Smartwatches

Postby sweerie_banana » 23 Nov 2023, 09:09

Hi, do you own one or have you ever used one?

I've always desired to have one, and hopefully, one day I will. These wearable devices provide quick access to notifications, fitness tracking, and other app functionalities without having to take out your smartphone.

How else do you use your smartwatch?

I have a Samsung smartwatch and really like it. You can customise it to show your own choice of watch face and it records and displays the number of steps I have made so far on the day. It's also convenient that it integrates with my mobile.

Hi Fergal, aren't you scared of data breaches or unauthorized access? Do you have to integrate it into your mobile?

I'm also very skeptical about the battery life.

The phone battery lasts for about two days on a full charge, it would last longer, but I prefer to leave the watch display always on, which is demanding on the battery. Yes the phone is integrated with my mobile via the Samsung Wear app.

I'm not overly concerned with data breaches, I wouldn't like anyone to hack into my phone but I don't store any data directly on the watch.
