A new mobile phone watch has been announced for
the UK that undercuts LG’s GD910. The
sWaP Active is described as a "stylish, sporty, ultra lightweight,
touchscreen watch phone" offered SIM-free for use with all the UK’s 2G
networks.
Measuring 240 x 58.4 x 16mm, the Active is water
resistant with a rubber strap and launches with the claim of 100 hours
standby and 180 minutes talk time.
It can connect to any
Bluetooth device and boasts an "ultra sensitive" microphone for hands
free use, takes a 2GB microSD card to store media on and even boasts a
camera for still and video with sound recording,
There’s a
stylus built in the watch strap, to "assist" with dialling and texting
(so we presume the screen is a little small/fiddly) as well as use the
other functions, including a calendar, alarm, calculator, to-do-list and
WAP connection.
Complete with wired stereo headphones, USB data
transfer cable, USB mains charger, USB Bluetooth headset and mini
stylus, the Active watch phone is priced at £299.99 and available now
from Amazon, among others.
