Wearable iPhones

Something that hit the tech world in the past few days is wearable iPhones. From the concept, it looks really interesting in termsn of a device that you might end up wearing in the next few years, i'm of course talking about a world without google glasses or a glasses useable phone/computer.

it's looks to be about a 2.5 inch screen as there are only 3 rows of icons and that's including the dock from the iphone, with access to the app store, music and phone and i know this is just a rumour and concept but it's fun to speculate. The wearable iphone isn't wearable on the wrist like a watch rather it's on the back of your hand, hooked around your fingers with 3 chrome prongs and then 2 chrome prongs at the back securing itself round the wrist.

Personally i think it would be awkward trying to make a phone call on it since from the concept video, it shows that the microphone and in phone speaker are in the usual locations and it would cause you to inverting move your hand weirdly while you could easily stick a microphone and speaker on the chrome prongs so it would look like your only holding your hand up against your face.

Music wouldn't really be that fun either because like most headphones, they aren't long enough for all the acticitys my hand does and the wire would get in the way all the time unless you had a long sleeve shirt and you'd run the wire up your sleeve and into your ears.

Sure you've got other stocks apps like calculator, stocks, photos but there's one more and that's the app store, first of all if it's meant to be a wrist device, you'd only be able to play games like angry birds and games that only require one hand. I haven't seen the rumour specs that come with this iWrist but i wouldn't picture them pretty high if all they could do is play angry birds.

Thanks for reading
