The technology mega-corporation once called Facebook (now Meta) is swinging another big swing at smartwatches. Following the abandonment of its original wearable back in 2022, Meta has since resurrected its long-running smartwatch initiative, reportedly planning to launch the device as soon as September, 2025. Apparently, the company is also attempting to shake up the status quo in this instance, adding any number of innovative features that cannot be found on the competition such as the Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy Watch.
The differentiating factor between the new Meta smartwatch and other major consumer smartwatches will be the rumored integration of a camera, a feature that is not in major smartwatch products. Leaks and reports indicate that the device may come with a built-in camera that may allow the consumers to take pictures, make video calls, or possibly use on-device AI to do real-time visual processing. The initial mock-ups presented both a 12MP primary camera and a 5MP selfie camera, but the full hardware of the device might be a bit different at its release. By doin so, Meta is attempting to market its wearable as an optimum pairing to the Ray-Ban intelligent glasses and Meta Quest headset, and it is apparent that the company currently pays much attention on augmented and mixed reality Environments.
This new watch will differ significantly to the previous watches in terms of functionality because it is likely to place less emphasis on monitoring health but instead more in AI capabilities, close integration with the Meta ecosystem and an entire range of additional Metaverse features. The observers of the industry expect its public presentation during the Meta Connect convention hosted on September 17 18, 2025, and its manufacturing supposedly takes place in China with the Huaqin Technology.
Assuming Meta manages to pour out these wild ambitions and make them reality, then its revival might redefine functionality of what a smartwatch is capable of.
