 Ni> When smart watches came out, I was skeptical of them, mainly due to their

I bought a Samsung Gear S3 frontier back in 2019. I like it for all the reasons you listed above. It is starting to show its age though, and the battery is not lasting as long as it used to between charges; I used to get a few days out of it, and now I need to charge it in the middle of the day, which gets annoying. I'll probably be shopping around for something new soon.
