Looking for Recommendations on Smartwatches for Sleep, Fitness and Music… Any Suggestions?

Hello everyone, I’m considering buying my first smartwatch and need your help. I’ve done some research and narrowed it down to a few options. I’m hoping to find a smartwatch that looks like a traditional watch rather than a fitness tracker. It should have features like sleep tracking, fitness monitoring, health data, and ideally, the ability to play music through Spotify. I’m not interested in messaging, calls, or payment features. Here are the options I’m considering… Would love your thoughts or any other suggestions you might have!

  • Vivoactive Garmin
  • Fossil Gen
  • Garmin Venu
  • Samsung Galaxy Watch
  • Fitbit

Thanks a lot!

Unfortunately, most advanced smartwatches are quite thick. The few that resemble a traditional watch tend to be lower quality, often from cheaper brands.

That makes sense, AIS. I’ve been looking at the Venu 2, Venu 3, and Vivoactive 5. Which one do you think is the best?

Sorry, I prefer discreet watches, so I’ve been stuck with these cheaper options. I hope jaamgans sees this, as he knows a lot about the pros and cons of different Garmin watches…

(Also, comparing any two watches is tricky; I made a post about that here).

You can get it here for €39.90…
