Smartwatch market trends: From budget models to professional fitness wearables

The wearable technology market continues to evolve with diverse options ranging from budget-friendly smartwatches to high-end professional fitness tools. In the sub-1000 PLN segment, models such as the Xiaomi Watch S4, Amazfit Balance 2 XT, Huawei Watch GT 6, and Garmin Forerunner 165 offer essential features like AMOLED displays, GPS, and health monitoring.

For professional athletes and outdoor enthusiasts, brands like Garmin lead with specialized hardware. The Garmin Fenix 7 Pro Solar features solar charging capabilities that can extend battery life up to 22 days, alongside military-grade construction and advanced training metrics. Similarly, lightweight sports watches like the Garmin Forerunner 170 and Coros Pace 4 provide significant battery advantages over standard smartwatches, with the Coros Pace 4 offering up to 19 days of battery life.

Other niche segments include smart rings, such as the Colmi R02, which provide health monitoring in a jewelry-like form factor, and specialized large-display smartwatches designed specifically for users with larger wrists.
