Nixon The Mission Smartwatch Review

Nixon has come out with its most high-performing smartwatch yet, called The Mission. But how does it stand up to other sports watches?
Garmin Enduro

Garmin Enduro is an endurance athlete's dream. The sports watch pairs the high-end features you'd expect from Garmin with incredibly long battery life.
Diesel On Axial

Diesel On Axial review: A bold design for Wear OS

Diesel's Wear OS smartwatch stands out for its rugged, industrial, over-sized design that's sure to turn heads. It's not just unashamedly a Diesel design. It's also a feature-packed bit of tech with the latest Android smartwatch internals, and all the hardware you could ask for in such a device.

Sequent SuperCharger 2.1 Premium HR review: Infinite power, limited tech

The Sequent SuperCharger 2.1 Premium HR has an innovative power system that means you never, ever need to charge it up. Is that enough to make it worth buying?

Mobvoi TicWatch E3 review: The long lasting smartwatch

Equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 4100 processor, the $200 TicWatch E3 is a low-cost, speedy smartwatch, but the software situation is a problem.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 review: The (other) smartwatch you should buy

If you own an Android phone, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 should be at the top of your smartwatch shopping list. It's expensive, but worth it.

Amazfit GTR 2e review: All the good (and bad) from the GTR 2, for less money

Amazfit's GTR 2e fitness-focused smartwatch has all the good things about the existing GTR 2, but costs less. Should you look at this model instead?
skagen jorn hybrid hr review wrist up

Skagen Jorn Hybrid HR review: Not quite a winning combination of watch and tech

The Skagen Jorn Hybrid HR smartwatch goes beyond being a simple hybrid watch, but stops short of being a full touchscreen watch. Is it the perfect mix?
Galaxy Watch 4 Classic on the wrist.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic review: A first-rate smartwatch

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic introduces new software and a stylish, mature design. We think it has what it takes to succeed the Galaxy Watch 3.
Samsung Galaxy Fit Hands-on review

Samsung Galaxy Fit review

Samsung’s going toe-to-toe against Fitbit’s Inspire HR with its own $99 fitness tracker -- the Galaxy Fit. It also has a heart rate monitor, can automatically detect six workouts, shows you all the notifications from your phone, and has a battery that can last for days -- all in a small package.
skagen falster 3 x by kygo review face

Skagen Falster 3 X By Kygo Review: Scandinavian stealth

This special-edition Skagen Falster 3 smartwatch is a collaboration with Danish DJ Kygo, and is a cool, stealthy take on the already superb-looking Falster 3.
huawei watch gt review feat

Huawei Watch GT review

The Huawei Watch GT shows what Huawei can do when it ditches Google’s Wear OS and comes up with its own smartwatch operating system. The result is a stylish watch with amazing battery life, and some strong fitness tracking features, but with some surprising omissions that limited the device’s audience.
apple watch series 6 review pocket

Apple Watch Series 6 review: The best, most feature-rich smartwatch you can buy

The Apple Watch Series 6 is the most complete smartwatch you can buy, and with the latest software and processor it's a real powerhouse too. Here's our review.

Amazfit T-Rex Pro review: Far from extinct, but struggling to evolve

The Amazfit T-Rex Pro looks the same as the old T-Rex smartwatch, but has been treated to a few hardware upgrades. Is this enough to make it worth buying?

Fitbit Sense review: One of the best wearable sleep trackers

The Fitbit Sense is a small, compact wearable that tracks a lot of valuable health information -- all for an affordable price.

Huawei Watch 3 review: To achieve perfect Harmony, you’ll need to commit to it

The Huawei Watch 3 looks superb, and runs Huawei's latest HarmonyOS software, but getting to grips with it takes some effort. We know, because we've tested it.

