Adidas introduced its Smart Watch at GigaOM’s Mobilize 2013conference in San Francisco. Device will be priced at $399, and going to be available from 1st Nov. Featuring a GPS Tracking and Heart rate monitoring system. Though it lacks certain features such as communicate with or forward notifications to your smartphone, nor can users stream music from their mobile device. It include flash storage and will have the facility of receiving audio coaching to any Bluetooth headset connected with the Watch. said Paul Gaudio, vice president of adidas.

He said: “We didn’t incorporate anything we didn’t think a runner wouldn’t need or appreciate… we left certain things out on purpose,” he also said “We’re not trying to make a smartwatch, but the smartest running watch.” Thus clarifying why it lacks certain features.
