The Pitch: Kempler & Strauss’s W PhoneWatch is billed as the world’s tiniest GSM quad-band mobile phone watch. It works with Bluetooth systems like headsets and car systems, but it also features a “W Communicator” micro-handset, which also doubles as a Bluetooth headset. The W PhoneWatch boasts a touchscreen for finger-inputs. The microSD card slot allows you to take your MP3s with you. To top it all off, there’s a teeny tiny camera in there somewhere!

Pro: Convenient in that your watch is your mobile phone; touchscreen; microSD card slot.

Con: Bulky design — you’ll get looks, but probably not the good kind; small screen and big fingers don’t go well together

Recommendation: The W PhoneWatch’s design feels a bit uninspired, especially with compelling alternatives from big-name phone manufacturers.

Price: $199.99
