We’re having a lot more trouble with this whole smartwatch thing than we anticipated. What seemed like a promising device, the smartwatch has been plagued by poor functionality and terrible design. The Meta M1 is the latest to try and tackle those problems. Available in eight different styles, most of which look pretty sharp, the M1 allows you to customize the screen settings so you can have a watch that appeals to you. Use it to get notifications from hundreds of apps or just to control your music. While we wait to see what Apple has up its sleeve, the M1 from Meta is one of the better-looking options out there.
