$8.99 smartwatch makes phone calls, tracks both your sleep and heart rate

The display weighs in at 1.22-inches and carries a round 240 x 240 resolution. There is a 1.3MP front-facing camera and a stainless steel surface. If you’re wondering where the catch is, the first issue is that the watch supports 2G internet speeds and nothing faster. Even Gearbest, which is selling the device, notes that any function that requires internet service might not be easy to use. Some features won’t work with an iPhone but the watch is said to be compatible with all iOS and Android handsets.
The device will measure your steps, calculate the number of calories you’ve consumed, track your sleeping, remind you to move if you’ve been sitting still too long, and allow you to set an alarm. There is also a heart rate monitor on board.
With the 2G internet support, we can’t say that the watch is worth its price even if that price is only $8.99 (plus $4.50 shipping). But if you have an interest in finding out, or want to give it to someone as a birthday gift, keep in mind that it might not be until March before it arrives at your door.
