Which is the better smart watch for the M7 or should I just wait until HTC bring out one when they release the M8 upgrade?

Ok firstly, HTC probably won't release a smartwatch sometime soon.

Secondly, why do you want a smart watch? What do you use it for?

pebble: monochrome display. most practical I say, with long battery life and does what it's supposed to do. Yet as I say again, the display colour is only black.

Sony: All rounder with colour display, great functionality and easy to set up and use. I personally use this one.

Others: Samsung only works with the galaxy phones, so that's a no go.

If I were you I'd wait for the Moto 360 (which will be released this year) or the HTC Smartwatch(also supposed to be released this year)

Don't buy any of the current smartwatches as they aren't very good.

The HTC on has been announced and then another statement saying by the end of the year, then a mk2 probably next year which if bundled with the new phone is a winner for me, and I want one that can alert me of notifications etc, phones always on silent in my pocket so it will be a bonus.

And you are experienced with the current watches? If you are going to just make blanket statements you might as well try and back them up. Otherwise you look like an idiot.

I actually have a pebble, and it is an absolutely fantastic device.

It shows text message, phone calls, emails, FB notifications, whats app messages, etc, right on the screen.

I can control my music from it and it even displays what song is playing.

Battery lasts 5-7 days

Waterproof.

You can get tons of cool watchfaces, that show information like weather and stuff.

Lots of alarm settings and apps.

You can even get apps that do push notifications for google maps right on your watch, or allow you to call people from the watch.

Honestly I found myself wearing my pebble more than my countless other watches.

Maybe I should've elaborated more on why.

Yeah the Pebble isn't bad but you need to use two apps and a website to manage Pebble, it sucks the battery of the phone and the connection isn't very stable. At least that is my own experience with it. Maybe I wasn't lucky but I've spoken more people about the Pebble and they had the same issues.

It's great, but not as 'smart' as a smartwatch should be imho

If you want to spend more money. There is a company which builds mechanical watches with smartwatch features. Just Google for "Karios Smartwatch".
Here is a link to the video.

Even though I could, I could never warrant that price and I doubt it will look that good in reality. It does look an amazing concept though.

Just wait today for the Moto 360 presentation, the price should be around $ 250 and the design looks great!
