Airpods don't have a camera though. 90% of my photos are of things I need to remember, like a shopping list or a specific product I need to get Having to dig out (or find) my phone to do that is a pain.
And I don't have Airpods because I'd lose them, one by one, and the replacements are twice the price as another pair of perfectly workable Bluetooth headphones.
If they wanted to companies could put a camera in a smart watch easily. Samsung was doing it ages ago.
My kids have a crappy watch ($30-40) that has a camera. It's not a technical problem, it's just a stupid idea, it's not an ergonomic place to use a camera.
For sure, my point is just that they could if it made sense — so clearly they don't think it does, at least for now.
Bruh i’d worried about the privacy of your kids when wearing crappy cheap device with a camera on it
Why? There's no internet connection on it, so the only way to get media on or off is via the micro SD card.
Which would be great if I wore a watch, but I don't
What about the Meta Ray bands?
The time before I lose a pair of glasses is inversely proportional to how much I pay for them. If I spent $400 on glasses they would likely disappear off my face before I left the store
Sunglasses are very easy to lose.
I'm considering a prescription pair because those are less likely to be lost.
I just wish they weren't meta linked.
