Modular smartwatch concept. The future competition of the Apple Watch?

The Apple Watch was not the first smartwatch on the market. When they presented it, rumors had been circulating about its arrival for a couple of years, but other giants such as Samsung were quick to launch smartwatches so that Apple would not get ahead of them. On the other hand, the Apple Watch is the most complete smartwatch, but that could change if it modular smartwatch concept It will be carried out.

This concept has been created by Futurism and shows us a smart watch with a circular dial in which we can choose which components and sensors we will mount. Each of these pieces would be links of its strap, where we could add a camera, more battery, a heart rate monitor, a fingerprint sensor or a GPS receiver (among other things), the Achilles heel of the Apple Watch and without what we can go out to exercise with total precision, although it does perform certain calculations and is quite reliable.

A modular smartwatch where we choose what we use

For everything else, this modular smartwatch concept, such as smart intelligence That is, it has a microphone, which would allow us to make and receive calls, an accelerometer, low-consumption Bluetooth and a vibrator. Have not they left the Wi-Fi?

What is perhaps more important is at the end, where we see that the clock would be shareable with iOS and Android and would have a price of $ 300. In the end we also see a failure or lack of information: what would we pay for those $ 300? With that price we would have the camera, the GPS, the heart rate monitor and the extra storage or would we have to pay for all this separately? It is clear that the concept is interesting, but it is still a concept.

Rumors say that Apple will launch straps for the Apple Watch with new sensors, so if they do, this concept would lose much of its appeal. Of course, until that moment, we can dream of having all the possibilities in our wrist.
