A Single Infographic That Explains The Smartwatch Wars In Detail

After reading my post on smartwatches, the good folks at Silica Labs, a custom app development company for wearable technology, designed this excellent graphic to compare smartwatches available in the market today. According to Stephanie Nguyen, who designed the graphic, their company has developed a service that it makes it easy for publishers to get on Google GOOG -0.16% Glass and smartwatches.

The infographic has some interesting data points that help you compare smartwatches at multiple price points. For example, Pebble offers good value-for-money (although it does not have a camera or a game-changer screen). Similarly, the price difference between established brands, such as QualcommQCOM -2.19% and Samsung, is not much.

Display technologies and integration with fitness apps, whether through Bluetooth or other modes, are important for smartwatches,. Their importance highlights one of the most critical use cases for smartwatches: tracking fitness activity.

However, that use case might not be enough to create a market for smartwatches. Enough said, however.

The infographic does a better job at explaining these things that I can.
