Missing a call because your phone was in another room is one of those tiny annoyances most of us face at least once every day. Fortunately, it's nothing a smart watch with calling feature can't fix. You can see who's calling, pick up from your wrist, and keep your hands free for whatever you were doing.
And if you're wondering how to choose the best smart watch with calling function, we've got you covered. We've picked three of our calling smart watches, from a metal-bodied everyday pick to a 20-day battery workhorse, so you can find the one that fits your wrist and your routine.
What to Look for in a Smart Watch with Bluetooth Calling
Before you buy a calling smart watch, double-check that it actually has these basics covered:
1. The Mic and Speaker Setup
You need to be able to talk directly into the watch without sounding like you are underwater to the person on the other end. Also, make sure it has an on-screen dial pad and lets you save your favourite contacts so you can make a quick call.
2. Screen Brightness and Size
Squinting at your wrist in the sun just to see who is calling gets old fast. You want a display big and bright enough to quickly read the caller ID and actually hit the answer button while you are moving around outside.
3. Battery Life
Taking phone calls from your wrist drains the battery way faster than just checking a random text message. Make sure the battery can handle daily calls without completely dying on you before dinner time.
4. Health Tracking and Extras
Heart rate, SpO2, and sleep tracking, plus features like sports modes, Emergency SOS or female wellness tracking, turn a calling watch into an all-day companion.
