I love mine, since I can control my media with it, see my texts at a glance, and ping my phone when it’s missing. Those features alone make it so that I’ll never want a dumb watch again.
Maybe it's because I'm not really a smart phone person... I got all notifications turned off, even on my lock screen. The only sound it makes is when someone calls me or texts me. Regarding media, I have an old TV, it's not smart, so I don't actually need it. Reagarding the phone missing, this rarely happens and I usually just tell my wife to call my phone.
It's personal preference. I'm a very smart tech person but like privacy and hate smart watches. But, they are handy and really life-changing for some.
