become popular, not only on smartphones, but also on smartwatches. An NFC feature that allows you to pay for goods without carrying a wallet.
How it works is you just need to store your credit card or debit information and you can bring your smartwatch closer to the NFC readers to pay for it.
It should be noted that each smartwatch has a different payment method. Apple with Apple payments, Wears OS with Google payments, so make sure your needs are correct.
Price
The last thing to pay attention to is price. Make sure your expenses match what you get on your smartwatch.
