Meizu Mix
Meizu just announced its first
smartwatch, sort of - it's getting crowd-funding site Taobao. The Meizu Mix is
more of an activity tracker variety, it has a traditional analog face (not a
digital display), but it incorporates some smart features.
The watch has a notification LED and can
also vibrate for new events. It connects to your smartwatch over Bluetooth LE
(you'll need Meizu's app installed) and its 270 mAh battery will last 240 days.
The Meizu Mix apparently has a Swiss
movement built into a 42mm 316L steel case and a Sapphire glass. The case is
available in Black and Silver and is waterproof up to 30 metres. For the strap, you
have three options - Denim, Leather and Steel. These cost CNY 1,000, CNY 1,300
and CNY CNY 1,500 respectively.
The Mix should launch in October if all
goes well. Note that even the Denim version is around US$ 150 and for that kind of
cash you can have a Withings Activite Steel.
