Genuine question.

I know they were the scrappy startup doing different cool things. But, what are the most major innovative things that they introduced, improved or just implemented that either revolutionized, improved or spurred change?

I am aware of the possibility of both fanboys and haters just duking it out below. But there’s always that one guy who has a fkn well-formatted paragraph of gold. I await that guy.

    I am not an Apple fan in the slightest but the Apple Watch is in like, it’s 10th generation? And I never see anyone wear any other type of smartwatch. And for good reason, pretty much everything else is garbage.

      Is only nice if you also have an iPhone otherwise its basically useless expensive garbage.

      Better look at Huawei, Zepp and Garmin if you want cheaper but equally good garbage. Fitbit is also a nice brand.

        Garmin makes great watches for fitness tracking. Not so much for general use.

        And those Chinesium watches require you to install spyware on your phone before they’ll do anything at all.

          I agree with both of your points.

          I guess let’s hope the PineTime, Pine64’s smartwatch, will become mainstream viable :D

      If you are into sports and outdoor activities and don’t want to charge your watch every second day Garmin smartwatches are a thing. I know more ppl. owning those than Apple Watches. Oh, and one Person I know using a ‚fossil‘ smart watch. 🤓
