Linus tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by NCI XCOM your source for great technology selection and service along with corsair memory and western digital here we are with the well Oh graph now to be clear guys unlike a lot of the things we're going to be looking at at the show this is not necessarily a SmartWatch it's well it's a Wella graph it's meant to provide you with a picture of your overall health and well-being so it includes the usual watch functionality of course there's a there's a screen you can have different watch faces and stuff like that can have analog digital web no it's obviously it's all digital but don't worry too much about that it does have a sapphire crystal screen covering so I can go ahead and I can take they're doing a demo with some exacto knives where they're scratching it and showing it that it doesn't scratch now what functionality does it actually have on board it has a heart rate monitor an activity tracker and a running watch so I'll show these to you guys one at a time we'll probably just do this in b-roll so first up you can see the heart rate monitor works with a series of green glowing dots on the back I don't know exactly how they work but check this out guys there you go goes like that monitors your heart rate in real time it stores your data for up to four months so what that means is it can give you all kinds of useful data it can tell you about your resting heart rate it can tell you about how you compare to other people your age it can tell you your fitness age and it can even act as a motivator giving you for the activity tracker functionality a little heart that fills up as you do more things that day the pedometer also works in real time so you could literally I mean I dunno X's are Li recommend doing this that you could literally walk down the street and have the pedometer updating you in real time how much you're walking that day in terms of charging this is always a question that i have about these kinds of things micro USB to a base station but other than that you go ahead and throw it on a base station for the night it comes with two different straps so it comes with a nato strap as well as a leather strap so you can decide if you want something that's going to feel a little bit more appropriate at the office or something that's more appropriate for well going out for a run if the you know run watch functionality is going to be something that they're going to advertise about it overall looks pretty stylish of they are asking for three hundred and twenty dollars for at those so there's going to be a lot of competition in terms of wellness monitoring as well as smart watches over this year and I'm definitely excited to see how this one fares when it comes out sometime around april of 2014 guys don't miss any of our CES 2014 coverage remember our trip to the show this year sponsored by NCIX your source for great technology selection and service poor Sarah as well as Western Digital
