No sleep tracking, no SpO2 sensor. They must be working on this, it would perfectly well into their health theme, and they bought Beddit. Another year.

#42Is Google still committed to Wear OS? They're so far behind.
I wish Apple would make their watch work with Android phones, similar to how they made iPods work with Windows computers way back when.
Right now the Apple Watch is the only thing keeping me from switching away from the iPhone.
If I could pair an Apple Watch with the Razer Phone 2, I would be so happy and never look back. And the problem will only get worse the next 5 years as folding screens come out for the very high end market.

Or make them independent of the phone. It looks like iOS 13 takes some steps towards that independence. I’d honestly like to have a watch instead of my phone.

I quite like the idea of a smart watch, but having to charge it every day is much less appealing.
I agree with this sentiment. But then I discovered the Fitbit has a 7 day battery life. That's a game changer.

#45Does it make an automatic emergency call just before it runs out of battery?

Unfortunately Fitbit decided to discontinue the display-less flex 2 and now I'm a bit confused on what to do next.

#47> it’s easy to see the time and other important information, without raising or tapping the display > the screen intelligently dims when a user’s wrist is down and returns to full brightness with a raise or a tap These two statements seem somewhat contradictory.
> it’s easy to see the time and other important information, without raising or tapping the display I love that they're touting this amazing feature which exists on any cheap $5 drug store watch.

Edit: with my Series 4, I wear my watch all day, and charge it when I’m showering/getting ready in the morning and when I eat dinner/relax in the evening—times when I don’t care to be hyper-connected to notifications, etc. anyway.
This allows me to wear the watch, essentially, 24 hours a day.

#49Garmin has always-on, reflective screen watches that can last for weeks on a single charge. I shouldn't need to babysit my watch.
