Samsung Galaxy Watch6

For a non-iOS device, you can look at the Samsung Galaxy Watch6. Still one of the best Android wearables around, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 offers a wide range of features as well and is built to look and feel premium.

The only downside of these watches, however, is their battery life (which lasts about a day) so you may want to throw in a desk charger if you’re thinking of gifting.

For the tech-forward

Oura Ring Gen 3

Not a smartwatch. Not a fitness band. But definitely tech-forward. Though harder to find and probably maintain on Philippine shores, the Oura Ring Gen 3 is the pick for the tech-forward user who wants to stay ahead of the pack.

It offers a little less than your average smartwatch or fitness band but is a piece you’ll end up talking about with anyone. It is a little harder to cop since you can only purchase it through its official site for now but if you’re gifting, the extra effort is sure to make it special.

Final thoughts

Whether you’re on the lookout for a smartwatch/fitness band/wearable for yourself or to gift, you’re pretty much spoilt for choice. Premium, fashionable, or affordable, there’s a wearable for everyone.
