While smartwatches running on proprietary software can have loads of benefits, such as impressively lengthy battery life, having Wear OS on your watch is a totally different league. It opens up the way for much more interfunctionality and customization, which is certainly what a specific demographic is looking for in a modern smartwatch.
Some of the best smartwatches we know of run on Wear OS though, like the Galaxy Watch 5 or the Fossil Gen 6. Sure, battery life is nowhere near the week-or-so that Huawei and Xiaomi watches can promise, but in terms of utility, there is no match.
The Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro looks really impressive in terms of build quality.
Who knows? This might be the missing link that boosts Xiaomi smartwatches into a prosperous run. We’re eager to see what the Mi company will be able to do with Wear OS — if this alleged info turns out to be true — and we hope to see it on our next rendition of top smartwatches to go for.
