Yeah, inductive charging is basically a must.
Especially because it eliminates the guesswork if the watch is correctly seated to charge
Comment on I would maybe like a smart watch, can you help me decide?

If you ever sweat, like ever, smart watches may not be for you. I’ve had 3, different brands (all Android Wear OS), and my sweat eventually tarnished the charging contacts to the point of no use (even after being cleaned with alcohol and something abrasive) all three times.
So, if you sweat, you’re gonna wanna make sure the charging contacts don’t touch your skin. Ever.

Galaxy Watch, the original Pixel Watch and the Apple Watch have no charging contacts. It’s really the way to go.
The contacts have been an issue forever, like I remember it messing up a Fitbit a decade ago. Really crazy that it’s still a problem.