Garmin Quatix 6 Review: So much more than a boat watch

The Garmin Quatix 6 has all the same functionality of the Fenix 6 Pro, with a different look that’s just as classy on a boat as it is on the trail or the gym.
emporio armani smartwatch 3 review ea front

Emporio Armani Smartwatch 3 Review: Not the style icon it should be

Wearing an Armani suit is a big statement, and such things are often worn by someone who wants to look classy and sophisticated. Surely wearing an Emporio Armani smartwatch will return the same effect? Sadly, the latest model -- unimaginatively named the Smartwatch 3 -- just doesn't have the style or performance you're looking for.
wyze watch review leader03

Wyze Watch Review: A $20 smartwatch with faulty connections

The Wyze Watch is a $20 smartwatch that punches above its weight class, but connectivity issues plague the watch, dragging the whole experience down.
lg watch w7 review feat

LG Watch W7 Review

The LG Watch W7 is a Wear OS smartwatch, but it differentiates itself from the pack by offering mechanical watch hands. We appreciate LG’s efforts to try something new, but the execution on the W7 is flawed. At $450, the price is also steep for the limited features available on the smartwatch.
amazfit gts review pocket

Amazfit GTS Review: Apple Watch looks, but not Apple software

It’s easy to dismiss the Amazfit GTS off as a cheap Apple Watch knockoff. It’s undeniably a clone due to the distinctive shape of the body, but to ignore it entirely because of this would be a mistake. However, the software still needs work, as the notifications are not always reliable.

Withings ScanWatch Review: In-depth health tracking, day and night

The long list of health-tracking abilities is only part of the Withings ScanWatch's appeal. All are easy to use, while the design is effortlessly classy.
Gear Fit Watch front angle

Samsung Gear Fit review

We review the Gear Fit, Samsung’s attempt to merge a fitness band with a smartwatch. Sadly, it doesn’t perform either function particularly well.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 review: A bite out of Apple

The Galaxy Watch Active 2 rounds out Samsung's watch lineup well, offering Android users the essential functionalities and price of an Apple Watch Sport. Adding ECG, LTE, and some new third-party app integrations, its biggest competitors are its own Galaxy Watch siblings and its predecessor.
tag heuer connected modular 41 review feat

Tag Heuer Connected Modular 41 review

Luxury smartwatches have been somewhat disappointing so far, with high prices, massive cases, and not a lot of reasons to buy one. Tag Heuer’s Connected Modular 41 overcomes previous problems to increase the desirability, but it’s still pricey compared to most others. We’ve been wearing one to see if it’s worth the extra.
The Garmin Venu 2 Plus is an excellent smartwatch.

Garmin Venu 2 Plus review: Premium in all the right ways

The Garmin Venu 2 Plus smartwatch is a premium wearable and Garmin's first watch that works with your voice assistant.
Garmin Vivomove Sport real hands.

Garmin Vivomove Sport review: The fashionable smartwatch with a hidden screen

You may not know it, but Garmin's Vivomove Sport has a hidden screen to keep true to its fashion watch looks, but its health tracking talent is more obvious.
The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro.

Amazfit GTR 3 Pro hands-on review: Dreamy hardware with early software woes

The Amazfit GTR 3 Pro is a stylish, lightweight smartwatch that costs just $230 and works with Android or iOS. We've tried it out ahead of its final release.

Casio G-Shock GSW-H1000 review: A G-Shock smartwatch for collectors

Casio's G-Shock GSW-H1000 smartwatch fulfills the 'let's make a G-Shock smartwatch' brief perfectly, but does this mean non-G-Shock fans will want one?
Coros Vertix

Coros Vertix review: For the mountaineer in all of us

Coros changed the fitness watch landscape by delivering battery life that is unbelievable in its Pace and Apex watches. We got our hands on the company's latest watch, the Vertix, to see if this adventure watch has the chops to compete with rivals Garmin and Suunto. Find out how it measures up here.
kronaby apex review 5

Kronaby Apex Review

The Kronaby Apex hybrid smartwatch mixes a high class watch design and premium materials with connected smartwatch features, creating a tempting package. We’ve been wearing it to see if it’s with the equally premium price tag.
Casio WSD f10

Casio Smart Outdoor Watch WSD-F10 review

Casio’s WSD-F10 includes unique features like an altimeter, barometer, and compass, along with Android Wear, but do the outdoor features justify the $500 price?
TomTom Spark 3

TomTom Spark 3 review

There’s no shortage of fitness trackers and sports watches by any means, but that does not prevent TomTom from having another shot at its popular Spark line with the Spark 3.
