Nubia has launched the Nubia Watch under
crowdfunding on Kickstarter. The smartwatch was first launched in China back in
July with an interesting specs and design. The watch carries a starting price
of US$ 179.
The Nubia Watch features a 4.01-inch super
flexible AMOLED screen which tends to wrap around the wrist. The dial is made
from a lightweight aluminium alloy manufactured using nano-injection process
while it uses biomedical-grade ceramics on the side. The overall lightweight
design makes it lighter to wear.
The extension of the screen is a 316L
stainless steel watch section which the company claims have gone through more
than 30 processes, taking into account the aesthetics and structural strength.
It comes standard with a soft and skin-friendly silicone strap. There is also a
Napa leather strap made of imported Italian calfskin, with a silky surface and
a delicate touch. This strap is a free add-on for all the perks.
In terms of functions, Nubia Watch
supports eSIM independent call functions of China Mobile and China Unicom, and
Alipay mobile payment. It features an array of sports and health monitoring
functions, as well as weather reminders, find my phone function, compass,
schedule reminders and many other functions. The watch also supports Wake-up
gesture which wakes up the screen when the user raises his wrist. Nubia Watch
also comes with a variety of watch face themes.
The watch is available for support on
Kickstarter and will start shipping to backers in October. The watch is
