Emporio Armani’s latest wearable is the Smartwatch 3, part of its Connected touchscreen smartwatch line. It sports a 1.28-inchAMOLED displaywith 328ppi density and it is powered by the Snapdragon Wear 3100 platform. The new watch also has an upgraded heart rate sensor, as well as 8GB of storage and 1GB of RAM — twice as much as its predecessor. The new Diesel On Axial offers the same specs, but in a different design.

With it, you have the ability to take calls directly on your watch with a proprietary app available for both Android and iOS. UsingGoogle Assistantwill be easier too, since you’re able to now hear its replies. You can also enable sound notifications or even play music directly from the Smartwatch 3, which comes with theSpotifyapp preloaded.

Armani is also promising improved battery life thanks to four battery life settings, including an extended battery mode which only uses the essentials. Rapid charging is available on both smartwatches too.
Last but certainly not least, a look at design. The Emporio Armani watch is both stylish and practical. Its black aluminum case comes in five color accents, paired with a sporty black rubber strap. A sophisticated matte version with a stainless-steel bracelet is available too. All versions come with dial designs featuring cityscapes or the familiar eagle brand logo.
The Diesel On Axial smartwatch doesn’t fall behind in style either. It comes in three dial color variants — silver, grey and gold, while for the straps you can choose between steel, leather, or denim. Customwatch facesare available on the Diesel watch too.
