The general public today insists that the
world still isn’t ready for a smartwatch. People are still grappling with
multiple devices like laptops, smartphones and tablets. Hence, owning an added
device that peeps with updates and messages is asking a bit too much for some.
However, that hasn’t stopped many brands from releasing various smartwatches,
all of which throng the latest smartwatch news for coverage.
One such smartwatch that has been crowned
as the most stylish smartwatch and has achieved quite a bit of success when
compared with other brands is the Moto 360. Last year’s release, the Moto 360
has managed to register a good number of sales and was well received by the
public and critics alike. This year, its successor, the Moto 360 Sport is all
set to fascinate fitness freaks. The new smartwatch runs on Android Wear and comes
with several features that are sure to enthral fitness enthusiasts.
Every facet of the 360 Sport has been
designed keeping in mind the need of workout enthusiasts. For starters, the
design itself comes as a silicone band, which helps to wick away moisture and
tends to resist fading or even staining. The smartwatch also comes with side
ventilation channels, which help the individual to not accumulate sweat under
the device.
On the features front, this smartwatch
comes with GPS and also acts as a fitness tracker, as it helps to track
calories burned and distance covered, along with small motivational titbits
when needed. Another feature that is being talked about in the latest smartwatch news is the display
of the device, which is said to be the world’s first hybrid screen, which is
said to automatically adapt to the level of light present around. This ensures
that visibility is good, irrespective of the lighting present around.
Besides the obvious fitness features added,
the smartwatch also acts as a basic smartwatch, providing you with timely
notifications received on your phone, including messages, mails and other basic
alerts that are all incorporated into the Android Wear software. Thus, besides
the aim of helping achieve good levels of fitness, this device also acts as a
regular smartwatch, fulfilling your basic needs as well. On the downside,
although this device looks smart, it is quite sporty and may or may not suit
people looking to buy a smartwatch that they can wear to the gym and in the
evenings to functions.
Today, the line separating fitness bands
and smartwatches is slowly getting blurred, as several smartwatch manufacturers
are looking to appease fitness enthusiasts with in-built health features in
their smartwatches. Almost everyone either is, or at least wishes to be fitter
and healthier. Thus, many brands are working towards incorporating as many
health related features into their devices, including smartphones and smartwatches.
The time when smartwatches may completely replace regular watches isn’t far by
the looks of it, although for now, the market for this sector is still
relatively limited to gadget enthusiasts.
