Hijacking the thread: is there any Smart Watch out there that I can use without any smart phone and that I can put music in it? Basically, I would like to use it as an mp3 player (so, ideally I would just need to plugin it to my laptop to transfer music).
- ashrodan 4y agoMy Garmin forerunner music can load up Spotify music and connect to a Bluetooth headset. Will need a phone to setup and update
- runjake 4y agoAs ashrodan mentioned: the Garmin Forerunners do this. What they didn't mention is that you can also attach it to a Mac or PC via USB and copy over your own music to it. IIRC (but it's been a while) there are also tools to do this on Linux in the repos. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/blog/general/which-garmin-smartwatches-have-music-storage/ https://www.garmin.com/en-US/blog/general/which-garmin-smart... And... Page 47 of https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/forerunner245/EN-US/Forerunner_245_OM_EN-US.pdf https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/forerunner245/EN-US/... as an example.
- hajmo97 4y agoI don´t think that there is any Smart Watch out there that can be used without a phone or "computer" because every Smart Watch like e.g. Garmin communicates and syncs the data via your phone or any other device over bluetooth. It can be also done via USB, but if you for example run every day the built in memory of Smart Watch will be full very fast and you have to hook it up to a internet connected device to sync it and to free the internal storage (you have to install a software on the internet connected device). Beside the running data, it also monitores you HR,sleep,steps,...24/7, so there is allot of data that fills up the internal storage.
