smartwatches
- 1Plural of smartwatch.

Note
The ending is -es rather than a bare -s, because the singular closes on the hissing /tʃ/ sound of watch. That ending adds a full syllable, so the plural is said smart-watch-iz, just as wristwatch becomes wristwatches. The plural covers both kinds of device the singular names: a wristwatch with electronic functions beyond timekeeping, and a touchscreen device worn on the wrist.
