    Re: SmartWatch or Smartphone

    Well, the reasons for getting a smartwatch are very much different from those for getting a smartphone. I would personally go for the smartphone cause it's more practical, and I think it's a better investment. The thing is that there are so many affordable brands on the market that people are not aware of and are spending thousands of dollars on iPhones. The main reason for getting a smartphone was that I can carry it around and still work or entertain myself when I'm not home or don't have my laptop on me. Obviously, having a smartwatch is also super cool! I actually haven't got one yet, but I'm thinking of getting either an Apple Watch Series 5 or a Samsung Galaxy Watch. I'm struggling with my decision, so I used this website findyoursmartwatch.com to get some help choosing the proper cellular smartwatch. However, I'd like to know what you guys think!

    I’ve tried several, both Apple branded and 3rd party. So far, my favorite in terms of comfort and convenience has been a 3rd party knockoff of the nylon sport loop. Now I say knockoff because I bought it off Amazon for $10 instead of $50 from Apple, but the truth is that I can’t tell them apart aside from some of the color differences. Super comfortable, secure and super easy to get on and off.

    The Apple Silicone band is quite comfy, too, and it’s a great design, but in all honesty, they are a bit bland unless you go with some of the more exotic colors. I’ve not used the cheaper 3rd party options for this, but I’ve heard mixed reviews. Some seem to be just as good, but I’ve also heard that some don’t hold up.

    For dressier occasions, I bought a 3rd party high quality leather band originally and it looked / worked great until the leather got a little too worn in. I hate the way you sweat under a leather band (smells weird, too), and since the holes for fastening are fixed, it doesn’t always fight just right. That said, it did look nice.

    Then I found it…the new “hybrid” band consisting of a leather upper and silicone lower. I really like this band, as it looks great but has the comfort of the silicone. This is my new go-to when I am dressing it up a bit. The rest of the time, the nylon sport loop is my standard.

    Final thoughts…I don’t know that I’ll buy another Apple branded band. When the watch was still fairly new, the 3rd party bands weren’t as good, but that’s all different now. And because they are so much cheaper, you can often buy 4–5 like bands for the price you’ll pay at Apple…even for the stainless options. Check out Amazon and I think you’ll be pleased with the amount of choices you have as well as the price you pay in comparison.

    Think about it…would you rather have one $150 band that you (and realistically only you) know came from Apple, or would you rather than 7–12 bands to rotate through for different choices / occasions / outfits? Unless money is a non-issue for you, the choice is a no-brainer.

    Thousands of Apple Watch band alternatives are available, with a range of options to fit various demands and watch sizes. Well, my absolute favorite Apple Watch band is the one with a leather surface https://watchbandempire.com.au/colle...ands-for-apple . I like the leather apple watch band the most because of its luxurious touch. And this leather strap is more comfortable and looks chic at the same time.
