    I recently gave up on my smart watch and bought a nice automatic watch instead. I spent double what I paid for my Fossil watch, but my new one looks better, and will almost certainly still work in 10 years.

        My smart watch actually annoyed me, and I went back to the Mi band.

        It’s the perfect balance. I get the time; heart, spo2, and sleep tracking; good battery life; notification viewing; phone call viewing…

        It’s like a debloated smart watch, and it’s perfect.

          Same. I first rolled back to simple Casio watch but then settled on fitbit band.

        I got a Garmin Fenix 7X at very deep discount and love it. It’s not as “smart” as my Galaxy Watch was, but I only charge at most twice a month and it has a built in flashlight
