Lauded for its ground-breaking innovation, the Pebble was the first watch to be built with syncing capabilities with iPhone and Android smartphones. Its primary use is for notifications—alerting the user about incoming calls, texts, e-mails and social media. US$150 (S$188) from getpebble.com.

Samsung Galaxy Gear
This brand new baby comes with a 1.9-megapixel camera built in. While that feature might seem a little creepy, it does away with the swipes, taps and pinches, making it easier than ever to capture that precious moment.
$488 from Samsung Experience Store, #02-28-29 Vivocity, 1 Harbourfront Ave., 6376-9150, www.samsung.com/sg.
