I would be amazed and/or shocked if it had a 3G radio in. It surely has to be paired with a phone for data access. The power requirements alone would result in a watch that had a 2 hour battery! I suppose it could use WiFi, but that seems unlikely. I am guessing bluetooth pairing...
- dangravell 13y agoMakes sense.
- krzyk 13y agoWell, it doesn't have to be 3G, good old GSM, so I could leave my phone in the locker and go to gym and have all the data available to me right there. It has small screen, which most of the time should be turned off, without bluetooth (which is battery hungry also) and without wifi, I think it should work for 1 day. That kind of smartwatch I would definitely buy.
- ssmoot 13y agoI'd really hope the screen never goes to sleep. That would kinda defeat the whole point of the idea IMO. Make it bluetooth only. Try to give it a decent battery. Maybe a peltier could help stretch it further (seen on some watches, though I suspect the space would be better used for a larger battery since this watch would be much more power hungry)? Still. Pretty pumped about this.
