I was thinking of getting something I wear 24/7 for monitoring my heart rate etc. and since I have a samsung phone the default choice was a samsung smartwatch. The other alternatives I found recommended were American (garmin, fitbit, apple...) but are there any European alternatives? I kinda expected europe to lead with this kind of health related things tbo.
