Misfit’s upcoming smartwatch goes Android Wear 2.0, but its feature set and price sound pretty great.
Since Misfit was acquired by Fossil Group , it’s been easy to overlook the brand’s line of fitness trackers and watches. But Misfit’s crack at an Android Wear smartwatch could end up being one of the better fitness watches, based on its specs.
The Misfit Vapor was announced earlier this year, in a barely working prototype version. But Misfit’s changing tack to make Vapor an Android Wear 2.0 watch, debuting this summer. I guessed this might be a possibility back in January, and it turns out the guess was correct.
The Vapor will be water resistant to 50 meters — rare for Android Wear watches — and will link to Misfit’s own fitness app.
Misfit Vapor’s design looks clean.
