I&#8217;ve been using versions of the Apple Watch since the original model came out in 2015, with breaks in between. I purchased the first version out of curiosity (and for the obvious work reasons) when I was in my early thirties. Less than a decade later, the Apple Watch became a must-buy device for me, as I started prioritizing living a healthier life. An Android smartwatch could help me achieve the same goals, and some of the models available come with a few advanced features that the Apple Watch lacks.<\/p>\n<p>However, I have several reasons why I chose the Apple Watch over competing models, and will likely continue to buy Apple wearables for the foreseeable future. I have the Apple Watch on my wrist for almost the entire day, as I want the wearable to collect as much health data as possible that may one day help me identify health issues early and provide a richer health history to healthcare providers. The Apple Watch is also integral to my exercise routines, helping me keep track of workouts, including marathon training.<\/p>\n<p>But the Apple Watch is an iPhone accessory. To take advantage of all the features I want from the wearable, I need an iPhone. Or better said, I&#8217;m a longtime iPhone user, so the Apple Watch is a natural (and sometimes only) choice. In addition, there are several perks to buying an Apple Watch that I value.<\/p>\n<p>         &#8230;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgr.com\/2185561\/reasons-smartwatch-users-prefer-apple-android\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 Reasons I Chose The Apple Watch Over Android Smartwatches https:\/\/www.bgr.com\/2185561\/reasons-smartwatch-users-prefer-apple-android\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-06 22:31:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":266241,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.bgr.com\/img\/gallery\/5-reasons-i-chose-the-apple-watch-over-android-smartwatches\/l-intro-1780403102.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-266240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-android"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266240"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=266240"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266240\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":266242,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266240\/revisions\/266242"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/266241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=266240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=266240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=266240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
