Wearable technology is going to be popular this holiday season as it has for the past few years. Here are five options that your family will really enjoy!

Apple Watch Series 5

Whether you’re focused on fitness or just enjoy using technology frequently, the Apple Watch Series 5 offers tons of amazing features and a quality build that helps you really get the most out of your iPhone.

Product Details

This watch features Apple’s signature Retina display, which has such a high resolution that you can’t really distinguish individual pixels, making it all look seamless and clean. The display is bright and colorful and is a touch screen.

Activity Tracking

• The Apple Watch 5 tracks regular things like the distance you’ve run/walked or the amount of time you’ve spent exercising.
• However, it also tracks things like heart rate and sleep patterns. If you’re feeling tired, the watch might be able to show you what times at night you’re experiencing poor sleep.
• The watch even tracks things like noise levels in decibels, letting you know when it’s a bit too loud. This can help you prevent long term hearing loss from staying in a loud noise environment for too long.
• It also has an app for tracking and logging information about your menstrual cycle.

Garmin Forerunner 35

Some people today can get confused by all the complex features in some smartwatches. There are ones that try to do so much in such a compact device that it starts to become a bit scrambled.

The Garmin Forerunner 35 takes things back to basics and delivers you all of the information you want to know in a simple, easy to understand package.

Product Details

The actual watch portion displays a very clean and minimalistic digital clock, along with the date and battery charge level. During typical use, this is all you’re going to need to know throughout the day while you’re using it as a watch.

Just because this watch is basic doesn’t mean it doesn’t have fancy features. The GPS system in this watch is among the best, keeping detailed information on your runs that you can use to track your progress.

GoPro HERO8 Black

If you like going out on adventures, from hiking to skydiving, you might be interested in getting a GoPro to record your journeys. GoPros can be attached to all kinds of different mounts and are highly resistant to the elements, which is very useful if you’re out in the rain or even underwater.

Product Details

The GoPro HERO8 has extraordinary video capability, as it can record in 4K resolution at 60 frames per second. This is amazing quality for a standard camera, let alone for one of this size.

In photo mode, it can take photos at 12MP, which is very detailed. It can also livestream footage at 1080p, which is very impressive.

Snap Spectacles 2

One of the most unique and popular social media platforms to come about in the past few years is Snapchat. Snapchat allows users to send and receive videos and pictures to one another as the main form of communication, and users can also post videos and pictures to their stories, which allows all of their friends to view them until the story expires.

Snapchat recently developed a whole new form of wearable technology: the Snap Spectacles.

Product Details

The Spectacles are sunglasses with a camera and microphone mounted on them, which allows you to film a POV video without having to hold your phone out in front of you. They look like standard sunglasses that you would typically wear, so they don’t stand out too much.

To get started, you sync these glasses up with your phone and connect it to your Snapchat app.

Then, you can press the button to capture the next 10 seconds or double tap it to continuously record. If you hold it down, it takes a singular photo. Whatever you select, it then gets transferred to the app so that you can edit it and finally post it or send it to whoever you want.
