Casio announced the release of the GB-6900B/GB-X6900B shock-resistant watches. These new watches support Bluetooth® v4.0 with low energy wireless technology enabling pairing with a smartphone to control a smartphone music player from the watch, or adjust watch settings from a smartphone.
Last year, Casio G-SHOCK released the GB-5600AA and GB-6900AA watches that can communicate with an iPhone or AndroidTM smartphone, which enabled features such as an audible, vibration and display notification on the watch when there is an incoming call or email, and auto synchronization to time data received from a paired smartphone. The watches grabbed attention among fans of innovative, next-generation technology timepieces.
The new watches released today add to the previous notification features, by offering richer, two-way operability with a smartphone, for improved usability. A button on the watch can be used to operate smartphone applications, and a paired smartphone can be used to set features on the watch, such as the alarm, Countdown Timer and World Time.
