Although Baselworld 2017 officially begins today, the watch and jewelery fair par excellence, but many have been the companies that have taken advantage of the previous days to present their novelties for this year, novelties that arrive in the form of smartwatches. TAG Heuer, Movado, Montblanc, Guess… have already announced their next wearable devices. Now it is the turn of the Japanese firm Casio, who has just presented a new device the Pro Trek Smart WSD-F20S, a new smartwatch that will arrive in a limited number of units to the market and will do so hand in hand with Android Wear.
This device is based on the smartwatch that the company presented at the last CES 2017 held at the beginning of the year in Las Vegas and that has received very bad reviews from the specialized press, the Pro Trek Smart WSD-F20. Both devices share the same characteristics inside. What really varies is its exterior where we find a sapphire crystal and a black case with dark blue elements. This model, despite offering the same design as the company's legendary G-Shock, is aimed not only at athletes, but its focus It is aimed at people looking for a complement for the day to day.
This new model, of which only 500 units will be sold, it will hit the market with a 1,32-inch screen with a 320 × 300 resolution, it is waterproof, it integrates GPS that we can use thanks to the maps that are downloaded to the device, it has an autonomy of just over 1 day of course It will be managed inside by Android Wear At the moment we do not know when it will hit the market, but with such a small number of units it is very unlikely that this model will leave Japan.
