Top Smartwatches 2023

The Wyze Watch lets you control the company's smart home devices for just $20, but it mostly falls short on fitness tracking and doesn't do much else.

The TicWatch Pro 3 works well as a stylish Android smartwatch, but anyone who’s more than a casual athlete will be disappointed with its activity tracking.

We really like the look of the Withings Steel HR Sport as well as its 20-day battery life, but it's expensive for the features you get.

Made for fashion-conscious buyers rather than fitness fanatics, the Diesel On Full Guard combines an attractive design with a great screen, but is lumbered with poor stamina and is lacking key functionality, such as GPS, NFC and a heart rate monitor. For the price, you can do a lot better – you're essentially buying the brand here, rather than a leading Wear OS timepiece.

The Galaxy Gear is still too expensive and hard to track down - but at least it's getting updates.

The TicWatch GTH follows in the footsteps of the superb TicWatch Pro, we had high hopes for this budget smartwatch. Unfortunately, it disappoints on most fronts, with limited features and inaccurate fitness tracking. Its standout features (skin temperature sensing and pulse oximeter) are nice add-ons, but don't make up for this watch's flawed fundamentals. If money is tight, one of Amazfit's budget smartwatches would be a better buy.

The Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch running Wear OS from Google is designed for Android phones. But old software hampers the watch’s features and battery life.

It is noticeable that the software works, but does not give the user much freedom. Those who give the smartwatch a free hand will like the Sense 2. However, those who want to define a lot themselves should look for another model.

The Pixel Watch isn't a bad smartwatch, but it lacks the innovative potential that many had hoped for.
