Today's smartwatches are wearable computers capable of cellular and satellite connectivity and full application support without a tethered smartphone. With advanced features such as voice assistants, crash detection, call and text support, and long battery lives, modern smartwatches like the Apple Watch Ultra 3 or the Google Pixel Watch 4 are far more than just an accessory. Thanks to powerful sensors, they've become one of the most popular health and fitness trackers, too. Your smartphone may limit your smartwatch choice, but there are affordable smartwatches from Garmin, Withings, and others from Amazfit that offer more limited application support priced in the $250 to $500 range.
