It's cool that this works, but like, why? Just get one of the million Android watch options, any difference in hardware is negligible and the user experience is out-of-the-box

Sounded like nothing Android had the certified accuracy or features (fall detection) of the Apple Watch.i don’t follow Android smartwatches so I don’t know.
My Samsung watch has all the things like fall detection and heart alerts. If I remember correctly (highly debateable at best) when I was researching to get it, there is effectively no difference between any of the watches hardware, just the software and ecosystem. They may even use some of the same exact hardware from the same factory, but idk about that.
But this way I can give Apple my money and Google my data in one simple package!
