Spring is a Marathon season. This year, more and more enthusiasts join in sometimes more than 20 races in a single weekend to anticipate Paris Olympic this year.
Recently, the phrase "Gen Z girls run marathon with assistance of smartwatch pace" rushed to be a hot search. It then immediately retorted by many runners, "Who runs a marathon without wearing a smartwatch?" In just a few years, smartwatches have evolved from a simple display gadget to an all-round life assistant. And consumer demand is also evolving towards diversification and personalization.

Meanwhile, the characteristics of a watch as a wearable device are even more restrictive, having to fit the wrist and emphasizing comfort, which looks leaving manufacturers with only the choice of whether the dial is square or round.

Smartwatches bring all the potential benefits compared to smartphones. While a smartwatch doesn't guarantee that you'll necessarily exercise more or play with your phone less, it will offer an option to make life better, which might just be enough to change our lives.
In the past few years, the discussion about smartwatches has been shifted from "should I buy a smartwatch" to "which smartwatch should I buy". So are you still on the fence about whether to buy a smartwatch or not? Here are my reasons for buying a smartwatch.
