market, only half the number show up on the Indian shore. We are listing
top 5 wearables you can buy in India right now.
Pebble Smart
Pebble Smart is a toned down version of
more expensive and metal-clad Pebble Steel which is not available in
India. This one features a 1.26 inch, 168×144 display along with an ARM
Cortex M3 CPU and supports Bluetooth 4.0 LE. The design is also
waterproof so you can go for a swim without worrying. Performance
and battery life are very good. It may not have the sharpest display,
but it would last you several days of heavy usage.

Sony Smart Watch 2
Unlike most smartwatches available in
the market which beg you to connect the device with your phone, Sony
Smart Watch 2 is more like a stand alone smartwatch. However, it can
still be paired up with the Sony Xperia Z2/Z Ultra/Z1 for notifications.
It includes three capacitive buttons underneath the display, which
measures 1.6 inches and has a 220×176 resolution. There’s an array of
app support with more than 300 apps supporting the watch, including
Facebook and Twitter. It’s also dust and water resistant plus it has
that attractive Xperia-like design.

replaceable battery that lasts up to six months. The Shine syncs easily
with its app by placing the metal dot on your phone screen to download
data in seconds. It tracks walking, jogging, running, cycling, and

As its predecessor, the Samsung Galaxy
Gear 2 Neo features 1.63 inch Super AMOLED display, a dust and
water-resistant body and a 2 megapixel camera with auto focus. It is a
toned down version of the original’s futuristic metallic body. A neat
addition is being able to attach your own straps to the Gear 2 Neo.
Tizen OS is in place instead of Android and this helps to extend the
battery life while focusing more on fitness. A heart sensor and
pedometer are included for the same purpose.
