Review Of The New Sony Smartwatch: Currently The Best Android Wear

10:49 PM anna harris No comments

It feels much longer, but it’s been less than 6 months since Android Wear hit the market. They have stealthily crept into use without much fuss, despite revolutionizing the wearables market.

Reducing the time spent interacting with your phone, but still mining all of that lovely data for Google. The launch devices were pretty average, the Moto 360 wasn’t for everyone despite its anticipation. So now its time to see, perhaps one of the more experienced smart watch maker, Sony take on Android wear. The Sony Smartwatch 3 review is straight ahead.

Despite claiming they had no intention of making a watch for Android Wear, they have followed up two generations of Sony Smartwatch running their own OS, with a third – this time running Android Wear.

The imaginatively titled ‘Sony Smartwatch 3’ has the same rugged lifestyle proof ratings that their phones do. Each Android watch has been water resistant, but the SM3 sports an IP68 rating mean you can submerge it in water for up to 30 minutes, should you feel the need.

Choose any color band you like, but they all are made of the same high quality rubber, with a matte finish. Matched with a clasp similar to that of a normal fashion watch, you have the making of foolproof comfy fitting. Unfortunately this is the sole area that lets the Smartwatch 3 down, and does it quite badly.

The screen is the same 1.6 inches we have seen before, with a new ‘Transflective Display’ providing the 320×320 display. This fancy technology means that while the screen isn’t as vibrant and colorful as that seen on the Moto 360, you can see it clear and accurately in even the brightest of sunlight.

A fantastic improvement to what was the biggest gripe of the first wave of Android Wear watches.

Galaxy Note 4 Out-casts Other Competing Devices

Thanks to the enhanced sensitivity – of the S-Pen, it feels just like a normal pen on paper while you take notes. No need to copy and paste the texts or images one at a time; handle them all at once.

Another unique feature is the camera, The Front-facing camera has a wide angle – an improvement of 77 degrees (predecessor) to 90 degrees – to fit more into the photo composition.

As smartphones and data become more affordable we will see a decline in feature phones as more consumers embrace a “connected lifestyle”.

Touch has become the de facto standard … for those that still prefer a keyboard there is the option of a “virtual version” or a physical accessory.
