Casio has put Bluetooth in to a wristwatch. By itself, that's not so sufficient to speak about. But this is the low appetite various of Bluetooth 4, that means that the watch will run for two years on a coin-cell, only similar to any other wristwatch.
The G-Shock Bluetooth looks a lot similar to you'd design - a corpulent cosmetic sports watch, with updated Bluetooth logos. The principal schtick is that the watch will sync its timepiece with your cellphone. Because your phone updates its timepiece with network time, this should meant the watch is always accurate.
You'll moreover obtain notifications of incoming calls, SMS and email, and if you remove your phone you can use the watch to trigger an warning or make it vibrate. This might not be as utilitarian as it sounds, though, as the limit operation of low-energy Bluetooth is only 5 meters, that means you'll still be erratic from room to room to find it.
The greatest problem, though, will be anticipating a Bluetooth 4 phone to span it with. Once these turn more common, though, who wouldn't wish a watch that could do all this and run for two years on a CR2032 battery? The super low power expenditure alone means that Bluetooth notifications only got a entire lot more useful.
The watch should be in stores soon, for an different price.
