A big hole in HTC’s product portfolio is an Android ar smartwatch. Rumors have floated around about one for a while, but we now have a few indications this may getting closer to reality. 

According to the typically spot-on Blass, the company’s first watch will launch in ne. However, that’s a bit of a delay from original expectations that it would be out earlier in the year. 

FYI, this has been pushed to the week of ne 6th. #htcwearablehttps://t.co/Ei1lT4ac

Other details are still on the slim side, but there has been talk of a round 360×360 display, which is right in line with recent additions to the ar lineup like the Huawei tch. Most Android ar watches have opted for the round look, though there are still a few choices out there with a square face. don’t know if there will be one model for everyone or a diversified set of men’s women’s watches as Motorola has done.

The rumor of HTC getting involved in watchmaking goes back a ways. The company was listed as part of the original group of partners during the launch of Android ar, but it’s only been rumors since then. A watch makes a lot of sense, so the alleged delay could be from HTC’s desire to craft a hit, or to ship the watch with Android N.

y this matters: HTC has been trying to work its way back into the public consciousness of Android hardware, with a shiny new HTC 10 the Vive VR headset. An Android ar watch would complete the cycle well, though it’s a crowded field with a lot of popular models. Fortunately we may not have to wait long to see what HTC comes up with.
