I had an iwatch. The battery life was so short (at most 24 hours, less if using it to track a hike or ski day) that I finally got tired of using it. It has a slightly weird strap system. Mine kept coming off and eventually it fell off and cracked the screen slightly. I switched to a garmin watch and battery life is great (a week+, and at least a couple of longer hikes or ski days doesn't kill it when tracking exercise), it's also lasted much better and not broken when I dropped it - I have the sapphire something screen, a harder screen. The watches have access to the apps you opt into, so there is a security possibility of exposing information. The iwatch made me log in every time, such a pain, because it would ask me to log in multiple times a day. The garmin doesn't have a log in. The garmin forwards every message on my screen from my android to my watch and I can reply, while the apple required me to load an app on the phone or watch, adjust each one. I love the garmin, glad I moved on from the iwatch.
