Theres something about this smartwatch revolution that feels a bit, I dont know, forced?
Its the case of a product without a problem, a solution to something that isnt broken.
Its like a variety of chair lifts to a mountain without snow.
I could be wrong.
I felt the same way about the Apple iPad when it was released.
Now I used mine every night in bed and on every photo job I take.
Beyond theApple Watchand the Android Play devices, a few other newcomers are doing some truly innovative things.
The Olio Model One Smartwatch is a prime example.
In short, the Olio Model One is your world at a glance.
Its not a second screen or a fitness dongle or a glorified app controller.
Upon closer inspection, theres a series of concentric circles with varying towers that represent activity.
In the future tense, these can show calendar items as they approach the current time.
Elsewhere, it can show activity based on email/sms/voicemail notifications.
With a swipe on the screen, Olio can interface with Android or iOS to make that happen.
I appreciate the Olio Model One for its simple, elegant but useful display.
you could see an overview of your day with just a casual glance.
you’re free to see when you have a lull in activity to take some time for yourself.
Thats what made the traditional watch so valuable in the first place.
It ispriced from $745, and is available right now.
