Every smartwatch
http://www.gizmag.com/smartwatch-comparison-2013/29917/ we've
used so far has played the role of *companion device*. They may allow you
to leave your smartphone in your pocket a little more often, but they're
still a ways off from letting you cut those smartphone strings altogether.
At CES 2014 http://www.gizmag.com/tag/ces-2014/, we just got some
hands-on time with the Neptune
Pinehttp://www.gizmag.com/pine-smart-watch/26470/,
a smartwatch that can actually replace your phone.

The Neptune Pine is easily the bulkiest smartwatch I've used, but it's also
one of the most intriguing. While most smartwatches' screens are in the
1.2-in to 1.6-in range, Neptune Pine gives you a spacious 2.4-in screen. To
get some perspective, that's 108 percent more screen area than the Galaxy
Gear http://www.gizmag.com/samsung-galaxy-gear-review/29288/ gives you.
It's also half the size of the iPhone 4s' screen. It's very much a tiny
smartphone that happens to live on your wrist.
[image: Hands-on: Neptune Pine
smartwatch]http://www.gizmag.com/neptune-pine-hands-on/30347/pictures#3

That size is a tricky balancing act. On one hand, you don't want it to take
up too much space on your wrist (the Neptune Pine is very much toeing that
line). But the flip side is that it's big enough to actually type on, using
one of the many Android keyboards. Neptune CTO Aaron Wilkins told me that
the 2.4-in screen was the smallest size they could make while still
allowing for easy typing. Voice input may end up replacing typing on most
wearable devices, but it's nice having the option of hammering out a text
or email - especially if you're in public and don't want your dictated
messages heard by everyone around you.

Neptune Pine has a VGA front-facing camera, meaning you can use it to video
chat right from your wrist (Dick Tracy would be very proud). The lighting
was pretty poor in our testing area, so the camera didn't exactly knock my
socks off. But considering the conditions, it's about what you'd expect
from a VGA front-facing camera.

smartwatch]http://www.gizmag.com/neptune-pine-hands-on/30347/pictures#2

The Pine also has a 5-megapixel rear camera. Why would you put a
rear-facing camera on a watch? Well, that's because you can actually pull
the watch's main body off of the strap, as you can see above. At that
point, you have in your hands what amounts to a mini-smartphone. Just point
and shoot like you would with a full-sized smartphone.

Pine charges via a micro-USB port that reveals itself when you pull the
main body off of the band. Neptune claims up to seven hours of internet use
on Wi-Fi. Wilkins told me that, with regular use, he has no problems
getting a full day of use out of it.
[image: Hands-on: Neptune Pine
smartwatch]http://www.gizmag.com/neptune-pine-hands-on/30347/pictures#4

Unfortunately the Android 4.1-running Neptune Pine doesn't yet have the
licensing in place to include the Google Play Store and other Google
services on the watch. That will be a bit of a bummer if it ships without
Google's apps - especially if it's a case of Google blocking access to
smaller companies until it can release its own
smartwatchhttp://www.gizmag.com/google-smartwatch-months-away/29581/
(purely
speculation on my part, by the way). In the Play Store's place, Wilkins
told me the company is working on its own app store for Pine. Hardly an
ideal solution: *yet another* third-party app store layered on top of
Android. But under the circumstances, it might be the best route they can
take.

Even if those Google services don't ultimately ship with the Pine, though,
the device is fully rootable. Having handled the watch, I can

Even if those Google services don't ultimately ship with the Pine, though, the device is fully rootable. Having handled the watch, I can confidently say that developers and tinkerers won't have any problem sideloading Google's apps and services, as well as third-party Android apps. The process should be similar to how you'd sideload those services on, say, a hacked e-reader or a custom smartphone ROM.



Based on the few minutes I spent wearing Neptune Pine, I'm eager to spend some more time with it. Having full smartphone functionality on your wrist might not sound likethatbig of a deal. After all, how hard is it to pull your phone out of your pocket? But it's still very cool having all of that functionality just an arm-lift away. I like the idea of skipping the smartphone altogether, saving some pocket space, and replacing it by popping a SIM card into your
