ChatGPT is being incorporated into everything from Discord to Snapchat and virtually every platform in between. While this might be incredibly useful for day-to-day searches and some interactions, you also end up with some interesting implementations, such as ChatGPT on smartwatches. As misplaced as this may sound to some, this type of setup will give quick and easy access to the OpenAI platform, just about anywhere. Launching last week at a price of $3.99 and rocketing to #3 in the ‘utilities’ category, watchGPT is an Apple Watch app that leverages ChatGPU. The app allows purchases to interact with OpenAI’s ChatGPT directly through its API. The developer’s site explains users can get answers to questions, generate long responses without typing, and share any of the AI responses on social media or via text. This enables users to have access to “a vast source of knowledge and communicate with an intelligent computer in real-time,” sort of “like having a personal assistant on your wri...
[unable to retrieve full-text content] Years on from the M600, Polar Electro may be getting back into Wear OS watches Android Police A serious Wear OS running watch could be coming soon Tom's Guide Samsung could soon get fresh competition in the smartwatch arena SamMobile - Samsung news Polar's next watch could run WearOS – and that would be bad news for Apple TechRadar Polar CEO: Trust in wearable fitness data is too low Wareable View Full coverage on Google News
Polar, the Finnish company known for its fitness trackers and other wearables, is looking to re-enter the smartwatch market. This move could spell trouble for Samsung, as it would mean more competition in an already crowded market. Sander Werring, CEO of Polar, recently spoke to Wareable about the company’s future within the industry. Seeming enthused over the recent technological advancements on current wearable platforms, Werring confirmed that Polar was certainly keeping an eye on the Wear OS side of the playground. When asked about the company’s potential return to the smartwatch platform, he responded affirmatively, noting that it is an option worth considering in light of recent developments in the technology sector. Samsung could be in for some fresh competition if Polar returns The Polar M600 was the company’s final Wear OS offering. While it first debuted in 2015, the company has yet to make another appearance in that space. Werring says it’s probably because they were ju...
Samsung is not the first brand that comes to mind when you are out shopping for an object tracker. That kind of consumer trust and appeal is currently commanded by Tile and Apple’s popular AirTag . However, Samsung wants to wiggle its way into that space with yet another object tracker that’s destined to arrive soon. Citing unnamed sources, SamMobile reports that Samsung is planning a refresh of its Galaxy Smart Tag portfolio . And if all things go according to plan, the second-gen object tracker from Samsung will hit the shelves in the third quarter of 2023 — possibly around the same time frame as the launch of Samsung’s upcoming foldable phones. Andrew Martonik/Digital Trends Right now, details are scarce about the upgrades that one could expect from the upcoming Galaxy SmartTags, and we don’t know about any plans for a design rework either. But it would be interesting to see if Samsung manages to boost utilitarian aspects like detection range, add better speakers with a wi...
Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR A new report points to Google shipping almost 900,000 Pixel Watches in Q4 2022. This falls far short of Samsung and Apple’s shipments during the quarter. This is Google’s first watch though, and it’s available in fewer markets than rival devices. Google launched its long-awaited Pixel Watch alongside the Pixel 7 series back in October, offering a circular design and some Google and Fitbit additions. Was it a commercial hit, though? Well, it looks like we’ve finally got some shipment figures. How does that compare to rival brands, then? Canalys noted that Samsung shipped 2.9 million wearables but didn’t dish out figures for specific Galaxy Watch models, such as the new Galaxy Watch 5 series . However, the above chart shows that the Korean brand’s smartwatch shipments still handily beat Google’s watch shipments (which include Fitbit smartwatches as well). This isn’t a surprise at all, as this is Google’s first proper sma...
