Old model lah, can't even make calls/etc. Even the newer Smart Watch 2 can't "talk" to the watch because it doesn't have a speaker or microphone

Btw, price for the Sony watch 2 is USD269, you think it's cheap huh? Galaxy Gear is only USD299

I believe those are older/first generation models.

Perhaps OP should include what features qualifies as a smart watch. Then the discussion will get more interesting.

A smart watch should not only pack features but also aesthetically pleasing and comfy to wear. IMHO, should be a balance of all this.

USD269! ringgit weak now.

ohh I see
luckily my hand is small enough

*that 1 I stated in 1st page smartwatch 2 @@
and pebble no idea for it
and is the cheapest among 4 of them

ya

pebble only USD150, cheap.

smartwatch 2 100% out of my choice ...

yes I gonna put into 1st page
give me some time buddy ..

someone selling pebble for rm520, cheap.

Finally man...

but sometimes i still dnt und the use of a smart watch. its kindda pricey i would say.

check out these 2 wearables, which blow the current crop of smartwatches out of the water

Omate TrueSmart

Neptune Pine

Both (and more if you search, including the WIMM, Plus+, and SimValley) are pretty good contenders for upcoming wearables

Omate is pretty interesting. Would be interesting to know the price

Neptune is way too big

Making or receiving calls without ever taking out your phone from your pockets?

the Omate will retail at an estimated USD299 at launch. Kickstarter prices are about USD199 now (add USD15 for delivery out of US, and add USD20 for 1GB of RAM)

what's a good point also is that right now, all of the watches will feature sapphire crystal, which is extremely durable and scratch resistant. None of the above wearables feature this yet.

And yes, the Pine is huge... like wearing a pager on your wrist!

Also, the Omate is running 4.2.2, while the Pine is running ICS only

Remembered during 80s, when Michael Knight talk to his car via his watch, so envy about it, wish will come true...
Finally, now after 30 years, we can talk thru our watch...

Just to chime in. I think all smart watches should be cross-platform compatible i.e. it should support the 2 mainstream OS'es, Android and IOS. What I noticed is those non-OEM products e.g. those from Kickstarter, majority supports them with companion application to fully utilize the watch's features.

I wouldn't want to buy a watch which specifically runs on one platform and worse still run on a particular phone(s) from the same manufacturer.

I used to own this



As for smart watches, better buy waterproof ones.

tell this to samsung.. currently the Gear only can be used with Note 3

That will be the same when IWatch comes out.

another 2 smartwatch to add into 1st page
give me some time ..

yup that right, no point for just support 1 platform only
and water resistant is every watch must have feature, so far galaxy gear don't support it as they didn't mention, maybe yes or no
and confirmed that smartwatch 2 is supporting, too bad can't accept call, see sms, etc ...

no lar dude
support for s3, s4, note 2, note 3 and note 10.1 2014

now latest news say support all device
