    Or rather help me buy an Android watch for my son for Xmas.
    Really don't want to buy from China.
    Budget wise hopefully under 200.
    If it's got some sort of sports mode/gps even better but at the above Price point I am not holding out for great gos etc.
    TIA

    Bargain alerts forum.
    Huawei W1 on sale on Amazon UK for 160.
    One of the best android watches.

    Looks like a great watch but probably a bit too 'smart/ formal' looking for a 15 yo

    Formal as in for the body/bezel design?
    The watch face is changeable to any design you can download onto the watch.

    Sony SW3 for 90€ in Curry's. Doesn't look great but feature wise it isn't far behind the late-2015 generation of smartwatches (2016 hasn't really been released yet)

    Got a SW3 lately in Argos for not much more than the curry's price. Does what it does well enough, 4 day battery life.

    I'd been eyeing up the Samsung Gear S2 currently selling for €245 on Amazon
    http://pricespy.ie/product.php?p=3312998

    I know the S3 is about to launch any day now so this might even drop further in price. Anyone seen it cheaper anywhere else or got any advice on these things?
    Are there any better alternatives out there?
    Is it worth paying a bit more to get a better model?
