The drumbeat of
rumors for a Facebook smartwatch continues to get louder...
New reports this week speculate it will be an Apple Watch rival, for summer 2022, around US$400 retail, equipped with
two cameras, heartrate tracker, AR control, optimized for light social media, and designed to be a smartphone on the wrist -- much like Huawei's new
HarmonyOS Watch.
We have done a number of consumer
surveys on the potential for a
Facebook smartwatch in the US and elsewhere. We studied interest in such a device
here, and willingness to pay
here.
Is US$400 too
high, or just
right?
