Watches that work with an iPhone, other than the Apple Watch

Samsung, Pixel and OnePlus watches do not pair with an iPhone at all, but 44 watches from other makers do. 28 of them come with limits on iPhone that their makers spell out (usually message replies). The trade against an Apple Watch is apps and payments for battery: the Garmin Enduro 4 claims 36 days.

How this list is ordered: Every watch from a maker other than Apple that pairs with an iPhone, ordered by price. 44 of the catalog’s watches qualify.
