Remember the "smart straps» Pebble Smartstraps? It seems that something similar will be and Apple Watch. At least, the first accessory
of this kind was announced in March, and it is called Reserve Strap. But since then the design of the device has changed dramatically.
Initially it was assumed that the Reserve Strap able to charge Apple Watch induction method, but it seriously complicates the design and increases the size. Nevertheless, it was at least some version of extending the battery life of smart watches, which obviously would have found a buyer. But then it turned out that the Apple gadget has a hidden 6-pin port and it can be used for charging.
Using this port, developers Reserve Strap greatly simplified the design of the strap, making it smaller, sleeker and more functional. However, still need an adapter, but it will be included with the accessory.
Apple has not commented on the news about the hidden port in its smart-hours, but the journalists are doing it with great pleasure. In particular, the presence of such a port would allow potentially release accessories for fast charging hours, still contactless induction charging is less effective in this regard. In addition, in the future it is possible to extend the functionality of the emergence of smart watch straps, including specialties from Apple, which will update the devices less often. Let's not let the new models every year, and every 2-3 years, which will make the purchase of expensive steel models more promising.
The currently available to order on the Reserve Strap, paying $ 249 but the release date is not yet known strap.
