Where will the ASUS ZenWatch 3 land in our list of the best smartwatches for Android?

Smartwatches continue to get better and better, and for some companies that expectation is finally manifesting itself in 2016’s smartwatches. That couldn’t be any more true for ASUS, whose less-than-savory ZenWatch series got a huge upgrade with the introduction of the ZenWatch 3.

Introduced at this year’s IFA 2016, the ZenWatch 3 falls in line with the “round is good” mentality being adopted by the big boys. That said, a smartwatch needs more than the right shape to be considered one of the best.

As such, the ZenWatch 3 will have a lot of considerations for a spot on our list. It’s not looking like  a special smartwatch from our early impressions, but if the price is right — and with ASUS, it usually is — that could be a determining factor in whether we consider it one of the best smartwatches you can buy to go along with your Android Wear phone.

Don’t forget that we’re also still awaiting the Samsung Gear S3 to see where it’ll debut once Samsung makes it available later this year. For now, have a look at October’s list straight ahead.
