Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy Watch are two of the biggest names in the smartwatch market. Both offer premium designs, health tracking, fitness features, notifications, calling, apps and several other smartwatch features. On paper, the difference between them may not look very big.
The bigger difference is how they fit into your smartphone ecosystem. If you have an iPhone, Apple Watch is the obvious choice. If you have an Android phone, Samsung Galaxy Watch is the option to consider. There is no real way to mix and match these two ecosystems. But if you are also planning to change your phone, the choice becomes more interesting.
Here are the differences that can actually affect your decision.
Your smartphone decides the smartwatch
This is the first thing you need to consider before comparing any other feature. Apple Watch is designed to work with the iPhone, while Samsung Galaxy Watch is built mainly for Android smartphones. This means your choice is largely decided by the phone you already own.
