Smartwatches are going to be the next big thing. They’ll keep us connected, keep us informed, and make it feel like we’re living in the future.

A good smartwatch does three things: it makes it easy to see the time, it makes it easy to see notifications that show up on your phone, and it looks good, so you don’t feel like you’re wearing a computer on your wrist everywhere you go. It should allow you to keep your phone in your bag or pocket and only pull it out for important notifications.

Check out the types of smartwatches Jumia is currently offering.
