Smart watch ideas for ds. Hold on for Black Friday?

[Muchtoomuchtodo]

He’s 14 and has asked for an Apple Watch for Christmas.

He’s after the watch function, HR tracker and step counter. I’m hoping his running will take off a bit as the nights get longer so the pace tracker function will be useful.

BUT I don’t want to spend a fortune!

He’s got an apple phone so an Apple Watch will link easily but are there any others that I ought to consider? I don’t think that the Huawei are compatible with Apple.

I’ve never really bought him a heigh value present like this before so would it be worth me hanging on for Black Friday deals?

We’ve got DS an Apple Watch for Christmas but it’s the 3 rather than the 4 that we have (I think there’s a 5 out too maybe?).

Have a look at Fitbit versa/versa lite.
Looks very similar to Apple Watch and it's compatible with iOS.

Thanks both.

I’ll take a closer look at what you’ve mentioned,.

I have bought one for DH which was about £30 from TK Maxx. I’m absolutely not expecting it to be anywhere as good as the Apple Watch, but I think the principle is the same and for £30 I don’t mind if it’s not used loads but if it is then perhaps he will consider investing in a proper one.
