– Battery life. This is a huge difference. Give preference to equipment with greater autonomy.
– Applications and ecosystem. It is ideal for the watch to be compatible with more than one brand, but this is not the case. They usually work better with their respective mobile phone brands. Of course, if possible, check if it has options for several apps and its own app store.
– Independent. I hope it connects itself to Wi-Fi internet and even has an eSim function so it is phone independent for communication. Additionally, NFC is ideal for contactless payments.
– Processor and storage. It is required for ‘intelligence’ capabilities and having various applications installed.
