Thoughts on smart watches? (lemmy.ml)

Hello.

For a long time I have considered smart watches to be a gimmick but since they have become more accessible and common now for some time, I was wondering what the people who own and use them think of them?

So what has your experience been of them?

One thing I am curious about is how functional these (especially the Android ones) are without being connected to a phone via bluetooth since bluetooth drains battery?

I might get something like this. I already have a Casio analogue+digital watch and while it looks cool, things like stopwatch and timer are needlessly hard to use. Would like something like this so I don't have to take the phone to gym.
