Hi i am trying to change to healthier more organized lifestyle. I would like to get a smartwatch mainly for fitness purposes, and i do not know if apple watch is worth it for me. My budget allows me to only go for a used s5/s6. Or a brand new Amazfit model.

I do not recieve a lot of notifications, i am not in a call very often so making a phone call from the watch is negligible. Maybe the only useful feature i would regularly use is being able to pay with my watch.

Those who switched from to 3rd party to apple watches, was it worth it? In what way apple watch is more useful? What features does 3rd party miss?

The Apple Watch is a great smartwatch for many people, but not for all. Fortunately today there are many options available to choose from. Think about what are the things that you will want to do with your smartwatch and look for the device that best match your characteristics, preferences and needs.
