Exciting News: Two New HMD Android Smartwatches on the Horizon!
The smartwatch market is about to get a whole lot more interesting! According to recent leaks, HMD, the company behind Nokia-branded phones, is working on not one, but two brand new smartwatches. And the best part? Both of these wearables will be running on Google’s Wear OS, with one of them boasting a 2MP camera. Let’s dive into the details and explore what these upcoming smartwatches have to offer.
What We Know So Far
Thanks to tipster @smashx_60, we have some juicy information about the two upcoming HMD smartwatches. Here are the key features:
- HMD Rubber 1:
- 1.85-inch OLED screen
- 400 mAh battery
- Heart rate and SpO2 tracking
- 2-megapixel camera
- HMD Rubber 1S:
- 1.07-inch OLED display
- 290 mAh battery
- Heart rate and SpO2 tracking (no camera)
A Camera on a Smartwatch?
The inclusion of a 2MP camera on the HMD Rubber 1 is a game-changer. This feature is unprecedented in the Wear OS world, and we can’t wait to see how it will be implemented. Will it allow users to take photos and videos directly from their wrist, with or without a connected phone? The possibilities are endless, and we’re excited to find out more.
For Adults or Kids?
There’s speculation that these smartwatches might be designed with kids in mind, similar to the Samsung Galaxy Watch for Kids that launched earlier this year. While this is purely speculative, it’s an interesting idea. The smaller size and more basic features of the HMD Rubber 1S could make it an attractive option for younger users. On the other hand, the HMD Rubber 1, with its larger screen and camera, might appeal more to adults looking for a feature-rich smartwatch.
Robust Waterproofing
Both smartwatches will come with 5 ATM waterproofing, which means they can withstand depths of up to 50 meters. This suggests that HMD has designed these wearables with a robust casing that will protect the internal components from water and dust.
The Waiting Game
While we’re excited about these upcoming smartwatches, we’ll have to wait and see what HMD has in store. As of now, there’s no official word from the company, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed for an announcement soon. In the meantime, we’re also eagerly awaiting the arrival of Wear OS 6, which is expected to land in the next month or two.
