Last Wednesday morning, I woke up and did what I normally do when I open my eyes. I grabbed my phone and checked my Oura app to see how I slept. This morning, however, Oura's home page looked a bit different. Unlike the sleep and readiness scores I usually see on the home page, a new message appeared on top. While no biomarker deviated strongly from my baseline, Oura's Symptom Radar feature warned me that my biometrics indicated "major signs of strain." It encouraged me to take it easy -- a tall task given that I was headed into the office for the workday.

Moto Watch was launched in India on Friday, along with the tech firm's Motorola Signature, at an event in Mumbai. The new smartwatch will be available for purchase in India via the company's online store. The Moto Watch has been launched in India with various health and fitness tracking functionalities, like blood-oxygen monitoring, heart rate tracking, and "advanced" sleep and recovery monitoring. It is equipped with a round dial, which houses a 1.4-inch OLED display.

At CES 2026, the tech giant is rumored to unveil a Brain Health feature, developed to detect early signs of dementia, according to rumors. Details are sparse, but Sammobile reported that the feature will analyze various metrics to detect early signs of dementia. These include gait patterns, changes in a user's voice, and sleep status. Whether this will be through Samsung's smartphones, smartwatches, or smart rings is still unknown.

So how does the Smart Band 9 differ from a smartwatch? Well, the lines are a little blurred. Basically, it can do all the basic things any smartwatch can do, but without the quality-of-life features found on higher-end smartwatches and without deeper, more personalized data insights. Xiaomi does have a line of smartwatches, after all, and naturally, there is some delineation between the feature sets.

Budget smartwatches have come a long way in recent years, from mere tech gadgets to essential daily wearables. They now offer smarter features, better health tracking, and seamless connectivity. Indian brand Just Corseca has recently launched its latest budget-friendly offering, the Skywatch Pro, in the country, which includes all basic smartwatch functions, along with Bluetooth calling, heart rate monitoring, step tracking, and more. After using the Just Corseca Skywatch Pro for nearly a month, here's my take on this entry-level smartwatch.

Realme Watch 5 is all set to launch in India on December 4. Ahead of the debut, the company has confirmed the smartwatch's design, colour options and main features. Notably, the model is already available in select global markets. The upcoming wearable is positioned as a major upgrade over the preceding Watch 3 Pro, featuring a larger AMOLED display, expanded health tracking tools and longer battery life.

The latest Galaxy Watch lineup includes both the and the Watch 8 Classic with a rotating bezel, are available to buy now, and they're packed with all the standard health tracking metrics, and some unique ones of its own. I've been testing Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8. I've run, slept, and socialized with it, and I'm confident it's one of the top Android smartwatches you can buy right now, whether you're training for a marathon or just looking for a capable AI-powered smartwatch.

Lee is a former Bose engineer who led the engineering of its famed sleepbuds, and he, in his own words, "knows how to put tiny things in people's ears for a long time," he told me in an exclusive interview. After Lee's father broke several ribs when he fainted due to a lack of blood flow, he wondered how to create a device that measured that in the ear.

The is an interesting hybrid device because it looks like a regular watch (complete with analog hands), but it has features you would normally see on a smartwatch, like an OLED screen and health tracking features. How often do you charge your smartwatch? Once or twice every day? Too often? Doing so regularly often makes me wonder exactly how much value I'm getting out of those occasional notifications and alerts, and it's a big reason why I still have an affection for hybrid smartwatches.

Samsung offers FE (fan edition) smartphones and tablets, but this year's Galaxy Watch FE is the first smartwatch with the moniker. The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE LTE is a $250 smartwatch you can use on the go without having a phone connected via Bluetooth. The entry-level smartwatch is priced just right, given that it offers most of the functions in the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra. The 40mm Watch 7 with LTE is priced at $350, meaning you can pick up the FE for $100 less without compromising too much.

Sound quality, active noise cancellation, and integration are the watchwords of the AirPods Pro range; where the second generation was good, the third iteration gets better. If you make heavy use of your AirPods and are beginning to experience degraded battery life, these may be a good upgrade. However, many of the new features Apple is introducing alongside these earbuds are also available to older Pro models with iOS 26.
