Apple may have ventured in
an unsafe territory being a newbie in the wearable business where most of the
Android makers have already jump-started. But the Cupertino giant never
disappoints. Given the fact that it has made several markets out of thin air,
it is slated to be the leader in this space. The world witnessed what a
smartwatch ought to be when Apple announced the Apple Watch which is slated to
come early of 2015.
This wearable makes personal connections and links people to innovative technology. It’s like a mini computer attached on your wrist with powerful software that gives a new experience to every user.
If you’re not a techie
person and have been satisfied wearing an ordinary watch, maybe it’s about
time for you to rethink and see what this smartwatch has to offer.
Features
Starting with the basics,
the device gives accurate time and adjusts to local time when you travel to
different places. Beyond that, it sends alerts and notifications from your
smartphone to your wrist. The homescreen gives you access to applications like
music, photos, Maps, Calendar and more with the UI that you can navigate
through the use of the Digital Crown.
Intuitive Hands-free UI with Siri
It also enables you to communicate by sending and receiving messages and making calls. You can summon Siri chanting the keyword “Hey Siri” where you can dictate messages, get direction, perform searches and a lot more.
Health-conscious
Likewise, it tracks your
activities and displays fitness reports to keep you going, meet your goals and
ultimately live a healthier life. This also comes with a companion app, the
Health App that allows you to share information on third-party health and
fitness applications.
If you're wondering, of all the smartwatch, why did the
Apple Watch made it to the cut? I mean there is a small number of watches that
could offer more beef in feature set like 3G connectivity, additional sensors
and flexibility in storage options. But why the Apple Watch? I guess its all
about brand superiority, the power that a device commands in every user and the
potential brand loyalty that it could muster in the future - that placed the
Apple Watch in the pedestal.
Watch for All
The device comes in three different flavors to fit your
style: a classic Apple Watch with stainless steel case and sapphire crystal on
its display panel; a sporty Watch with anodized aluminium case in silver or
space gray, protected by Ion-X glass matched with colourful bands; and the
exquisite Watch Edition with 18-karat of gold plating and sapphire crystal
display with beautifully crafted bands and closures. The price starts at $349
for the base model
