From PC Mag: The first smartwatch with Qualcomm's new Snapdragon Wear 3100 chip has arrived.
Montblanc's Summit 2 will start at $995. It features a 1.2-inch AMOLED display, 8GB of storage, and comes in a variety of different shades, including black, stainless steel, and titanium.
The Summit 2 was built with a "vintage" look to give you the feel of a mechanical watch, the company said. The product itself runs Google's Wear OS, but it can connect to either an Android smartphone or an iPhone.
The Summit 2 promises to be the first of many smartwatches designed with the Snapdragon Wear 3100. The new chip, which Qualcomm announced last month, was built specifically to offer long battery life. Montblanc said the Summit 2 can last for a week on one charge when a "time-only" mode is activated. But in normal use, you can expect a full day of battery life.
Compared with last year's model, the Summit 2 offers more storage and RAM, but features a slightly smaller display. Montblanc said it built the watch for people who like to travel. For instance, it comes with a special "Timeshifter" app that'll give you advice on how to minimize jet lag based on your flight plan and sleeping habits. The watch can also help you explore foreign cities you visit through a separate app called "Travel Info," which can provide local tourist information.
