After the summer vacation and holidays, September preparing for us a flurry of new electronics. Samsung has its presentedAnd Sony, Motorola and, of course, Apple are going to present its new product line in the near future. In turn, many of us most expect the emergence of a new party wearable.
September this year will be a real revolution clockwise. We have already seen Smartwatch 2 from Sony, Galaxy Gear from Samsung and Toq from Qualcomm. But none of these products have not gained much popularity over the past year.
Disappointed with the Galaxy Gear and LG G Watch, many do decide to refrain from buying wearable. But this year promises to provide us with entirely different device, outstripping the previous generation.
Until now, smart watches lacked a full platform, as device manufacturers improvised each in their own way. Google is trying to solve the problem using the Android Wear SDK. Apple's, in turn, lays the foundation for its platform using frameworks and HealthKit HomeKit.
Among the existing smart watch, Pebble achieved the greatest success in building its own platform. However, the functionality has remained very limited hours, which makes them not very "smart". Pebble won the love of a particular audience, but still remained a huge niche market.
This year, the clock will acquire these platforms. This does not guarantee that they will work perfectly, but they will be an order of magnitude higher than existing devices.
Besides the lack of a full-fledged platform, many devices have been absurd. Manufacturers simply do not understand the difference between the design of conventional devices and wristwatches, which are constantly on the wrist. Until 2007, the Palm Treo smart phones and other Windows Mobile devices also have "smart", but totally devoid of imagination and aesthetic beauty.
In Moto 360 from Motorola, too, has its own style. We will not argue about how good it is, but the designers took a chance and did not unintelligible work, which will be forgotten the next day. If Apple's, in fact, introduce iWatch September 9, so that's that, and stylish, they will be accurate.
Watches Meta M1, which is rumored to have hit the market in September, too, have their own unique design. One gets the feeling that they made a very experienced company, is engaged in production hours and no phones.
As the functionality is still wearable manufacturers constantly had to compromise. Some have done very little, while others - too much. But in fact, everyone is waiting for neat minimalist clock with a certain set of functions that would have been a great companion of their smartphone.
Notifications certainly important. But they should not be the main feature of wearable, because, otherwise, few people want to buy them. All the same, if necessary, the smartphone is not so difficult to get out of his own pocket.
Of course, they should be tools such as Google Now and Siri. Such powerful voice assistant will help you to quickly enter the information that was not enough released devices.
Tracking health outcomes also play an important role in the success of smart watches. To date, they are important for so many people involved in fitness. The first watch that will have a positive impact on health outcomes, will be sold in millions of copies.
But, in fact, we still know very little about the new hours. So Recode claim that Apple will start selling the iWatch not earlier than 2015. Specificity Moto 360 also completely unknown. But, despite this, we are exactly at the threshold of a new revolution product, as it was in 2007 and 2010.
If the new clock disappoint us again, I'm afraid, manufacturers of these devices will soon be faced with the situation, "a boy who is constantly screaming about wolves." But in any case, this September will be extremely interesting.
