Meta M1

The Meta M1 is a good-looking but limited smartwatch designed to act as a companion to your smartphone. It provides an array of data and alerts throughout the day, ranging from weather conditions and news updates to incoming emails and text messages.

Solidly built ; Looks great ; Reliable Bluetooth connectivity

Dim LCD screen ; Limited features ; Short battery life

While good looking and solidly made, the Meta M1 amounts to little more than an alert system with rather poor battery life.

Meta M1 smartwatch review

Smartwatches of the future will either fall into two camps: those that pack tons of features and are part of mobile ecosystems, like Android Wear, and those that just try to be everyday, slightly-smarter watches.

The Meta M1 smartwatch has an attractive, aggressive design, works with Android and iOS, lasts multiple days on a single charge, and can filter notifications from your phone. It's also visible in bright sunlight.

No touchscreen, no apps. A simplified set of features that might not satisfy everyone. UI can get confusing to navigate. The built-in watch faces aren't as attractive as the actual watch.

While it's not the perfect replacement for an everyday wristwatch, the iOS and Android-friendly Meta M1 is a simplified smartwatch that gets a lot of things right.

Is the Meta M1 smartwatch a sexier-looking smartwatch for everyone?

In a world of ever-multiplying smartwatches, can the stylish but simple Meta M1 stand out based on looks alone? We wore one for a week to find out.

No touchscreen, no apps. A simplified set of features that might not satisfy everyone. UI can get confusing to navigate. The built-in watch faces aren't as attractive as the actual watch.

While it's not the perfect replacement for an everyday wristwatch, the iOS and Android-friendly Meta M1 is a simplified smartwatch that gets a lot of things right.
