Smart Watch - A Sensible and Informative Watch

Smart watches are a new phenomenon that has generated a keen interest in the latest tech community. The present-day smartwatches are becoming the most popular device among the Smartphone users. In reality, a smart watch is said to act as an interface between the user and their Smartphone. It is a wireless connected device, which can receive and send data from your Smartphone via Bluetooth. Although the ultimate use of this device is to display time, it can also display Smartphone notifications such as posts, e-mails, and messages to the social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. With revolution in technology, a surprising trend in the present generation has been the evolution of the smartwatches. In other words, it is a device that provides more or less, the same functions as your Smartphone.
One of the main reasons behind the popularity and demand of the smartwatches is laziness, as though taking a phone from your purse or pocket is too much an effort when compared to reading a message from your watch. But, with today’s ongoing businesses and the prevalence of the social media, checking the notifications can happen several times a day. Due to this frequency of notifications, checking your phone always will be cumbersome when compared to just having a glance on your smart watch, and the most of the users have realized this.
The wearable nature of this device also allows it to be used as a golf swing analyzer and a fitness tracker, which is a good advantage for golfers and sports enthusiasts respectively. The Smart watches are said to control Smartphones to play music, which is a great advantage when you are on the run (such as walking, running, etc.). A smart watch is considered to be perfect if the following components mentioned below are efficient and durable.
Design
The design of a smart watch consists of (1) Watch body: The watch body should be of an appropriate size and designed in such a way that it can be worn with formal or casual attire. (2) Watch face: The watch face (display) should match your dressing needs and can be changed by just pressing a button. (3) Watch strap: The watch strap should be chic, classy, and blend with both formal and casual wears.
Functionality
Apart from just being a stylish accessory, a perfect smartwatch should be able to perform its functions extremely well. A touch screen adds to the efficiency as well as the usability of the watch when compared to pressing the buttons. Notifications are very important for the users; therefore, it must be informative and accessible. Only the appropriate and useful information must be available on the watch face without being too cluttered.
Battery life
The smart watch can function only when it is properly charged, therefore, a durable battery life is very crucial. It will be an utmost waste if your smart watch can be used only for a day or less. The apps embedded in this device should know when to shut down, else the power consumption will be more decreasing the battery life. A power-saving mode is essential to increase the usability of the watch before a recharge can be done.
Durability
A smartwatch must be harder than a Smartphone as it is subjected to frequent abuse when compared to a phone. The watch body should withstand few hits and knocks and not have scratch marks on it; therefore, a very durable material such as a combination of stainless steel and strengthened glass is apt for the body of the watch.
The features and apps of the smart watches have appealed to the majority of the people, thereby making it a big market in the techno gadgets very soon.

Kreyos Meteor smartwatch attempts to one-up the Pebble

What does it take to make a great smartwatch? The Kreyos Meteor is an effort to at least outdo the Pebble. Based on features, I'm inclined to agree it does...but is that enough?
I got a chance to see and hold the Kreyos Meteor, a smartwatch that's seeking early-adopter funding on Indiegogo right now. The watch, which comes out this fall, works with iOS, Android, and even Windows Phone 8 devices -- or, if you wish, syncing via Mac or Windows. And, based on the site and the Kreyos Meteor's design, it's clearly aiming at being a Pebble-beater, specifically.

Hands-on with the Kreyos Meteor smartwatch (photos)

What I mean by that is that the Kreyos is also a black-and-white watch (also with a 144x168-pixel screen), and like the Pebble it lacks a touch screen. It has a variety of customizable watch faces, and can receive notifications over Bluetooth, like texts and phone calls. It's waterproof, too, just like the Pebble. The Kreyos costs $169, compared with $150 for the Pebble.

But the Kreyos can also receive and make actual phone calls or tap into Siri or Google Now via an integrated speakerphone, just like the Martian Passport Watch. And it has its own integrated pedometer and cycling fitness apps, like a Fitbit or Basis Band -- something that, oddly, watches like the Pebble lack (although the Pebble does integrate with RunKeeper).
The laundry list of features and specs is titanic: the Kreyos Meteor has Bluetooth 4.0, 2.1+EDR, and even ANT+ support for cross-compatibility with external wearable health devices; a six-axis accelerometer plus gyrometer (for future apps like one that promises to measure and track your golf swing), a backlight, 5-meter-plus water resistance, a speakerphone and microphone, Siri and Voice Control support, cloud storage for fitness and other data, app-programmable gesture control (for when you raise your hand or twist your wrist, for instance), and swappable accessories.

