What is a hybrid smartwatch?

A "hybrid-smartwatch" is a combination of analogue watches and smart watch features, which means no digital display, only pointers but with features such as step display and notification function. The classic beauty of the watches and the portable technology are combined in an accessory. A real highlight for all watch aficionados who do not want to miss the classic watch art, appreciate a long battery life and think that a watch shouldn’t replace the computer. In addition, a hybrid smartwatch is more subtle than the large Smartwatch model. Incoming messages are only perceived by the watch owner. And, of course, the display does not need to be activated to see the time.

Is the design from a hybrid watch different to a analogue watch?

Filigree watch hands, jewellery, modern or ornate numbers, multi-colored or one-color dials ... the variety of hybrid smart watches is unlimited. As addition there are different bracelets in leather and stainless steel. In terms of design, the hybrid Smartwatch doesn’t stand behind the big names of the analog watch brands. Skagen Connected and Fossil Q are well known brands who show how well technology and classic design match within the hybrid models. Only the buttons on the watch case indicate the additional functions.

What kind of features has a hybrid smartwatch?

Travelers, sports fans and technicians get some great modern features with the hybrid Smartwatch. In addition to the standard functions, such as the reliable display of time, the wake-up and notification function, the hybrids offer a whole repertoire of possibilities. Many functions can be activated via the buttons on the housing of the watch. Several time zones can be displayed, for example, sleep, calorie consumption and steps can be tracked. Some models also have the possibility to activate the camera and music function on the mobile phone.

How to control functions on the phone?

Thanks to an app, the hybrid Smartwatch connects to the smartphone. Functions such as MP3 player and camera can be controlled via Bluetooth with the watch.

How does it draw our attention to news?

Unlike the pure smartwatches, the hybrid models dispense with a digital display. In order to be made aware of incoming messages, the watch emits gentle vibrations, lights up, or the hands move. The highlight: Many models have different alarm signals, whereby different signals can be assigned to different persons. If a message comes in, the watch carrier does not have to look directly at the mobile phone and interrupt a conversation because it can assess whether the call is important or not.
