The best smartwatch 2025: Top wearables for notifications, fitness tracking and health

We've tried out some really cool smartwatches for everyone, no matter what kind of phone you have or how much money you want to spend.

The best smartwatch for iPhone users

Apple Watch Series 10

The Apple Watch 10 is the coolest Apple Watch so far! It might not be super different from the Apple Watch Series 9, but there are some nice improvements. The watch is a bit thinner, like if you made a sandwich with less bread, and the screen is bigger, like having a bigger picture to see!

The best budget smartwatch for Android

SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch 7

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is a really great watch for people who use Android phones. It has smart features that help you understand your health, it’s light and comfy to wear, and it can track things like your heart rate. Plus, it has lots of cool apps you can use!

The best Android smartwatch overall

Google Pixel Watch 3

The Google Pixel Watch 3 comes in two sizes: a smaller one that is 41mm and a bigger one that is 45mm. If you want the best experience, you should choose the bigger one because it’s more comfortable to wear and looks nice. It’s not as slim or as light as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, but the bigger Pixel Watch 3 lasts almost twice as long on a single charge compared to the Samsung watch.

The best smartwatch value for iPhone users

Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen)

The Apple Watch SE is like a mix of two different watches. It uses an older style but has some of the smart technology from the newer Series 8 watch. While it doesn’t have all the same features as the Series 8, it’s really good at tracking your exercise and keeping you safe. It also has a special version that lets you use it without your phone, which is great for families who want to set it up for kids.

The best smartwatch from Fitbit

Fitbit Sense 2

The Fitbit Sense 2 is a newer version of the original Fitbit Sense. It looks better, has a friendlier screen, and is better at checking how you feel. It can do more to help you stay healthy and is really good at tracking your exercise, even when compared to other popular smartwatches.

The best fitness-tracking smartwatch

The Garmin Venu 3 is a really cool watch that helps you stay active and looks nice too! It tracks your workouts and knows where you are. Plus, it can show you messages and let you talk to it right from your wrist!

The best smartwatch for safety and sports

Apple Watch Ultra 2

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is a great watch for people who really love sports or want to stay safe. I think the safety features are really important. It has a special button called the Action Button that helps during workouts and lets you quickly get to safety tools, like calling for help or using a loud siren. This makes it different from the Apple Watch Series 9.

The best smartwatch for runners

Garmin Forerunner 265

This small and easy-to-wear watch is perfect for running! It can track how far you run, control your music, and lets you make your own workout plans, all for the same price as an Apple Watch. It also helps you see how well you’re training and how much time you need to rest afterward.

The best smartwatch for battery life

SAMSUNG Galaxy Watch Ultra

The Galaxy Watch Ultra is a really cool smartwatch from Samsung that’s great for sports and outdoor fun. It has a special sensor that helps it keep track of your sleep and exercise, just like the Galaxy Watch 7. The watch can even notice if something is wrong with your health, like if you have trouble sleeping or if your heart is beating differently. Plus, it gives you helpful advice to stay healthy and feel good!

The best smartwatch for step counting

Fitbit Versa 4 

The Fitbit Versa 4 is a really good watch for counting how many steps you take. I found out that it helps remind you to move and lets you know when you’ve reached your step goal. However, it doesn’t do a great job at checking your heart rate. So, if you just want to keep track of your steps, this watch is a good pick!
