Anonymous, 04 Apr 2017Ever heard of the Microsoft Band?Yeah, but the Microsoft Band was a bit more of a high-tech fitness tracker wearable than a out-&-out smartwatch.

              Most Casio watches don't have sapphire glass. They are covered on scratches within month or two.
              So, MS and Casio are really fitting companies.

                Is Cortana in Casio?

                    Oh! So now Microsoft is now dipping it's toes into the smartwatch race?! Best of Luck!

                        My prediction , it will fail. Microsoft are just not that good with watches or phones . The support is not there , even though i love lumia phone , the design and the os , but support for app is what always keep me away . Especially with games..

                                  ....yeah and whenever you want to see what time it is, there is a high risk that it will be busy performing yet another "windows update" including booting...
