Bluetooth bracelet watch

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a good Bluetooth watch bracelet (android).

This is for my wife - so the neater the better (also colour choice might be nice)

Ideally - answer calls, call notification/message etc (when phone is in the handbag)

Thanks in advance

Anybody have a Bluetooth Watch Bracelet?

Hi still looking for a "good value" Bluetooth watch suitable for my wife. Reasonable small and attractive (unlike me)

A few choices either buy a brand (from Argos) or Chinese from Adverts or Amazon etc

This is just really to be able to take calls/messages when her phone is in her bag (a little hard of hearing). Great if she could use it as a hands-free also

Any suggestions?

Here are some options from Argos (€125 - €150 price range)

what are you looking at price wise?

Seems to me you've identified suitable products.

This is to be a part-present for my wife.
She is not really into gadgets - so the more value the better (this could end up back in the box on a shelf - but she does have a habit of missing calls).

She is "petite" so a round or bracelet style would be best rather than a "brick".:cool:

An ability to take calls would be great (she has a HTC M9)

Really - I just wanted to know had anyone tried out the cheaper ("Chinese") models? Do they work or are they cr*p?

Personally I would prefer to spent €50 now and get 1 year+ out of the device and then move on to a better device when available. (and before any "cheapskate" comments - this is a part-present:D)

So if anyone has any useful recommendations - I would be grateful?
Thanks

Confused more than ever

My plan was to get a nice smart watch - with some sort of call function or notification.
When I look at the choices
Many of the phones are TOO BIG (or too bulky, particularly for a ladies watch), or else they are too expensive.

I'm not considering anything over €150 (so that rules out apple, Samsung LG, Moto 360 Huawei (?) & most Sonys)

The Sony Smartband Talk @ €149 - does what needed (buts its not very colourful)
The Alcatel OneTouch @ €125 - looks colourful (a little large for a small wrist) but it does not have a speaker/mic - so cant take or receive calls
the Pebble @ €125 - is very chunky looking (but has good reviews - but its bigger than a mobile my wife had

)
So that leaves the bracelets (Chinese) on Adverts, Amazon, Ebay etc coming in between €30 - €60.
I think I will have to chance one of these

Target: I suppose most of these items (higher end) are aimed at sports market rather than the retail therapy shopper, include a lot and are very LARGE (screen has to be big).
Hopefully - we might get a few slim line products - coming soon
