Tech Tools: Blocks smartwatch

Speaking of smart watches, here’s something to consider. Blocks claims to be the world’s first modular smartwatch, allowing you to build a smartwatch that is customised for your needs. You start with the core, which has phone notifications, activity tracking, voice control, a touch screen and the usual bluetooth and wifi connections. From there, you can add modules that bring a heart rate monitor, contactless payments, kinetic charging, even an extra battery. There’s a limit to how many blocks you can add on at one time, though; think of them like smart watch links, so the more blocks you have the bigger the wrist band will get. You can easily swap them out, though, so you can have an everyday set, an adventure set for hiking and other active pursuits, or a set for the gym that tracks your blood oxygen and heart rate.
