Pebble Steel has a Great Gift for our Dads

Smartwatches can be kind of nifty and it’s something that my father is absolutely fascinated with. The Pebble Steel would be the perfect smartwatch for him because it looks just like a regular watch but would easily be able to sync with his phone to display messages among other things.

This is a great promotional move for them being that they are going to have some competition on the way from LG and moto, not to mention Samsung Galaxy Gear is out there as well.

The Steel will be offered in two colors, stainless and a black matte, on June 15. You can find this deal at your local Best Buy

Way to be ahead of the curve Pebble and an early Happy Father’s Day to all.

MWC First Look: Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit

MWC First Looks: Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit.

Wearable tech is really going to take off this year. Last year we so the Galaxy Gear burst onto the scene and though it didn’t get quite the reception it was looking for, it did make us all sit down and seriously contemplate the future of wearable tech. Mobile World Congress is one of the biggest tech shows of the year, and what better place to show off the next in a line of devices bound for glory.

Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit

Fitness bands are really growing in popularity, at CES 2014 we saw a slew of them show up and show out. The LG Lifebands, The Razer Nabu, and the Fit bit Force all made huge splashes at CES this year. Now Samsung is jumping into the ring with the Gear Fit.

The Gear Fit features a curved AMOLED display and also a heart rate monitor. The device will sync with Samsung’s S health application and other 3^rd party fitness tracking apps, while simultaneously syncing with the S5 for control of music answering calls and receiving other notifications from your phone.

This is probably my favorite device to come out from Samsung at MWC. I’m starting to get on the fitness band train and I can’t definitely see their usefulness since I’ve started working out more. Hopefully when I can get the device and use 3^rd party software to integrate it with my Moto X but that’s doubtful and probably a long way off. Still, mad props to Samsung for that little trinket.
