Apple iwatch

This is the time to talk about iwatch.
                    At this year end a new i device is getting added to Apple's "i" catalog., much more interesting is the rising competition amongst tech giants in wearable technology.Along with Google's long known Google glass Samsung has announced that they are in making of a smart watch,the competition is rising."Also Tim Cook's comment that "hand is the best place for wearable tech than head" say's apple's intentions on iwatch.

Any way competition is so intense also notable thing here is Samsung's bendable youm display this kind of display is more realistic for wearable tech which should be hard enough for daily usage.

So now let's get on to what we can expect from iwatch.

 Is the screen bendable..... We want to have bendable screens in our watches they are stronger than normal screens they can resist scratches with out any gorilla glass thing which I don't like.And they are really bendable which is so exciting.Also for a watch clearly amoled is the winner if you want color screens which consumes less battery which is so important for a watch.
 Sensor's........................................ These are the real things that makes a smart watch so smart so,what we can expect a GPS , Gyro , Accelerometer , Magnetometer what else may be a sensor to calculate the circumference of wrist so it cam adjust the screen along.May be a Heartbeat sensor and thermometer there is a possibility for a humidity sensor too.
 Applications.............................. Is the watch smart by it self or is just dumb enough only to push notifications from a mobile phone.Does it have it own applications or it just mirrors the mobile phone's display.Any way mirroring requires WiFi or Bluetooth which drinks all the juice in just a few hours.
 Water and dust proof......... It should be at least water proof for up to 30 meters i cant call something a watch if it isn't water proof .There are many watches available for a few bucks that are waterproof iwatch would surely cost few hundred bucks waterproof will be the least expected feature from it.
 Battery life.................................You just can't call something a watch if it can't last for at least a month customers don't want to charge their watch daily.Searching for a charging point to charge your watch is just so stupid.

Let us think realistically what we can do on a smart watch.

We can see time.....................................................Check

We can see missed calls..........................................Check

 See messages..........................................................Check

Write messages........................................................May be not

Dictate messages.....................................................Yes

Check heartbeat......................................................Check

Check temperature..................................................Check

Record voice ..........................................................Check

Camera & Video......................................................I am not James bond

Mini missiles.............................................................I am not James bond

Park and Retrieve car...............................................May be yes

Place a call...............................................................Looks awkward but I am ready to accept change.

Holographic content..................................................It's future but reserve it to Hollywood for now.



But I believe that something that is a duo of watch and a smart phone is the future.

         Some thing that looks like slap band
     

         A phone you can use and slap it to wrist like a slap band is truly the future.


Please comment what you want from a smart watch.
