[Electronics-Talk] smart watches

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the info.
Yikes, apple has the I-phone as a smart phone and the Ipad as its tablet so 
I was thinking it was the I Watch
for the smart watch. Okay its just the apple watch.


Do the other watches you mentioned have a screen reader in them?
Maybe the Galaxy watches have talk back.

What is the Galaxy watch like? Is it light weight? Can it be worn all day or 
does the battery run out?

Do other smart watches need to be paired with a smart phone? I know  the 
apple watch now can act alone or be paired with the IPhone.

Thanks for any ideas.

Ashley

Apple's watch is called the Apple Watch and not the iWatch, just in case you 
start searching for things on line. There are some Android watches, such as 
a Galaxy watch from Samsung, Pixel watch from Google and some others. These 
work especially well with an Android smart phone but will also work with 
iPhones too. I had a ticwatch back when I had a Galaxy S7, but I'm sure 
things have changed a lot in the last few years.

Hi all,

Is the IWatch made by Apple the only accessible smart watch? If not, what 
other options are there?

I know very little about smart watches.

If you have one, what are some main things it does? I heard you can text 
message and also load music on it. I assume the apple watch has itunes and 
the option to stream apple music as well as stream other radio from the 
internet.

Can smart watches act as a timer or stop watch? Do they have a calendar 
feature?
To listen to it may annoy people in public if you have it talking a lot. Can 
the watch connect to headphones?

Also, do smart watches have Alexa or the Google assistant built into them or 
give you the option for that to be installed?

Thanks.

Ashley
