Withings launches exquisite Steel HR Sapphire Signature hybrid smartwatches

Withings, the French company that was acquired by Nokia a few years ago and then recently resold back to the original owner, has just released its first important wearable devices under its own brand.

The Steel HR lineup of smartwatches has just been expanded with two new models that come in various colors and casings. These are Withings' first exquisite smartwatches that focus on looks and feel rather than price.

The new Steel HR Sapphire Signature smartwatches improve on what Withings already offered consumers by adding a tint of luxury. Make no mistake though, these aren't luxury products since you can buy one for as low as €300/$300.

For that amount of money, you'll get a hybrid smartwatch that features a heart rate monitor, activity tracking, sleep monitoring, smart notification support, and a great battery that should offer up to 25 days of normal use on a single charge or 5 days in workout mode.

All Steel HR Sapphire Signature smartwatches are water resistant (up to 50 meters) and can be paired with either Android or iOS devices via Bluetooth. They are available in 36mm and 40mm variants, which can be had in either White/Rose Gold and Blue/Silver or Black/Slate Grey, respectively.
