Dubai, UAE April 13th, 2015 – It looks like a watch and feels like a watch but it’s much smarter than that. ALCATEL ONETOUCH introduces the SMART WATCH that puts a premium on elegant design at a very accessible price. In launching the SMART WATCH, ALCATEL ONETOUCH is not content just to make the latest connected technology available to the greatest number of consumers. Offering the SMART WATCH at a fraction of the cost of competitors, the smartphone brand has implemented its design expertise to offer a series of fine finishes that meet the demands of those looking for the same look and feel as a traditional watch.

“Our emphasis has been on delivering incredibly wearable design, with an aesthetic quality that integrates perfectly with everyday life, all at the right price point. The SMART WATCH’s design has won a number of awards with premium quality that doesn’t break the bank. We’ve kept things fashion forward while also delivering on innovative features. The UI has been carefully honed and retooled so users in the Middle East can intuitively take the SMART WATCH’s multifunctional ability to work, gym, and even to sleep,” said Head of Middle East Zied Merichko.

Available in a sporty black and red along with all-white and all-metallic options, the SMART WATCH has been feted with a slew of design awards, including Reviewed.com’s Editors’ Choice Best of CES, Stuff Magazine’s Wearable Tech Award and Top Pick of CES from Tom’s Guide. 

Available in several styles — sporty dark red/volcano black, feminine all-white, classic chrome/dark gray and elegant metal-white — the ALCATEL ONETOUCH SMART WATCH employs materials such as brushed chrome, micro-textured resin bands and white stainless steel. This choice of finishes assures that it will appeal to both men and women, demonstrating ALCATEL ONETOUCH's dedication to bringing to the market products that fulfill everyone’s needs. 

While offering choice and style, the SMART WATCH also offers multiple fitness functions and connects to Android and iOS smartphones via Bluetooth.

Monitors User Activity
The SMART WATCH is packed with sensors: the heart-rate monitor is embedded discretely on the underside of the watch face; there’s also an accelerometer, gyroscope, altimeter and e-compass. 

The SMART WATCH also allows users to track their sleep cycle, distance covered, steps taken and calories burned. To monitor their fitness goals, users can access the activity overview that the WATCH offers.

Multimedia Remote Control and Phone Notifications
When the smartwatch is connected to a smartphone, it sends users call notifications; social media updates and vibrates if users stray too far from their phones.

Touching the SMART WATCH’s screen activates a multimedia remote control. Users can control music, take pictures from their phone from a distance or make their phone ring in order to locate it.

Simplicity of Use Is Built In
The SMART WATCH is compatible with a number of ALCATEL ONETOUCH smartphones in the HERO, IDOL and POP series, as well as with any phone running on Android 4.3 or above and on iOS 7 or above. It is dust and water-resistant, with a long battery life.
    
Speaking of the battery, the SMART WATCH has a clever USB charger integrated into its band for simplicity of use. With beauty and functionality integrated into one device, ALCATEL ONETOUCH offers a smartwatch at a smart price, fulfilling its mission of making the latest technology available to all.

It will be available in the market on mid-May.
