Sony India has announced today the launch of its two latest wearable devices in the Indian market – SmartWatch 3 ( SWR 50 ) at Rs. 19,990 and SmartBand Talk (SWR 30 ) at Rs. 12,990. Both these devices are available in black color.
SmartWatch 3 offers significant step ups from SmartWatch 2, and features a 1.6” 320×320 TFT LCD Transflective display for visibility in bright sunlight, set within a stainless steel back panel, for a premium look and feel. It is a waterproof, rated IP68 device– and charges via a standard microUSB port.
This smartwatch has a built-in 4GB local memory, that means you can sync playlists, and simply connects with a Bluetooth headset to listen. You can do this before a run, leaving the smartphone at home and still have great music offline – you can also track that run with GPS and Lifelog.
Smartwatch 3 is powered by Android Wear and organizes your information, suggests what you need, and shows it to you before you even ask. You can get messages from your friends, appointment notifications, and weather updates at a glance. It could be flight information, tips based on your interests or messages of any kind, so user input is seldom necessary.
Even without your Android smartphone, SmartWatch 3 is a fun and useful accessory with impressive standalone functionality. The built-in microphone, and Accelerometer, Compass, Gyro and GPS sensor technology means more accurate, more powerful lifelogging.
SmartBand Talk is a powerful lifelogger and features a curved, always-on 1.4” E-ink display. It comes with new built-in accelerometer and altimeter sensor technology which provide information such as how you move – and how much – and an accurate overview of your daily physical activity; whether it be walking, running or climbing. You can see how active you were and how you have been communicating, as it pulls all of your information from your smartphone and then enables you to view it on its E-Ink display screen.
With its built-in microphone and speaker, SmartBand Talk comes equipped with a short call function so you can talk into it and hear your caller, with HD Voice support – perfect for when you’re on the move or your phone is out of reach. Through Sony’s integrated Voice Control1 technology, you can also assign your own sounds to life bookmarks and use your voice to carry out specific smartphone operations.
Downloadable from the Google Play Store, Lifelog is a fun Android app built to enable you to set and achieve goals, bookmark memorable moments, and revisit memories any time, so that you get to know yourself better.
SmartBand Talk and SmartWatch 3 both enable and present lifelogging activity and data on the wrist, but also connect to the application on your Android smartphone via Bluetooth and NFC, once you connect to your Sony Entertainment Network
