Back in May BGR was able to sit down and talk to Antoine Boucher, Vice President of Accessories Integration, about some upcoming BlackBerry accessories. Boucher indirectly mentioned the possibility of a BlackBerry Bluetooth watch being in the works.
Now we have the first real renderings of the final product. It may be called the “inPulse” and it features an OLED display, real-time message preview, and probably caller ID. It is designed for those times when you can’t-or shouldn’t be-holding on to your handset. You can tuck your phone into a drawer or briefcase within Bluetooth range, and use the watch to check for emails or messages.
Along with this news Kevin has provided renderings of the actual watch and some key features:
*it has been designed specifically for BlackBerry from the ground up – developed by a new BlackBerry-dedicated accessory company
*it features an OLED screen that we hear is “big, bright and beautiful” and optimized for displaying text clearly, and thanks to OLED has solid battery life
*it’s designed to show you notifications and previews of messages arriving on your BlackBerry
*judging by the filename of the photos as they were sent in to us, we’re thinking it’s going to branded the inPulse smartwatch
