 Hey guys, it's Sean from The Verge and I'm here with what might be the coolest thing we see at MWC. This is a smart pocket watch. It's made by a company called MonoOm. It's called the Runcible. You can see it's got these wood backs to it. So while we're here seeing all these companies like Samsung and HTC announce metal and glass phones, this is going to be something that actually has a wood back. They're going to offer options like ceramic, tin, copper, brass, and they will actually all be able to swap these backs too. The idea here is to pull you a little bit further away from your smartphone with this sort of form factor and it's going to have fewer notifications on the screen. I mean, it's obviously a very unique design. So there's a camera right here in the back of the device. They're actually working on a pretty cool feature for the camera that'll let you turn the Runcible like this to zoom and focus. And MonoOm also tells us that the camera that they're going to have in the consumer version will be comparable to something like the iPhone 5 or the iPhone 5S. So it actually should have a pretty good camera and it will work well in low light and it'll have some pretty great resolution. This is early prototypes that we're seeing right now, but they're going to look pretty similar to this when they hit the market later this year. So the goal here is it's going to be charged by the new USB Type-C, the reversible USB, and that'll actually give MonoOm the ability to let you put different covers. You'll be able to attach key chains and stuff. So they're actually working on designs where leather covers that'll flip over to the top of the device make it look a little bit more like a traditional pocket watch. So basically in just about every corner of this device, I mean, it doesn't have any corners, but every corner of this device is going to do things a little bit differently than your normal smartphone. For example, on the Maps feature, they're going to offer you the ability to take the more scenic route. It's going to bring you to your destination on a route that's going to look a little bit nicer and not going to be maybe the most direct and utilitarian way to get to where you're going. I mean, it's really a very Victorian looking piece. You've got these watch faces that keep coming up here. This is just a demo that we're looking at right now, but it's really built with past centuries in mind. It's really kind of a cool device. It's really comfortable to hold in the hand, very light. There'll be a little trimmer when it hits the market. So the Runcible runs on Firefox OS, and we're told that when it gets released by the end of the year, it'll cost you just under the price of an unlocked flagship phone like the iPhone. Yeah, this is the Runcible from MonoOm.
