PebbleOS 1.10 supports third-party watch faces, sorts out iOS issues

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="image-container" dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Pebble OS 11 supports thirdparty watch faces, sorts out iOS issues" data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/pebble-smartwatch-review-angle-1365787634.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> Pebble has been on a rapid cadence with smartwatch updates to justify those crowdfunded dollars, and it's not letting up just because watch shipments are well underway. PebbleOS 1.10 has arrived with support for custom watch faces built using the matching SDK. The revamp will be especially helpful for iOS users -- we see several fixes for crashes, permissions and power in store. Everyone gets options to disable backlighting and vibrations in certain conditions, too. As such, there's every reason to fire up the Pebble app for an upgrade, even if it's just for some visual variety.</div></div>

Samsung VP confirms work on a watch, among other future products

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <img alt="Samsung VP 'We've been preparing the watch product for so long'" data-src-height="399" data-src-width="600" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/s911006-cop600y.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">Rumors of a new smart watch are following more than just one particular tech company, and like Apple there have been suggestions Samsung is working on such a product. <em>Bloomberg</em> reports mobile executive VP Lee Young Hee said during an interview that "<span>We are preparing products for the future, and the watch is definitely one of them." As to when, he only indicated it would be important to be the first one to commercialize it so consumers can use one meaningfully -- something samsung should know, since it's built many watch / phone combos over the years. " There's also no word on what a Samsung watch would be like (that's the S9110 touchscreen watchphone from 2009 pictured above) so until hardware is actually unveiled, we'll just have to use our imagination.</span></div></div>

Tokyoflash Kisai OTO watch reacts to sound, combines time read-out with graphic equalizer (video)

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><hr dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" /><div class="image-container" dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Kisai OTO reacts to sound, combines time readout with graphic equalizer " data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/kisaioto-1360571342.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">Working with a concept sent in from a German fan, Tokyoflash's latest watch design bakes in a sound sensor which reacts to ambient noise through an on-wrist graphic equalizer. Naturally, the Kisai OTO also a packs time read-out, splitting hours, minutes and seconds (read vertically) across two lines. Above and below that, you'll find the flickering equalizer, although anyone that finds it a little too distracting during the day can switch them off. You can even go completely the other way and nix the watch display for party hours. There's still the requisite alarm and date settings and you can pick from blue, green red or amber light-up displays. All color options are all paired with a black anodized aluminum strap, while the watch can be charged through USB. It's available to order now, with an introductory two-day sale price of $99 -- and in case you were wondering, OTO means sound in Japanese. Which makes sense. </div></div><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/SP5gQnvqSdg?feature=player_embedded" width="640"></iframe></div>
