A smart watch can be both an additional device that allows you to connect to a smartphone via WiFi or Bluetooth, and an independent device that can be used independently without a smartphone. Many smart watches have a huge number of functions that are worth learning about more, so we suggest you learn more about them when you decide to buy a smart watch for yourself or as a gift to your loved ones.
The main characteristics of smart watches
1. Physical form and health
Now they are considered integral functions of smart watches. In addition, most of them are also equipped with sleep, blood pressure and ECG sensors, which, of course, are not as accurate as medical devices, but they allow monitoring the general trend of changes in health indicators. All measurements are carried out with the help of special sensors equipped with smart devices
2. Phone location
Especially when you are in a hurry, it is very unpleasant if you cannot find where you left your smartphone. Of course, if you can just ask a family member to call you to help you find the phone, but what if you live alone? Smart watches with the "find my phone" function will be especially useful in this situation. With this feature, the smartwatch activates a ringtone on your smartphone to help you find your ego.
3. Music player
Presumably, many still remember that such a thing as a portable player existed. As technology developed, music players began to be built into smartphones, and now they can also be found in smart watches. The most interesting thing is that you can listen to music not only when the smart watch is connected to your phone. If this function is important to you, make sure that your smartwatch has enough memory to create a large collection of songs that you can listen to in wireless headphones while running, walking or on public transport.
4. Receiving calls
When connected to a smartphone, most smart watches allow you to receive incoming calls, allowing you to make a call either through a wireless headset or through the built-in microphone and speaker of the smart watch.
The good news is that more and more smartwatches are equipped with e-SIM cards, which allows you to receive and make calls directly from the smartwatch, without the need to connect to a phone. This feature allows you to leave your phone at home when you want to go outside, for example, to go for a run, or if you accidentally leave your phone at home, you can still stay connected.
5. Receipt of notification
Smart watches can become one of the most convenient gadgets precisely because they are always at hand. Instead of regularly checking your smartphone, you can receive notifications, messages and emails directly on your smartwatch. Most smart watches allow you not only to view the notification, but also to respond to it using simple phrases or typing text using a simple keyboard directly on the device.
A smart watch will also be a great alarm clock for you, as it can wake you up not only with sound, but also with vibration. This is especially convenient if you and your partner have different schedules, but you want to wake up without disturbing others.
6. Fall sensor and call for help
It may seem that a smart watch is a device more suitable for young people, but for elderly people living alone, such a device can also be very useful. Smart watches are equipped with special sensors that can detect falls. After that, the watch gives a signal, and if the user does not react after a certain time, the watch automatically calls an ambulance.
