Watch it work.
Ironically, this watch with the “iTouch” branding that really sounds like it’s going to be aiming to knock off Apple actually ends up being one of the few lower cost smartwatches that aren’t trying to be an Apple Watch.
Check it out.
It’s round. It’s kind of cool looking. And it has a no-nonsense interface that is going to give you the info you need at a glance and won’t try to show off with weird animations or tiny photos from your camera roll that you never asked to see when trying to check the time.
Also, this does a great job of limiting its functionality to things that are actually useful and avoids stuff that isn’t particularly convenient to do on a two-inch screen mounted to your wrist.
For example, you can read a text message but you can’t send a text message. That’s because a watch screen is very conducive to reading a message and is genuinely quite terrible for composing one. For sending a text message, you’re going to reach into your pocket, pull out your phone, and do it on a device that makes a damn bit of sense for the job at hand.
Cool, right?
Tons of battery compared to an Apple Watch, too. (Think a week instead of a day.) Pretty great.
