Sonostar Smart Watch Preview
New Pebble Competitor Arrives in Q1 2014
Similar to the Pebble, the $179 Sonostar smart watch has a 1.73-inch E Ink display. This is great, because it offers the same 5-7 day battery life as the Pebble. Unlike the Pebble, however, the Sonostar’s display is also a touchscreen.
Available for pre-order now, the Sonostar works with either Android and iOS devices.
Here’s Sonostar’s teaser video:
