Looking for the best smart
watche? Look no further. VolgoPoint brings a comprehensive list of the
best smartwatches to help you in your search. This guide is a compilation of
our previous round-up review articles of the best smartwatches by function,
feature and price.
The market for smartwatches has
grown exponentially over the past few years. This is good news for consumers
like you because you have more choices. The downside is that it can be tricky
to pick a smartwatch with all the products that have flooded the market. And
because smartwatches practically
have the same features, it can be very hard for a neophyte buyer to pick just
one.
To make things easier for you, we have sorted our list into
various categories — the best smartwatches
for men and women, as well as those that are powered by Google’s Wear OS
operating system. Even though our list includes most of the best Samsung Smartwatches From VolgoPoint,
there are also some that work with another system.
1. Samsung Gear S3
Frontier
The Samsung Gear S3 Frontier could be the best smartwatch for men with its beautiful and durable design. The S3
Frontier is packed in features. It has sensors such as a barometer, altimeter,
GPS, and heart-rate monitor. You can also use the Gear Fit app and Pear app to
keep track of your activities.
The S3 Frontier is built for
men with its large face measuring about 1.8 x 1.9 inches. It should look good
on men with large wrists. It weighs 2.2 ounces sans the band. In comparison,
the Apple Watch Series 2 weighs just .99 ounce.

drops. You can use it in up to 5 feet of water for around 30 minutes.

bright enough even during the day. It has a resolution of 360 x 360 pixels and
