At $170, the Sony SmartWatch 3 is An Incredible Value

It's not nearly as sexy or well-known as the Moto 360, but the Sony SmartWatch 3 might just be the best Android Wear watch on the market right now.

The experience of using it is going to be pretty similar to other Android Wear watches, but with three key differentiators:

  1. It's slightly more waterproof than most other smart watches
  2. Its transflective screen allows you to read it in bright sunlight without cranking up the backlight
  3. Built-in GPS makes it a capable fitness tracker without needing to carry your phone

If those sound appealing (and they should!), you can grab one for just $170 right now. [Sony SmartWatch 3, $170]