You don't even have to use the Kreyos Meteor like a watch at all. It's actually a self-sufficient little puck that pops in and out of a variety of bright-colored watchbands, or lanyards, or rubber clips. It could be a sports device without ever gracing your wrist.
It all sounds exciting for those who fantasize about an all-in-one wearable magic device, but the prerelease version I got to see shows that the Kreyos watch is bulkier-feeling than the Pebble, with a blockier design. It's not actually that much bigger, but it lacks the curved lines and wrist-hugging design. Its four side buttons cycle through features much like on the Pebble.
The Meteor needs a separate plug-in USB cradle to sync with a PC. At least it can do that: it can sync via mobile device or Mac/Windows for those who don't own current smartwatches, while the Pebble stays strictly to mobile syncing with Android and iOS via Bluetooth.
The Kreyos is available for preorder on Indiegogo right now, where an early order currently gets you one for $129. Otherwise, the Kreyos will cost $169 when it debuts, which is currently targeted for November.

Enter the Next Generation with the Smart Watch of Kreyos

Per a recent email suggestion from a fellow backer of Kreyos, she suggested we tweak the Influencer Referral Program to a graded incentive scale as opposed to all-or-nothing. After a few emails discussing the idea, we have come up with the following structure:

• 2 Referrals to Pledge: An additional Kreyos Smartwatch Charger
• 3 Referrals to Pledge: Two Kreyos Accessories in Any Color. Choose from Watchband, BeltClip or the LanYard.
• 5 Referrals to Pledge: Get your Kreyos Smartwatch for Free + Additional Watchband + Additional Charger. (See below for payment options)
• 10 Referrals to Pledge: Get your Kreyos Smartwatch for Free + Belt Clip Accessory + Lanyard Accessory + Additional Watchband + Additional Charger

For full details on how the referral program works, how to get your Unique URL and how to check your progress, please see below. We cannot pay on all 3 levels combined. For instance, when you reach 5 referrals you will get only the watch, not the accessory pack and charger.

Fair enough? Refer 2, 3, 5 or 10 people; you get the reward stated above...

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY INFLUENCER REFERRAL PROGRAM

Many have expressed interest in participating in our Influencer Referral Program without purchasing a watch. By popular demand, you spoke, we listened.

If you would like to participate in the Influencer Referral Program to get a free watch, we have opened the program to everyone. In short, simply refer 5 people to purchase a Kreyos Meteor and we will send you one for FREE.

If you have not yet pledged and would like to be on the backer influencer referral program, please visit: www.kreyo.com

Fair enough? Refer 5 people, we will give you a FREE Kreyos...

How It Works:

The way the technology works is that if you (say Fan A) clicks on one of the Share Tools (let's say the Twitter button on the main home screen for Kreyos), then Fan A (you) will be directed to Twitter with a pre-populated message that includes a link to the Kreyos IndieGoGo page:


*This is our Unique ID, yours should be different. The number on the end
**The short link under the video on our main page is your Unique ID. Save it, copy it, etc.

As long as Fan A (you) is logged into an IndieGoGo account when they use any of the Share Tools, the link will also include a special ID (unique to you) that ties the tweet to Fan A. Then when someone (say Person B) who is reading Fan A's tweets clicks on the link in Fan A's tweet about your campaign, a few things will happen:

1. Person B is taken to the Kreyos campaign page and a "View" is registered on your Analytics tab in the Summary section.
2. A "Referral" is registered in our Analytics for you. The "Referral" is attributed to Fan A (you) in our analytics.
3. If Person B (your friend) ends up pledging for a Kreyos Meteor Smartwatch, then Fan A (you) will be accredited as bringing in Person B (your friend, fan or follower) as a pledge.

At the end of the Kreyos Meteor campaign, we will then compose a listing of all of those who have referred 5 people to pledge for a Kreyos and send them a credit for their smartwatch.

Fair enough? Refer 2, 3 or 5 people, you get the reward stated above...

*Keep in mind the people who you refer that buy are delayed by about 1 day due to bank. So it is not immediate on the analytics of who buys.

How To Track Your Referrals

1. Log onto IndieGoGo.
2. Click on your user name beside the Search Box at the top right of the page.
3. Select “My Profile” option to open the profile window.

Then click on the tab that says "My Impact". That’s it. There you will see the latest totals of your referrals and contributions. Contributions being those who pledged by your referral.

How To Boost Your Referral Totals



It is possible to boost your referrals and contributions by sharing the personal url mentioned above in the How It Works section. A few ideas include:

• Post to your personal social media

• Post to the Reddit, BuzzFeed, or similar sites.

PS- No one but you know this is your personal link! Get creative!!!

How We Will Compensate You For FREE

Upon successful ending of our campaign, we will derive a list of all of those who have successfully referred 5 people to pledge for a Kreyos Meteor. Those who have successfully referred 5 people and pledged for their own Kreyos will be credited in either of the following ways (your choice):
