When everybody started to have mobile phones around me, I shelled out for a PDA (remember those?) instead and wanted to wait for those headsets to actually not need any phone anymore. I hoped the advent of the smartwatch would get us there, but alas. I have a smartphone now, because what else can you do, but I can't wait for the time that I can just voicedail or at least have my watch be the personal computing device. Carrying around a watch is so much beter than carrying around a phone, but Google makes me carry both! Plus headset/in ears!
- zanderwohl 6y agoThis wasn't mentioned in the article, but the newer cellular variants of the watch allow you to place and receive calls even without your phone nearby. You can also stream music, stream podcasts, etc. without the phone nearby, listening with a bluetooth headset. I suspect certain android ones do as well, though I don't know which ones. I like the idea of only carrying around a watch + headset. I'm actually thinking of doing this next month.
