(Part 2) Top products from r/smartwatch

Check out the LG Urbane Watch. It does everything you listed, except typing text messages, only voice type.

I know I have seen apps on the store that have a keyboard for typing, but I am not sure of it will be what you are looking for.

Overall I have the Watch Urbane and I love it. I highly recommend it. :)

This is a streeeeeetch it might look a little too bootleg - but you can get Casio watchfaces for the Bip and add a case and change the band . Bip is also pretty basic smartwatch its pretty much a fitness tracker - I say someone will create another casio watchface for their new model the GTS.

I found an LG G Watch on Amazon for $145, where other places are selling it for $200. Gizmodo said the watch was fine but the Asus Zenwatch was cheaper (no longer true).

You may also be able to find cheaper Samsung watches, like the Gear Fit ($125), which Gizmodo was pretty adamant against because of what they called "garbage" software.

The reviews are from this article, but I sense some pro-Pebble and anti-Samsung bias in their smartwatch reviews.

I mean, I found this... Not very fashionable.

As far as I know, none of the mainstream watches have MicroSD (please correct me if I'm wrong). I wonder if having the SD card slot would make the watch bodies too big. Never really thought about it. I wish you luck on your adventure to find your perfect smartwatch.

Does your son have a phone? If not, that Vtech watch seems like about as good of a stand-alone watch as it gets.

Edit: This looks like another good one: https://www.amazon.com/LINSAY-NEW-EX-5L-Eexecutive-Touchscreen/dp/B00W4DRZ04/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1480700313&sr=8-1&keywords=linsay+smart+watch

I was looking at that one but it seems a little bulky, I was hoping for something more svelte like the Vivosmart

the ladies LOVE a RoRoDox

The Alcatel Watch is supposed to be released "mid-March" (so, a couple weeks from now?) and will retail at $150. It's a touchscreen which supports both Android and iOS. It's a proprietary OS with a companion phone app but apparently no 3rd-party appstore (at this time?) but it does seem to have a comprehensive array of apps preinstalled and I'm not sure what 3rd-party apps you'd really need - especially considering the price:

I was looking for screen protector but due to I'm from México I don't want to pay a lot for an extra delivery so i found this ones https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U9U23XI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3ERO5WWGZCNON, how much do u want for the bracelet and can you attach a picture?

I take that back - kind of. If you're looking outside of more "proper" brands, then you'll find stuff like this: https://www.amazon.com/Luxsure%C2%AE-Bluetooth-Bracelet-Smartwatch-Smartphones/dp/B011IFQ7YS

Though I'm sure it's awful.

Not sure if it qualifies as a "smartwatch," but the Martian Notifier is very cheap.

Hate to break it to you but that's just not going to happen. You need a phone for Twitter and Instagram and Hearthstone and texting on a watch is a pain in the ass. Any internet browsers on watches are as slow as hell at best and basically unusable due to the screen size. And why on Earth would you want to do everything on a tiny screen with a tiny battery?

If you're looking for an arm/wrist mounted computer then just strap a phone to your forearm. There's tons of these kinds of straps and a few of them are water resistant.
