This pretty well describes smart watches in my mind outside of those that need to keep track of certain vitals all of the time as well.
I used to feel the same, but they do fit a bit of a need for me. They work great as a silent alarm so you don’t wake up anyone else in your room, you don’t have to take your phone out to check time or notifications, and health and fitness tracking is better than what a phone can offer.
