Smartwatches haven’t taken off as many manufacturers had hoped, and that is probably due to one big issue — they largely duplicate smartphone functionality while also needing the phone to properly function. In other words, spending money so you don’t have to pull your smartphone from your pocket isn’t exactly a smart investment. For fitness, however, wearables have definitely found a market.
Luckily, smartwatches with integrated 4G LTE — so you do not need to carry a smartphone — may save the day, and Verizon has an attractive model on the way. The previously announced «Wear24» Android 2.0 smartwatch finally has official pricing and a release date, and you won’t have to wait too long to buy it. You can use it to make and receive calls or listen to music without needing your phone nearby.
