Sony launches Wena 3 Smart Band in Japan

3^rd  generation of its smartwatch band – Sony Wena 3. The company announced the wearable. The company claims to have designed the mechanical structure, antenna, electrical circuit, and board pattern in-house to make sure everything fits through the loop. He also adds that compared to Wena Active, it is 30% smaller in volume and 2.5mm thicker. The company says that it is powered by a unique algorithm for daily health management.

There’s also a “MAMORIO” notification function that helps prevent misplacement and supports searching. The device is said to offer one week of battery life on a single charge and has a built-in reverse power of 24 hours that can be used for payments. It also comes with support for Alexa voice assistant.

Display

The display also has impact resistance which is claimed to withstand a drop impact of 90cm. Apart from this, the smart wristband also comes with support for 5ATM standard waterproof, which is usually found in any wearable device nowadays. In order to improve fit, the battery, as well as the touch-panel display, come in a curved design. 

The screen is now much larger – the Wena Pro had a tiny line display, this one fits several lines of text. It can display notifications from your phone (which you navigate by swiping) and has alarms and timers (which your watch may or may not lack).
