Sony has launched its SmartWatch 3 and SmartBand Talk wearables in the
Indian market at Rs 19,990 and Rs 12,990, respectively. Both of the devices are
available in variants of black.
Both wearable devices connect with Sony's Lifelog, an app that allows users to track their health, lifestyle patterns and smartphone usage.
SmartWatch 3 offers significant step ups from SmartWatch 2, including a 1.6-inch 320x320 TFT LCD Transflective display for visibility in bright sunlight, set within a stainless steel back panel. It is waterproof and charges via a standard microUSB port.
It has 4GB internal storage, allowing users to store music and connects with a Bluetooth headset.
The SmartWatch 3 is the first Sony Smartwatch to be powered by Google's Android Wear. The Smartwatch is equipped with Google's voice recognition service and can perform simple tasks including checking email, sending text messages and carrying out an online search at users' voice command.
The watch comes with a built-in microphone, accelerometer, compass, gyro and GPS sensor technology that make fitness tracking more accurate.
The device cannot make phone calls but can be connected to many of the latest Android-based Smartphones. The watch can be used with any Smartphone running Android 4.3 and above.
Like Sony's first-generation SmartBand, the SmartBand Talk is also a 'life-logging accessory' and not just a fitness tracker and offers additional features.
The wearable sports a built-in microphone and speaker, and comes equipped with a short call function allowing users to answer calls and listen to them via the band. The band comes with HD Voice support.
Through Sony's integrated Voice Control technology, users can also assign different sounds to life bookmarks and use their voice to carry out specific Smartphone operations.
SmartBand Talk features a curved, always-on 1.4-inch E-ink. It displays Lifelog activity, notifications and the time at a glance.
The band's built-in accelerometer and altimeter sensor technology helps the band provide an accurate overview of the users' daily physical activity including walking, running or climbing.
SmartBand Talk and SmartWatch 3 both enable and present lifelogging activity and data on the wrist, and connect to the companion app on an Android Smartphone via Bluetooth and NFC.
