Sony has packed a lot into a body that is just 9mm thick and weighs a mere 122.5 grams (silicon strap included). There are more colourful offerings too should the conservative out-the-box aesthetic not be to taste. With subtle rounding on the corners, its precise lines and a classic finish of black with silver accents, the SmartWatch 2 will look at home on the wrist of any businessman when paired with any of the available straps, be that the included black silicon one or the optional leather or anodised metal offerings Sony has also created. The watch face features a polished, chamfered edge, surrounding a 1.6-inch LCD touch panel, which also accommodates capacitive back, home and menu keys underneath.
The body of the watch itself consists of a metal frame, a characteristic metal sleep/wake key on its right side and a concealed microUSB port on the left, used for charging.
Much like Sony’s latest smartphones, the SmartWatch 2 is a precise balance of form and function, not to mention the fact that it’s DNA is unmistakably Sony. But is it an essential or an unnecessary extra for modern mobile users? Beautiful balancing act Sony has continued to evolve the concept and now brings us its 2013 offering, the Sony SmartWatch 2.
