The wearables market experienced a somewhat shaky start with adoption rates wavering amidst consumers, so brands are responding with new designs like the Emporio Armani Connected watches. Rather than being a dedicated smartwatch, the watches in the Emporio Armani Connected collection are designed as timepieces with connected features. This enables the timepieces to maintain a high-end watch design that's connected to a user's smartphone to maintain several functions and features.
Compatible with both Android and iOS devices, the Emporio Armani Connected watches automatically update to the correct time depending on where you are in the world. They require no charging and can even be used as a remote shutter button to snap pictures from afar. Notifications are displayed discreetly to ensure that the wearer's wrist doesn't call attention to itself in a meeting.
