The Omate X has been described to be “more than a Smartwatch, the Omate X is a fashion statement.” It basically intends for the wearer to enjoy the perks of a companion smartwatch, all without having to have it look like an unwieldy device on the side of your wrist. Specially designed to push your notifications from your smartphone over to the Omate X itself via Bluetooth, it will play nice with both iOS and Android-powered smartphones. Notifications that are pushed include incoming calls, social media updates, messages, and reminders, among others.
The 400mAh battery ought to last for a week in action, and underneath the hood lies a MediaTek Aster MT2502 SoC that is powered by an ARM7 processor and has Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE) support. Preorders will kick off on www.omate.com from September 1st to September 30th at $129 a pop, where the first 1,000 preorders will see their Omate X timepieces arrive engraved with an “Early Bird / Limited Edition” serial number.
