The world have recently moved beyond just mechanical watch as each technology firm tries to make a name for itself in the smartwatch race. Smartwatch as become an essential commodity today as we see them in every nook and cranny, each firm competing against each other.
The arrival of smartwatch was marketed as the arrival of personal fitness tracker, which enmass tons of different types of watches tuned for personal hygiene and medical benefits. The most popular and most demanding of them all are Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch.
These watches are consciously made not only to be a watch but to be many things that can help with one's fitness needs and experience. They are medical classified by professionals, although those claims are often disputed. What are the essential benefits of smartwatches? Almost all of them claimed to be perfectly capable of measuring the wearers heart rate.
Most modern smartwatch have heart rate monitoring sensor that measures the heart rate of the wearer. This provide tangible information about the wellness of the heart when idle as well as during an exercise. Other features they claim to have is pedometer for measuring steps, which kind of give the wearer a sense of exercising his body by taking a walk.
Sitting too long or being idle are not tolerated by most smartwatches as they put on a warning notification to alert the wearer the need to do an exercise. Smartwatch are health friendly, at least to those who are informed. But you must be aware that there have been lots of complaints about the misinformation and misinterpretation of data they gathered.
Moreover, not all their readings are correct and a lot of them have been proved to be wrong. Different brands make different smartwatches these days, and not all of them gets the data that is displayed on the screen (such as the heart rate and calories) right. They feed the wearer with wrong information, although the firms most of the time claimed their data to be right.
Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch still remain the most trusted among the lot. So, incase you are willing to shed some money to buy one, look for a trusted brand and for a trusted product.
