Smartwatch vs smartphone? Before you go to the nearest shop, you should first ask yourself these questions: Why buy a smartwatch? Is a smartphone not good enough? The answers may give you the confidence and satisfaction you need to wear a smartwatch.
It makes you less 'dependent' on your smartphone.
You always use your smartphone to see what's happening in your Facebook and other social media accounts. You are also dependent on it to check your mail inbox. Some people close to you call you smartphone-addict. With a smartwatch strapped to your wrist, you are somehow reducing your 'addiction' to your smartphone. Regardless if you are using Samsung Gears, Sony Smartwatches, or Peebles, you can easily do all these tasks to a smartwatch.
It takes little effort to use smartwatch - and it saves you time.
Smartwatch vs smartphone: Your smartwatch 'chirps' (or vibrates). You just look at it and you are already aware if someone has left a message in one of your social media accounts or in your email. With smartphone, you have to make an effort to pick up your phone, unlock it then go to the application. This may take only less than a minute but count the number of times you undergo this process each day and you will be surprised to find out that an hour of your day has been wasted.
You can focus more using a smartwatch.
Another reason you should buy a smartwatch is to achieve more focus or avoid distractions. Again, your smartwatch vibrates, telling you something. Is it urgent? Because the message alert is already displayed on the screen, you can easily take a glance, taking only three to five seconds of your time. From that moment, you can tell if it is something that you have to respond to quickly or something that you can come back to later. If it is something that can wait, you just have to go back to what you are doing. Unlike smartphone where you can see temptations (read: apps) that can let you lose your focus.
Smartwatch vs smartphone: Another reason you should buy smartwatch is that it also has other applications that you may need. There's Runtastic PRO, My Tracks, Walkmate, and Vibe that work for Sony SmartWatch.
