Best praise vs top criticism for OnePlus Watch 2
“I actually got a OnePlus Watch 2 then upgraded to the Watch 3 when I heard about the battery. It's worth the upgrade on that spec alone. I have Always On Display (which is totally unnecessary but looks cool) and it still lasts like 3 days, sleep and all. If I turned off AOD I'm sure it would be like 5 days or something. I need to test that. I don't mind the rings and dings now, but when I first got it I turned everything off. Luckily there are settings to let your phone notifications go to the Watch or not, or also limit per app - so if Reddit is annoying, just turn notifications off on the watch and you are good to go. I always thought a smartwatch was stupid and unneeded, and perhaps it is, but I have found mine to make a few things much better... I enioy doing walks and workouts, and tracking my heart rate and such is nice. I thank the steps counter for making me move more. I set a goal and now it's like a game to get there. The best though is pressing a button and asking Gemini AI to set alarms, tell sunset time, andwer questions and such. Actually use that often.”
“Challenging as stylish is subjective Form watch face perspective all tend to have a classic watch face, and most of the main brands have a quick changing watch strap system allowing leather/metal bands. More important is what you do expect from watch - if just notifications not much point buying expensive watch? Withings hybrids have a small cut out so look very traditional - up to 28 days battery but not much more than know you have a notification. Garmin vivomove series would work well, up to 5 days. Very traditional look. Could also go with vivoactive 5 or 6, Venu 3, approach s70 if you golf a lot, or a Fenix variant especially a Marq (the Damascus version looks awesome but considering Fenix does same job for half price not worth it unless money to burn). Huawei GT and ultimate series offer great looking watches For wear os the OnePlus watch 2 or 3 would work for you and are 5 to 12 days depending on how you set it up (which is you run). Ticwatch atlas/enduro may be an option but due to LCD use to get +5 days maybe but, plus don't think the style is formal orientated. Amazfit active 2 or balance could be an option and if you don't want to spend much are great choices.”
