Control Your SmartPhone By Your ‘I’m Watch’

I’m Watch is the new wrist watch to hit the market that doesn’t just allow you to interact with itself but also allows you to interact with your smartphone.  Blue Sky, an Italian based company behind i’M, have developed the worlds first touchscreen wristwatch that connects to your device via Bluetooth.  It allows you to make and receive calls, text messages, emails, it also allows you to surf the web and check out your photos and contacts.  The i’M Watch has a standby time of 2 days and a usage time of 12 hours, not bad for a tiny watch.  It also comes with the infamous ‘curved’ glass, that was supposedly coming on Apple’s mythical iPhone 5.  There are a variety of colors and materials to choose from, but there is one catch in that The i’M watch comes with quite a heft price tag.

There are three product lines that i’M produce; i’M Color; i’M Tech; and i’M Jewel.

i’M Color:

The cheapest line, priced at €299 (Euros), the original 1.55” sapphire glass, touch-screen is curved, encased in its aluminum, light body.  Only 70 grams of weight, with a variety of functions: incoming calls by name and number, calling by address book, text message previews, emails, music, stock market data, agenda notifications.  It comes in  White, Pink, Light Blue, Red, Yellow, Green or Black. All are priced at €249.

i’M Tech:

i’M Tech is a light weight version of the watch.  It comes in white/black titanium or red/yellow carbonium both with rubber straps to match the colour scheme.  The titanium version costs €499, where as the carbonium version (super light weight) costs €999.

i’M Jewel:

Now if you thought the prices where already too steep, then how about this.  If you’ve got a bit of spare cash lying around then how about getting yourself a diamond encrusted, pink gold plated i’M Jewel Watch?  Or how about a yellow gold plated one?  The i’M Jewel range allows you a selection of one of four designs, all gold plated (in pink, black, yellow and white), starting at a price of……  wait for it……  €9999!!!  If you want the white gold and diamond one then you’re going to have to fork out €11,999!
