thinking to get an apple watch SE but the battery like less than a day.
the ultra version damn big for my small hand.

i am using a cheap Casio analog watch. buy shopee je at rm20.

few weeks ago i do some research abt the huawei and xiomi cheap 1 range about 150-250.
seems like ppl got side effect wearing it.

so, any recommendations? maybe wont got beyond too much. since paying a lot for smartwatches, still stuck in traffic and not on time.

or just stay with a cheap analog watch?







i dont bother much abt the wristwatch but my boss, friends and clients like. why this guy is so old fashion? hahaha

thanks btw.

Apple watch can definitely last you till end of the day. No need to worry about that.

Personally I charge mine on alternate days.

huh? you think it's powered by nuclear reactor?
what side effect?
itchiness is due to allergic reaction of skin against material, that one is dependent on individual trait.

don't be pressured to join a fashion statement.
you are the one who will be spending, not them.
get one if you need a feature or can benefit from a lifestyle change that comes with it (i.e. ECG, handwash timer, workout statistics, reminder and calendaring, notification, ...).
You are not in an hard-labour industry that can destroy or scratch watches for no reason, right? then just grow up and ditch what you claim a RM20 (childish?) Casio watch, trade up to one that looks better suited for a working adult. an RM100+ Casio is suitable trade up, no need to get to multiple hundreds.

all you people complaining charging it everyday

what’s so hard to charge it before you go to sleep

every smartwatch battery will deteriorate over time and you still need to end up charging it every day

Depends on your phone. If iPhone then Apple Watch no Braine cos of the seamless integration . If it’s an android then you need to pening kepala to choose

I’m eyeing the amazfit gtr 4 too.

I heard my frens said he owned 2 amazfit, but both facing same problem after 4 years.

1. No more update
2. Lose contact to phone apps (cant connect at alll)

But we both agree that 4 years is fine. Also, after 4 years the watch battery still can run 1 week~

So if u plan to wear 10 years then cannot la boss.

using GTR 4 - fantastic battery life. If you're not hung up on wear OS - amazfit's zepp OS is pretty decent - very very smooth - zero lag, been using it for 2-3 weeks now - battery life can tahan 4-5 days easily with always on, heavy use on heart rate monitoring every minute...if non-heavy use i think 2 weeks can tahan without AOD.

Or buy GTR 3 pro - not much difference between the two except GTR 4 GPS is better and latest ZEPP OS 2. Price diff about RM 100.

It's a nice looking GShock, with some basic functions.
But dont buy this if u want a smart watch. The UI very cacat. Need to click multiple button just to read the notifications. Cannot reply msg, answer call, control media, etc.

I bought Galaxy Watch 5 Pro for RM1275 recently off Shopee. No complaints. Decent battery life, over 3 days - but worse if I install the fancy watch faces. Spotify offline available, so I can run with bluetooth ear buds for music without carrying my phone.
