Rufus Cuff is the biggest smartwatch you can buy

Smartwatches are starting to pick up popularity, but one major downside to them is their small screen size. The Rufus Cuff plans to change that by offering a huge smartwatch experience. It also runs full Android meaning it can do a lot more than a basic Android Wear watch.

Rufus Cuff is more than big for a smartwatch, it’s huge! This is it’s biggest pro and biggest con. It features a massive 3.2-inch touchscreen, to compare, the average smartwatch screen is roughly 1.5 inches. This means you will be able to see a lot more and have a lot easier time using it, but it will look ridiculous on your wrist.

The watch is powered by a TI Cortex A9 processor, it has a 1175 mAh battery, a 3.2-inch TFT display, GPS, and Wi-Fi. It also features a front facing camera for video conferencing, which is kind of cool. It’s storage is 16, 32, or 64GB, and it runs Android KitKat. For something this big, it is a shame it doesn’t support SIM cards. You are still forced to Bluetooth it to your phone or use it on public WiFi.

Gabe Grifoni, Rufus Labs’ CEO and co-founder said:

“this will replace the need for smartphones, wallets, watches, fitness trackers, everything.”

I am not sure about that, especially since you still need to Bluetooth it to your phone, but in theory it could replace all of those devices one day. It will start shipping in early 2016, and will cost between $249 to $399. They are now accepting pre-orders on Indiegogo. Also, I would love to hear your thoughts on this device in the comments.
