one of the most frustrating problems about today's SmartWatch is is that once their batteries run out they're pretty much useless now what happens if a company approaches things differently and offers you a SmartWatch that you don't need to recharge I'm Jaime better with pocket now here at MWC 2015 in Barcelona and let's talk about cocido Hong kong-based cachito is actually not new to the SmartWatch game and neither are some of their products still we couldn't avoid our geek curiosity and understanding how this company manages to sell you a fashionable SmartWatch that you don't have to recharge starting with the basics this company is very clear in the fact that this is a watch first above everything in a SmartWatch second so fashionable design and materials and even color options are what you see most at their booth you can replace the 22 millimeter watchbands just like you can with every regular watch and it even sports an analog display just like every regular watch as well it's even powered like a regular watch where you don't really have a rechargeable battery pack and it doesn't even include a charging module all you have to replace as a cr2032 battery every six to nine months through a stainless steel coin module at the bottom what makes this a SmartWatch is that it does support bluetooth LE connectivity to any iOS 7 or above device or any Android 4.3 device or above the internal portion of the display is actually a black and white liquid crystal at the top and it also includes icons for mail messaging phone calls calendar and even smart phone low battery notifications at the bottom if you get a phone call the phone icon at the bottom lights up and the SmartWatch will either vibrate or beep depending on your settings and the caller ID is shown at the top display similar functionality works with calendar appointments messaging and others but the secret to keeping a six to nine month battery life is by limiting the amount of information that's transmitted between the watch in your smartphone so what you'll see on the display is fairly limited the display later gives you options for dual time display or just your current time in a digital format the functionality works through an iOS or Android application with a bevy of customizable options from what the buttons on the sides will do to giving you the ability to control your music so even triggering the camera and even finding your smartphone or finding the watch a recent update being demoed here at MWC is their new activity tracking service which is also part of the application and which gives you your step count among other fitness tracking information so yes this definitely is not a pebble nor an Android wear device but for those of you searching for a fashionable watch with added functionality like the Martian notifier that we reviewed recently but in a better way we could say this is actually a very competitive option there are various models already on sale with prices ranging between $200 and 129 depending on the configuration you choose and trust me we can't wait to get a review unit to test everything out because yes six to nine months of no battery recharging has a some peace of mind included for now this is high memory that I will pocket now here at MWC 2015 in Barcelona make sure you follow us on social media subscribe to our YouTube channel as well you can follow me on Twitter Jaime underscore Rivera please give this video a thumbs up if you like what you saw and expect some more videos coming up very soon
