Masimo, the company that sued Apple over patent infringement, has unveiled its own blood oxygen monitoring smartwatch called the Masimo Freedom.
The Masimo Freedom is a health-focused device that can track blood oxygen levels, hydration index, respiration rate, pulse rate variability, pulse rate, steps, and detect falls.
The smartwatch is currently in prototype stage and will be available for sale later this year at a price of $999.

I use to not wear one but I got myself a PineTime and it is very handy for my current job which revolves heavily around time.

The Pinetime is an awesome watch. Basic functionality, but...way more than you'd think for the price and the simple UI. It's crazy what that thing can do.

I pretty much just use it for a watch and phone notifications. There are games on it that I don't play, the HR monitor isn't that great though. A great price for a fun little open source watch.
