Best Small Sized Smartwatches In The Market In 2020
Published: | Updated:
Looking for a small smartwatch? You might be looking for smartwatches for kids or even just a small-screened smartwatch for yourself which is not easy to find! Don’t panic! We’ve got you covered with our list of the top 10 smallest smartwatches, as chosen by our editors.
What does small mean? Well, the benchmark we have set for our list of smallest smartwatches is that each smartwatch must have a 38mm diameter case or smaller. Many have an even smaller case than this. If that matches up with your expectations, read on to discover a wide range of exciting small smartwatches.
Editor’s note: All the following smartwatches are hybrid smartwatches with an analog dial. They are not touchscreen smartwatches. At this present time, there are no touchscreen smartwatches on the market with a case diameter of 38mm or less.
The List Of Top 9 Smallest Hybrid Smartwatches
Skagen Signatur T-Bar
Case size: 36mm | Case thickness: 12mm | Strap width: 16mm
Skagen Signature T-Bar
Size 36mm
We start our list with the Skagen Signature T-Bar, a beautiful hybrid smartwatch by any measure. The model we have chosen, the SKT1404P, has a 36mm case. The case thickness is 12mm, which makes it very dainty indeed.
The Signature T-Bar is also available in a range of different colors. Your choices are a rose gold case with white dial, stainless steel case with a white dial, or a stainless-steel case with a grey dial. All models feature a useful 3ATM water-resistant rating.
The standout feature of this smartwatch is the T-Bar lug connector, which helps it appear even smaller on the wrist than it really is. Smart features include fitness tracking, automatic time zones, and silent notifications.

Size 34mm
Case size: 34mm | Case thickness 12mm | Strap width: 16mm
If you want something even smaller and you like what Skagen has to offer, the Skagen Mini Hald has a 34mm case. It’s the same thickness at 12mm, although it has a more functional design thanks to three prominent buttons on its side.
Being a hybrid smartwatch, the Skagen Mini Hald has an analog watch face. It is not dissimilar to the Signature T-Bar’s watch face, but the outer numeral ring has been moved outwards to create a more minimalist dial that blends into the case.
Available in silver, rose gold or in rose gold with a grey leather strap, the Skagen Mini Hald is unisex and will complement a slender wrist perfectly. It’s one of the finest small smartwatches on the market in our opinion.

This is one of our favorite small smartwatches because it has a classy dial and comes in at a great price. It’s particularly striking in Tan / Cream, although there are four decent color configurations to choose from. The straps are also interchangeable.
