Ever tried swiping your phone to pay for bak chor mee only to realise your hands are full of grocery bags from Sheng Siong? A good smartwatch fixes that—tap, beep, done—while keeping an eye on your steps, heart rate, even the next MRT arrival.

Network & eSIM
Singapore telcos still limit smartwatch eSIMs to flagship models (Apple & Samsung). All ten watches above rely on Bluetooth, so any phone on Singtel/StarHub/M1/TPG will do.

- Fitness junkie with daily GPS runs: Look at Amazfit Active 2 or Aolon R4 (20 h GPS).

- Mid-range (S$100 – 300): Redmi Watch 4, AUKEY SW-1S, Amazfit Active 2, TechLife P1
- Premium (> S$300): Huawei Watch FIT 3, Fitbit Inspire 3 (features trump price here)
