hi I'm Scott Stein and how stylish can a SmartWatch possibly be well what I'm wearing on my wrist might be at the top of the heat this is the meta m1 and its aim is to look good now it works with Android and iOS and this SmartWatch is not running Android wear but it does have a very basic set of notifications that soured a little bit like a pebble and the design may kind of look like a diesel watch it may kind of look like a fossil watch but metas partners and founding founding partners actually spun off from the fossil group so that's no accident this design is the main front and center reason to buy one of these it's stainless steel there are a number of leather and rubber strap accessories that you can put on this and you can pick very various colors the price ranges from $250 to $450 so this is not inexpensive but much like the pebble it's got a battery life that's on the higher end more like a four day five day type of battery life its screen is pretty primitive that's the one weak point you're talking about an LCD screen that's high reflective but it doesn't have any touch and it has six buttons here that access a bunch of specialized apps you can get the weather you can get sports scores in the future you will be able to potentially do fitness tracking doing step counting right now it's also got notifications and also calendar connectivity so you can see your calendar info you can see notifications like on a pebble watch and it works pretty easily the app also allows you to filter things with a meta filter to pick which ones you do not want to be spammed on to your watch pretty similar to a pebble so why do you get one of these kind of sounds like a pebble and that's the problem the meta M one is gonna have its own competition laid out there and products not only with Android wear but future stuff down the road from Apple and others to compete with as well but if this ends up in stores with a good enough battery life and designs that are like these maybe they would catch on I'm Scott Steinmetz a look at the meta m1 here on my wrist
