But these are complaints about the current, early generation smartwatches. The display on my dumbphone is easily readable in sunlight, and they could make the watches with material that
converts body heat to voltage so that you don't have to worry about charging.
This is different from the other complaints about the redundancy of having a device on your wrist that does some of the same things as the device in your pocket.
