Best Smartwatches and Wearables for Android

Do you remember the early days of Android smartwatches and wearables? A lot has changed since 2014. Motorola and LG are not the only companies to produce smartwatches and wearables for Android. Even watchmakers have gotten in on the act.

With so many different smartwatches and wearables available, it can be hard to figure out where to turn. Read on for a stupendous list of not to be missed “gotta have” Android smartwatches and wearables.

Best Smartwatches and Wearables for Android

Motorola Moto 360

This second generation smartwatch looks as good as it works – and boasts a better battery than the original. Equipped with the Snapdragon 400 processor, the customizable design makes this Android smartwatch particularly enticing. The added benefit of two different sizes helps it fit more wrists.

Moto 360 Sport

All the insides of the Motorola Moto 360, but with a tougher, more rugged design, this Android smartwatch was made for the active user. Look to the AnyLight Hybrid display to easily see the display on the darkest of nights. Track your exercise and enjoy a nice IP67 rating for dust and water resistance.

Fossil Q Founder

The Fossil features you already love – scratch-resistant face, stainless steel straps, and premium leather, the Android Wear™, Q Founder possesses an always on display so you can easily see your notifications (without being obvious) – are still there, but with this wearable you can track your steps, distance, and the number of calories you’ve burned.

Huawei Watch

Pricier than some, the Huawei watch has internals that resemble those of other (even lower-priced models) from other companies, but the appearance makes up for it. If you have been wanting a more “watchlike” smartwatch, this is it. The 1.4-inch AMOLED display with 400 x 400 resolution, 286ppi could seal the deal.

ASUS ZenWatch 2

Budget friendly with an eye-catching square face, the ASUS ZenWatch 2 is a great option for those with smaller wrists – they manufacture a 1.45-inch model in addition to the 1.63-inch model. Other features include 4GB of on-board storage, 512MB of RAM, and an IP67 dust and water resistance rating. You can receive the notifications you need with this one.
