The smart sportwatch, designed to promote Hands Freedom�, connects seamlessly with iPhone 4s via Dual-Mode Bluetooth 4.0, and with Androids via Bluetooth 2.1 (SPP). It discreetly provides wearers with real-time updates on calls, texts, workout data, email, social media activity, calendar events, weather, and more, allowing them to stay connected even in situations where using a phone would be inconvenient or inappropriate. Constructed with a durable double injection molded PU body and strap, the Strata is equipped with a tough PC poly case and mineral hardened glass lenses with anti-glare coatings. It also features titanium finished, stainless steel rings for added durability. With a rechargeable battery offering 5 to 7 days of use per charge, the watch is water resistant up to 5 ATM, making it suitable for wet and sweat-based activities. Pioneered by the MetaWatch core team, consisting of former Fossil Watches members Bill Geiser, David Rosales, Mu Yang, and Siqi Hao, the Strata smart sportwatch is now available for direct purchase following its successful crowdfunding campaign. In conclusion, the Strata watch by MetaWatch offers a convenient and stylish solution for staying connected on the go, with a range of features and customizable options to suit individual preferences.
