Makibes is using its
LCD know how to create a range of smartwatches for users from all walks of
life.
The Makibes smartwatch range consists of quite a
collection of wearables ranging from basic sports trackers from just US$ 19.99 all
the way to the rather elegant Makibes Talk T1 watch complete with Android 5.1
based OS for US$ 99.99.
The Mabibes T1 is quite a feature packed wearable
boasting the same Mediatek MT6580 chipset and 3G data connection found in some
entry-level Android smartphones. The Talk T1 also gets 512mb RAM, 8GB memory,
GPS, heart rate monitor and 1.39in AMOLED display. In fact, the T1 looks to be
the closest we’ve seen to an Android Wear watch from a Chinese vendor so far.
Users can customise the Talk T1 with over 70 live
watch faces, plus a range of stylish straps are available to fit on the svelte
stainless steel body. The OS, is based on Android 5.1 comes with Google Play
and even Google Now support meaning that this is one of the few Chinese
wearables that can use Google Now voice functions without the being tethered to
a smartphone.
A Nano sim slot allows the T1 to connect to WCDMA 3G
networks and there’s even WIFI built-in for those times you have access to a
network.
