Top Next-gen Smartwatches

Apple watch 2WAREABLE - Jul 8 - The Apple Watch sequel will boast a FaceTime camera, as well as Wi-Fi connectivity enabling it to receive emails, text messages and more while away from your phone.

Lenovo's next version will have a "modified design" and would be "more beautiful and more like a clock". Expect a launch this September.

The ZenWatch 2 comes in two sizes. The displays for both are the same 2.5D curved AMOLED, and the only real design change is the addition of a standby button on the side in the form of a watch dial.

The next Samsung Gear's rotating bezel adds physical controls to the touchscreen setup. It can be used for a number of navigation actions including scrolling, zooming and adjusting levels.

Lenovo Smartwatch, Virtual Keyboard And Smart Shoes

Lenovo magic viewCNET - May 29 - At its Lenovo Tech World conference on Wednesday, the company revealed concepts for 3 new products designed for mobile use.

The Magic View smartwatch would offer 2 screens -- one with a regular view and the second with a virtual display 20 times larger than the standard display. The watch uses optical reflection to create the virtual image, which lets users read a map, view photos or even watch a video.

The Smart Cast virtual keyboard is projected onto a table or other object, giving smartphone users a full-sized keyboard on which to type. The projector can display the content from a smartphone onto a wall or large screen, ideal for giving presentations, watching videos and playing games.

Smart Shoes have the ability to display mood and fitness data directly on small screens embedded into the shoes. The device would be able to track your heart beats and calories consumed as well as display directions to your destination.
