From time to time, the arm of iron between the giant companies of the world of technology (Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, Samsung, Microsoft, Sony) has been an element that is not so successful so: the smart watches (smartwatches).
In a conversation with a friend iUser (Apple user, Apple Lover, Apple Fan or whatever you want to add to designate Apple's loyal followers), I reminded you that Sony is a pioneer in most entertainment-related technologies. I speak of televisions, video players, radios, smart watches… Yes, Sony was one of the first companies to invest in smart watches and to make them compatible with an operating system that had a promising future in the era, the Android operating system.
Now Android is no longer a child, quite the opposite, it has legs to move around this whole planet and so Sony thought to continue this project of the smart watches, launching the “Sony Smartwatch 2".
Sony's old Smartwatch used Bluetooth to communicate with a smartphone Android, in this new version the technology used will be “NFC”. With the smart watch you can receive notifications E-mails, Facebook, Twitter, call and message notifications. In addition to these functions, which already existed in the 1st version, it is possible to make and answer calls (using a Bluetooth headset / microphone), take photos and browse maps on the smartphone from a distance. Add to these functionalides, the always useful possibility of watering the watch. According to Sony, it is totally waterproof. Can you ask for more?
What is the disadvantage of this type of watch?
When there is no connection with the smartphone and internet connection, it will “only” serve to show the time, use the alarm and the flashlight. Things we get from an ordinary watch.
Not yet known the official price of the device, we will be attentive. For those who have not yet seen one of these smartphones, as by chance I've had the chance to test the first version of the Sony watch, I'll try to publish a video with the gadget in action.
For now, stick with the promotional video of Smartwatch 2
