A smarter smartwatch
There are lots of options out there for someone on the hunt for an inexpensive smartwatch that looks suspiciously similar to the one you can get from that little computer company in Cupertino.
This isn’t that. The Virmee VT3 isn’t trying to be anything it’s not.
Instead, it’s trying to be a basic smartwatch that does 95 percent of what people expect from even the highest end options—at a fraction of the cost. (A small fraction at that.)
Anyone who has ever used a shiny new smartwatch will tell you that even though you spend the first week playing with all the deep and complicated functionality it has to offer, once you’re past the honeymoon period, it’s really about maybe two things: activity tracking and notifications.
That’s it.
That’s what smartwatches are good for.
That’s what $20 smartwatches are good for and that’s what $300 smartwatches are good for.
For everything else, you have a phone. Your phone is probably in your pocket right now (if not in your hand) and will do pretty much anything a smartwatch can do, only much more easily. Tiny little wrist screens are good for telling the time and maybe checking a message quickly.
Everything else—phone.
Oh and it turns out that when your watch is only trying to do a few basic things, you get to have a battery life measured in days, not hours. It’s one of the secret upsides of this kind of watch that nobody really talks about.
So get your alerts on your wrist and benefit from everything that really robust activity tracking has to offer. That’s today’s deal.
Not bad for twenty bucks.
And if your active, fitness-oriented lifestyle is leaving your arms a little out of whack? We actually have a bonus deal for that problem exactly.
