It was announced a strap that works with Apple Watch. It is an accessory that, in addition to giving a new colorful look to the phone, acts as a backup battery. It’s called Wipowerband. And compatible with the Watch normal and with the other versions. It can already be preordered and promises to double or almost autonomy.
As alternative and avant-garde can be, the smartwatch have an important gap: the autonomy. The idea of having a watch that is to be loaded on a daily basis is not particularly encouraging.
Therefore, in view of the release of Apple Watch, who has worked there just to smooth the problem. It ‘was in fact already introduced a product that accompanies Watch giving it a touch of color and not only that: it also includes a battery.
We are talking about a strap, which as you can see from the cover is a sparkling orange that lines the inside of the strap. It is called Wipowerband and its interior has a battery high density lithium polymer battery capable of providing a refill almost complete.
So the autonomy with Wipowerband is bound (almost) to double.
We say almost because for the moment it was not done any testing on this and this figure is based on “estimates”. We must also add that the Cupertino company has yet to give the green light to the product for the use of induction charging MagSafe: technology “Inductive tight couple” that is advertised may not meet the requirements of the Apple.
The timing of the announcement was made that Wipowerband has gained some visibility.
