Buying tips

Start with your phone: Apple Watch works only with iPhone, while Galaxy Watch suits Android best. Then compare battery life, case size and the sensors you will really use. Health readings are a guide and do not replace medical measurements.

General advice for this type of product, not a test of a specific item.
