I'm a Jew hole CNET and I'm here taking a look at the Sony SmartWatch 3 now this is a third generation of Sony SmartWatch but this one has a big difference it runs on Android wear that's Google operating system for watches and wearable devices rather than Sony's own take on Android now we've seen Android wear and other devices like the LG G watch is also on the Samsung live watch and it will be on the motorola moto 360 the fact that it uses the same operating system as these other devices means it will be able to use the same apps that are developed for those watches has a 1.6 in screen width of 320 by 320 pixel resolution which should be more than enough to make sense of everything that's going on it's also completely waterproof meaning you don't have to take it off when you're going into the shower unlike the other Android wear smartwatches we've seen the Sony watch can actually remove the watch part from the strap meaning you can simply swap the colors the Sony has popped some of his own Android wear software on board as well including a Walkman app and a camera app that lets you use it as a remote shutter for your phone or even some of Sony's Wi-Fi enabled cameras Sony also reckons what you'll be able to get about two days of battery life from it which is a step up from the one day but you'll get from the LG G watch although we'll have to see how that actually stacks up in our own testing due to go on sale towards the end of the year and Sony reckons it will be about two hundred and twenty nine euros although that will of course depend on whereabouts you live I'm Andrew Hall the C net and this is the Sony SmartWatch 3
