My week testing a $200 smartwatch was a total mess, but I'm weirdly glad it happened.

I used to want perfect gadgets, but @anderson.taylor is right, the messy ones really make you think.

My old smart scale once weighed my cat at 180 pounds, which is exactly what @anderson.taylor means about learning from the mess.

That "sleeping while making coffee" thing is a whole new level of wrong. What kind of sleepwalking does it think you're doing, grinding beans with your eyes closed? My old scale would just give up and call me "ERROR" if I stepped on it wrong.

Feel your pain on that one. My cheap fitness tracker kept telling me I was asleep while I was literally making coffee. Sometimes a total disaster teaches you more than a perfect gadget ever could.
