About this deal

Of course, the Armani Exchange’s classic watch design helps here. Instead of taking the Apple approach of launching a smartwatch which looks like a cross between a timepiece and a gadget, the Connected looks exactly like a normal watch - albeit one with a touchscreen.

We're not saying they're completely useless as standalone apps, but it just feels odd being redirected to the Assistant app when you want to change your settings, for example.

Wear OS gets a smart new suit

As we show above, that screen can once again be set to always-on, with a touch on the screen or a wrist-raise lighting things up in more detail. This is one of the few things Wear watches beat rivals to the punch on, and it still works great. Armani Exchange watches are crafted with care and sophistication, becoming elegant, evergreen symbols of men’s fashion, where cutting-edge trends meet the world of high-end design. We were hoping for a better performance than with the Emporio Armani Connected 2018, which refused to work, but, exhaustingly, the same issue occurred here.

As for the display, the Armani Exchange Connected uses a circular 1.2-inch AMOLED panel with a resolution of 380 x 390 and a pixel density of 328 pixels per inch. The screen is visible in most circumstances when its brightness level is left to automatic, but sometimes we struggled to read it in bright sunlight. You can also add your favorite applications from the Google Play store to your smartwatch. Smartwatches are powered with Android Wear by Google and are compatible with iOS 9+, Android OS 4.4+ phones. The Armani Exchange smartwatch collection is filled with great promise for the future. Armani Exchange – men silver-toned and navy blue Dexler AXT2000 is one of the best luxury models you have ever seen. Armani Exchange smartwatch Armani Exchange men’s watches are the perfect blend of the urban, modern and carefree style of the brand. Armani Exchange men’s watches are much more than a simple detail: distinctive elements that can enrich your outfit with a hint of sophistication and elegance so you never go unnoticed. So many styles, from elegant watches to sports styles, designed to satisfy all tastes: analogue watches, digital watches, with leather, steel or silicone straps. For years, battery life has been the same equation on Wear OS watches. And while you still won't be getting multiple days of life between charges, battery efficiency has improved on the Smartwatch 3 from last year's model.Is it a convincing alternative to the best smartwatches currently available? We've been putting the Emporio Armani Smartwatch 3 to the test to find out.

Google Fit, for example, is relatively okay to use, echoing the simplicity of the Google Home app, but, still, the emphasis on Move Minutes and Heart Points makes the whole experience feel like a sub-par imitation of Apple's rings. While last year's model slightly over-reported average heart rate, this time around it was always within 1-2 bpm, or, as above, right in line with the Versa. There’s one for all tastes. Rich colour palettes, silicone straps and three types of movement for analogue styles, as well as eye-catching numbers on the display for those who prefer digital watches. Athletes will love our chronograph watches. A vast array of materials, such as brushed or stainless steel, leather and silicone are combined with the latest colour palette, creating accessories that will please the most demanding tastes. We're not sure who would use it in this capacity, considering you have to have your phone nearby and connected to Bluetooth for it to work, but it's also there for those who enjoy exercise read-outs or Google Assistant responses. A neat upgrade, albeit admittedly minor.Thankfully, the heart rate sensor on the underside of the watch was more reliable in testing. The above example is fairly indicative of what we found in three test runs against the Fitbit Versa 2. Watches from the Emporio Armani men’s collection are the perfect embodiment of the brand’s carefree, refined style. Emporio Armani watches are an accessory that should never be underestimated. Their distinctive look adds a sophisticated, impeccable allure to any outfit. For reference, that's just slightly cheaper than the latest Apple Watch, and around more expensive than the Apple Watch Series 3. And Emporio Armani is also out-pricing the excellent Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 and the Fossil Gen 5.
