Let’s get this out of the way: while Android is the name of Google’s mobile operating system, it is also the name of a watch company. Headquartered in Florida, Android specializes in making and selling watches, with the company’s latest offering being its first entry into the smartwatch market.

Called the, well, Android SmartWatch, it is compatible with both iPhone and Android devices, but if we’re going by the advertisement above, its target demographic may be women from space. The touch screen is of a TFT variant, with the smartwatch itself able to make and receive calls, read texts, and control your handset’s music. It is also equipped with pedometer, calculator, chronograph, calendar, world clock, and voice memo functionality.

Battery life for the Android SmartWatch is supposedly about 90 hours, or roughly three and a half days of usage. We assume that is for moderate usage, but no mention of what kind of usage needed to achieve that battery life was made.

In the way of customization, the SmartWatch will come in six colors, along with “colorful leather straps.” The wide price range of Android’s watches has us guessing the price point for the SmartWatch.

As with the very original name, though, the SmartWatch runs on proprietary software, which has us admittedly wary of how it operates. No release date or window was given, so we don’t know when we will see it hit the market.

I reviewed 2 of the best Android smartwatches. This is the one I’d buy

After reviewing the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, I decided to swap immediately to the Mobvoi Ticwatch Pro 5. The reason was simple: until the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic came along, the latest Ticwatch was my personal top Android smartwatch and the best performer you could get. I wanted to find out if could retain this title, as I’d really loved wearing the Watch 6 Classic.

The Apple Watch Ultra is the perfect women’s smartwatch — seriously

When Apple showed off the Apple Watch Ultra last September, I was excited to see it. The design alone was unique and a great change of pace from the tried-and-true design of the mainline Apple Watch Series 8. And the Action button was interesting and allowed for new possibilities for using the Apple Watch.

But one thing that was concerning for me, as well as plenty of other people, was the size. The Apple Watch Ultra only comes in one size, which is 49mm. It’s the largest Apple Watch, even beating out the 45mm of the Series 8. How would this 49mm Apple Watch Ultra look on smaller wrists, especially those of women?

Honor’s new Android phone has a feature we’ve never seen before

Honor isn’t happy with Samsung taking all the mid-range smartphone glory with the excellent Galaxy A54. As such, it has launched the Honor 90 to see if it can tempt you away from Samsung's colorful and capable device. The Honor 90 matches the Galaxy A54’s price, but what about its specifications?

Honor has highlighted the screen technology as a reason to buy, and it certainly has something we haven't seen before. It’s a 6.7-inch, 2664 x 1200 pixel resolution OLED with a quad-curve shape, meaning it flows down into the chassis for comfort and style. The panel uses 3840Hz Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) dimming to minimize flicker at low brightness, and it's the first time we've seen this level of PWM dimming on any smartphone. Other phones have 1920Hz or 2160Hz PWM dimming (such as the Realme 11 Pro+) at the most. The technology should also help reduce eye fatigue when using the screen for a long time. The screen has a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ certification, and a peak brightness of 1,600 nits.
