Shortcomings of a smartwatch? Can you explain? I thought smartwatches had all kinds of utility.

All I can think of is having to charge it often

It definitely has more utility but having a mechanical watch on wrist is more “fun”

Yeah you hit the nail on the head. I like the health/fitness tracking features, I also like being able to see notifications at a glance and the vibration motor as a subtle alarm rather than sound, but having to charge yet another piece of tech daily started to become cumbersome.

That and the aesthetics of a regular watch are something I love quite a lot more than a smartwatch (though the galaxy watch 4 classic really looks great)
