Advertisement, Against all odds, you might feel cool wearing the Sony SmartWatch. Is $150 too much to spend to feel cool? The facade is pure Sony classicism—a silver bezel, deep black screen, and that emblematic Sony logo. In this context, the logo is the
Advertisement, The Sony SmartWatch works horribly. It could be said that it doesn't work well—in fact, let's go further: the Sony SmartWatch often doesn't work at all. The touchscreen is catatonic, the OLED display is dark, muddy, and laughably low-res. N
No. Absolutely not. No one should own this, no matter their lifestyle preferences or moral views. I promise you—you wont like it. The Sony SmartWatch is pathetic, frustrating, and empty. Theres no way to justify spending $150 on this—this ripoff of a th...

Great looks, not too thick, Elegant in its simplicity, It vibrates when alerts, calls, texts, or other notifications are received, Comes with a black watchband and an adapter to use on any watchband. Colorful watchbands are also available from Sony, Batte
By far the top negative thing about the watch for me is the spotty Bluetooth connectivity. Keep in mind that I have only tested this on my HTC Evo 3D and it may work much more solidly on other devices. I've read other reviews that mention it's solid on th
Well, with everything I've had to say about the Sony SmartWatch, you might think it's not very smart at all. To a degree, I would agree with you. There's really no smarts on the watch itself. All the heavy lifting is done by your phone. And with the occas...
Abstract: Smartwatches have never quite caught on with consumers, and yet they continue to fascinate we on the fringes of Geek Chic. Dating back to the days of Casio's calculator and Data Bank models, the novelty of packing computing power on our wrists has held so...

Small, sleek design, Shows useful information at a glance, Facebook and Twitter integration
Limited number of apps, Hard to read outside, Only works with Android phones
The Bluetooth-connected Sony SmartWatch puts information from your smartphone always at arm's reach, but it's not as versatile as we'd like.
Compared to its predecessor, the Sony SmartWatch is a vast improvement: for a start it can keep hold of a Bluetooth connection. Still, what worth it brings to most users remains questionable. If you regularly field calls and receive – but don’t need t...

Software is overly complex to set up, No guarantee of future compatibility, Apps are of limited use, Initially confusing, Expensive
