This Nexus Smartwatch Concept Is Bonkers


Video: We’ve complained before that some smartwatches are just boring remotes for your smartphones, and that they need to actually do something genuinely useful. But what if you didn’t need to purchase a secondary smartwatch device to have a phone on your wrist? What if you had a flexible phone that transformed into a wrist-cuff? That’s the key point of this new Nexus 360 concept.

Designed by the folks over at 91Mobiles, the Nexus 360 as it’s being dubbed is a small phone with a retractible strap concealed in the back. Once deployed, the 360 can wrap around your wrist and converts itself into watch mode, replacing the need for the smartwatch entirely.

Would you use it? What’s your ideal smartwatch? Tell us in the comments!
