Everyone? Well let me be a change then. I love my smart watch. It vibrating wakes me up easier than alarm. Step and sleep tracking is really useful to me. While a gimmick sure, I really enjoy being able to update and change my watch face on a whim. Even with always on display, constant heart rate tracking and step tracking, my watch easily lasts 48 hours and charges within an hour while I'm in the bathroom getting ready in the morning. I get it's not for everyone but far cheaper than a Rolex and way more functionality.

There's not a vendor out there I trust with an always on internet connected EKG on my wrist.

Cool, good for you.

I don’t really give a shit who knows whether my heartbeat is irregular.
