Adidas Announces New Smartwatch with Fitness Tracker

Adidas has announced its plans to release a new smartwatch, just one day after Nike debuted its FuelBand SE.

The watch will focus on runners and will include GPS, a personal coach, and built-in heart rate sensor that will work off a user’s pulse. Users will be able to pair the watch with Bluetooth headphones, which will let users hear workout updates without having to check the screen.

Beyond fitness tracking, the smartwatch will also include a media player, so that users can listen to music on the go, whether they are working out or just taking the train to work.

Adidas has not offered much information regarding the device, but it will launch November 1 with a price tag of $399.
