This is an interesting approach: this device will free you from constantly checking all those other devices.
To me this is the selling point of the Apple Watch, and it's hard to see what this does that a watch does not.
- LASR 6y agoThey're clearly going for the other end of the spectrum here. A watch is something that is attached to you, regardless of what other clothing/shoes/bags you may have. This is attached to the clothing/shoes/bags you may have, regardless of whether you're in it or not. The only way this can work out is if the device can be built so cheaply that it can be integrated into most items of clothing to be ubiquitous (like the anti-theft tags). The point of a smart watch is that you own one, and so device vendors can pack in a ton of tech inside it to make it compelling. And since you only need one, they can probably price it high, and offer some sort of accessory system to cater to different style preferences. The Apple Watch totally nails this product. This product, IMHO, is a disaster from a product perspective, not even going into the tech involved. What do I do if I chose to not wear my blue jean jacket that day? No functionality? Maybe I'll cut this little device out of the jacket and put it into my coat sleeve. It's basically a really terrible smart watch at this point.
- SahAssar 6y ago> this device will free you from constantly checking all those other devices. How? The only way this device will indicate anything to the user is by vibrating, just like your phone (or watch) already can do.
