The Apple Watch Can Now Take Selfies
The art of a #selfie just got easier.
The Apple Watch can do a lot of things, but now thanks to a new band created by Glide, the wristwatch can now help you to take selfies. Glide, the makers of a video chat app for iPhone, just launched CMRA, a new Apple Watch band equipped with two cameras, a front-facing 8-megapixel camera, and a self-facing 2-megapixel camera. Both cameras capture HD photos and video, which can be saved to the band’s 8GB of embedded storage. The band also has its own shutter button for photos also allowing you to sync up content with your iPhone, as well as share photos and videos to Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.
The CMRA band comes in four colors, and has a rubberized design that looks like a thicker version of Apple’s elastomer sport band. It doesn’t ship until spring 2017, but the early-order price is $149 USD which will then rise to $249 USD later on. The band also comes with a charging dock but you’ll need to supply your own Apple Watch charge cable. Take a look at the video above for more details.
