We certainly don't need to introduce Foxconn to our readers, as it is the manufacturer of most products Apple, which the company assembles from components from suppliers and then sends to the company's warehouses AppleToday, Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai Precision Industry, introduced its own SmartWatch, a smart watch that is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. The company hopes that smartwatches compatible with iOS will become another source of income for the company, which in recent months has been trying to become as independent as possible from production clients.

The company showed off the watch at a general meeting today, saying that the new product can monitor the user's vital signs. The watch can measure the user's heart rate and breathing rate, as well as alert you to incoming calls, social media updates, and so on. The user can simply choose to have their heart rate and breathing rate measured regularly, which, except for the blood pressure measurement, is very similar to the so-called Holter test performed by a cardiologist.

The SmartWatch 2 does offer a 1,6″ display, which allows you to control many phone functions. However, the question arises whether we expect the watch to control the phone or just a simple indication of missed messages and phone calls or updates on Facebookwith the added value being in the measurement of vital signs.

“With a device like this, you can mkeep your phone in your pocket and easily check all kinds of messages on your watch", Foxconn CEO Terry Gou told shareholders. The company has not yet presented the watch officially, but only to members of the company's board of directors and some shareholders, so we have to wait a few more days for the official presentation and more photos.
