We’ve seen quite a few Android-powered smart watches as of late, including a new entry from Sony and the MOTOACTV from Motorola. They can interface with a smartphone to allow users to receive notifications and manage calls, but so far we haven’t seen any really great all-in-one concepts. That is not to say this Android watch from Shenzhen Phaeton Nice Electronic High-Tech Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (you really can’t make that name up…) will be the driving force behind a phonewatch revolution, but it’s built-in cellular support would make James Bond proud. The device currently runs Froyo on its MTK6516 processor, but an upgraded version should see the 3G-enabled MTK6573 and potential support for Ice Cream Sandwich. The watch sports a camera, microSD slot, speaker and microphone, and a 2-inch 320×240 capacitive display. The whole shebang is priced at only $200. Our friend Charbax with ARMDevices.net went hands-on at CES. Check out the video below.
