This new wrist-worn keeps the capability of beating all luxury smartwatches including Apple Watch with its competence.
A team of very talented people has made this smartwatch so; the Olio smartwatch would be more compelling and enticing in all manner for sure. The main motive of the tech start-up is to defend you from the notification stuff. Well, ditching the concept of all wearables which are just a replacement of smartphone on wrist.

Let’s talk about some specs and features of this ritzy smart timepiece. A custom operating system and built-in assistant not only keeps you update with calendar, weather and the location, but also understands your habits and preferences. So, this sense of understanding will make the Olio to think about where you are and what you are doing to make suggestions. For example, if you are just going to enter in a meeting, then it will ask to silent all the notifications for that time duration of meeting.
Categorizing alerts in two parts, the developers of Olio allow you to check what you have missed and what will be happening for rest of the day. You can also allow you to receive calls and read messages and will also give you the option of remind you later for the same. Swipe to left on the watchface will lead you to what’s happening in future, and swipe right will take you to the past stuffs, you have missed. You can also prioritize the notifications to be appear and not to be appear.
Controlling the home products like lights, garage doors, thermostats, speakers and many others can be done via Olio Smartwatch. It acts like a hub for all such products. With the capacity of go for two to four days in single charge, calling this timepiece a powerhouse wouldn’t be wrong in anyway.
Not only the features are unique in this wearable, but the design also marks a different impression in tech world. 316L stainless steel is used to manufacture this smart wearable which comes in silver and black color models. Front and back is built-up from strengthened glass. No option or port on the watch as it supports wireless charging.
It water resistant feature makes it rugged in nature with capability of handling soaks in water and dust. The touchscreen is awesome that can work smoothly even you are wearing gloves in hands. However, the gadget is adorned with an odd screen which is not circular tee-totally. It seems like circular screen has cut from the top. Like Apple Watch,the San Francisco startup is also bringing their smartwatch in limited number initially. Preorder for the wrist-worn begun already. Olio Steel Collection and Black Collection will grab $595 and $745 respectively, which is not a big penny to spend for this smartwatch, having two models with variety of straps.
