Top 5 best Smartwatches you can buy in 2016

The Gear S2 by Samsung features a gorgeous Super AMOLED display and a rotating bezel for navigating the user interface. Well-designed and superbly crafted, the device is one of the best smartwatches available today. There are plenty of options to choose from, too — from a sporty Gear S2 all the way to a Gear S2 Classic in platinum or rose gold.

The battery life is better than most rivals; among several Android Wear watches Samsung’s smartwatch beats these hands down. The lack of apps is a niggle, but we don’t think it impacts the overall experience enough to recommend rivals over this device.

With a classic round design, built-in microphone, and a slew of loved Pebble features, you’ll always be in the know without compromising style or fit. Did we mention it’s the lightest and thinnest smartwatch, ever?! Good. It’s pretty gorgeous, too.

The Pebble Time Round features classic looks, an ultra-thin body, and all the functionality that make the brand so popular. Like the regular Pebble Time, the Round sports a low-resolution screen that helps it deliver good battery life.
