The Fyver is a brilliant new standalone smartwatch that offers fully untethered functionality in that it can be used as an all-encompassing smart device on its own without having to be connected to any smartphone device via Bluetooth. This means that you can effectively use the watch as a phone and make calls directly.
Currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign over on Kickstarter, this particular standalone smartwatch is designed to get around the problem of smartwatches being simply seen as 'second screen' solutions, meaning that they're really just wearable interfaces rather than self-contained gadgets.
By functioning completely independently, the Fyver watch acts as a device on its own merits, all within an approachably sleek aesthetic.
