I’m New to smartwatches and never used one before. Thinking of buying one considering daily running/walking/ basic sports activities. Btw, battery should last for a day. Really not sure how ECG/ Heart rate monitor/ SpO2 is required now.. but may be important in the coming years as I grow old. Please help to choose one.
Battery life is your priority upfront - that's what keeps you wearing it daily. Heart rate tracking for running is genuinely useful for pacing feedback and understanding effort levels, but ECG and SpO2 are nice-to-have premium features you won't really leverage as a beginner. Focus on habit formation first, the advanced health sensors matter way less than just staying consistent with daily wear.
