These days everything is getting smarter, smart TV’s, smart thermostats, smart cars, smart just about everything. Naturally smart watches have come along too.
I was recently lucky enough to receive a Michael Kors – Access Runway Smartwatch from Best Buy to try out and share my thoughts with you.
Of course, having a watch on your wrist, which is a synced up to your phone helps keep you up to date and on top of calendar reminders, messages and so much more.
However, you can also work on tracking your work outs, fitness, heart rate and much more. Utilizing Google Fit app’s two new activity trackers—Heart Points and Move Minutes (designed in partnership with the American Heart Association and the World Health Organization), you’re able to measure activity intensity and smarter health coaching makes your fitness goals more achievable by motivating you to stay active throughout your day, everyday.
I sit at a desk all day so I am really enjoying that my watch is telling me to get up and get some activity if I’ve been inactive for too long. PLUS I get to do all of this in the comfort and style that Michael Kors is known for.
The Michael Kors smart watch comes in a 42 mm stainless steel case with either a gold-tone or rose gold-tone finish – I received the gold-tone and I love it.
While there are so many things that this watch allows you to do some of my favorite are;
Google Assistant – it helps me with things I didn’t even know I wanted help with.
Google Pay – I know have the ability to use Google Pay at most establishments that accept credit cards, with a simple wave of my wrist.
Ability to maximize my time – easily glance at notifications and use smart, pre-programmed replies on the go.
Customizable – you are able to customize the watch face with pre-loaded designs or sync it up to your social media and use photos that you’ve posted. It’s like a new watch each time I change it.
The Michael Kors Access Runway Smartwatch is compatible with iPhone/iOS and Android, however, all my review was done with an Android phone as that is what we use.
There is still time to head over to Best Buy TODAY to grab one of these for yourself, or someone else, these holidays. Simply click HERE to order now (for in store pick up), or head to your local store.
