Sometimes products are dead on arrival because they "surprise" the user with a fundamentally different implementation than the one they expected. In this case, the "phone-shaped" object isn't a phone at all. In fact, you can toss it in the trash if you like. Instead, the bulky, underpowered wrist piece is the one you need to keep track of and care about. If your "phone" (watch) is dying, you can save battery by using the "monitor" (phone?). Or if you feel awkward talking to your "watch" (phone), just talk instead to the "phone" (monitor). It won't surprise me that as components get smaller and smaller, these communications devices change over time, but as for today... Just, no.
