How to choose a Smartwatch
The best Smartwatches can be split into two categories, which quickly helps to narrow down your options. If you are looking to keep track of your health and general fitness almost all smartwatches will do this. If this is all you need to do, look no further than the more affordable and simpler options, like the Garmin Forerunner 255, Wahoo Elemnt Rival or Coros Apex 2 Pro.
If you are taking on a big adventure, looking to analyse training stats, or would like features like mapping, consider the more expensive and complex products. Watches like the Garmin Forerunner 945, Forerunner 955 and Epix 2 are best suited to these tasks.
Smartwatch FAQs
Is Cyber Monday worth waiting for?
Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend is when we tend to see the lowest prices. With many retailers now running their sales for the majority of November, at least here in the UK, we do see good deals much earlier in the month. Some retailers have started to offer price matching for those who commit to early deals if the price goes down later in the sale. So, it's worth checking out your options.
Ahead of the big day, we spotted some unbelievable deals on smartwatches like the Garmin Forerunner 945 at Walmart & Amazon US.
Are smartwatches worth it?
It, of course, depends on who you are and what function you need from your smartwatch, but there are two camps and smartwatches serve them slightly differently.
The first is those looking to improve their overall fitness and use their smartwatch as a training tool. This is where your smartwatch doesn't need to be cycling-specific – metrics like heart rate, blood oxygen, sleep and recovery are common features of all smartwatches.
Ones with more cycling-specific features might include more detailed maps and the ability to connect to a heart rate monitor or power meter. It's worth noting they probably won't replace a cycling computer unless you're looking to do a triathlon.
For others, a less sports-focused or hybrid smartwatch like an Apple watch or Garmin Vivo could be a great tool to reduce screen time and distractions or the need to have your phone out in public. These smartwatches with the right plugins and apps can offer some, if not all the same fitness features but tend to be more stylish and less utilitarian. For cycling, the ability to pause or change your music, answer a call without the need to stop, and even pay for your mid-ride coffee and cake are all really handy.
What are the best smartwatches?
We have reviewed dozens of smartwatches in recent years here at Cycling Weekly. Slightly unsurprisingly, the world's biggest GPS, bicycle computer and smartwatch manufacturer, Garmin takes the best overall and best value smartwatches with the Epix 2 and Forerunner 945.
We also rate the Coros Apex 2 Pro very highly awarding that 4.5 out of 5 stars, along with the Wahoo Elemnt Rival, which is my smartwatch of choice. So, it is worth keeping an eye out for deals on these above.
Does Garmin do Cyber Monday?
Yes, that is the short answer. While Garmin directly might not always have deals, retailers and stockists of Garmin Smartwatches will almost certainly have offers.
We have seen numerous offers on Garmin Smartwatches already this year like this Garmin Forerunner 945 with $300 off at Walmart and Amazon.
Where can I buy a Smartwatch?
As smartwatches offer functions far greater than those needed for cycling, smartwatches are available to purchase at a much wider range of retailers – like Amazon, Walmart, Decathlon and even high street brands like Currys. This does tend to mean that pricing can be a little more competitive, it will likely mean the best deals aren't found with cycling retailers though. Where possible we will feature a mix of both electronics and tech retailers, alongside the best cycle retailers, assuming they can offer similar or match the deals of those outside the industry.
