The Sony button smartwatch "wena3" launched on November 27th, 2020. This is the wena series of new products that have emerged as a start-up within Sony. The concept used with analog watches remains the same, and by the third generation, joint applications have taken on a new look. Enlarge the monitor to make the notification display on the smartphone more comfortable. And also completed the response to the long-awaited "Suica".
In practical use, it has unique fashion and practical Sony products. On the other hand, there are also aspects that are uneasy about the stability of the Bluetooth connection and the reliability of the activity log measurement. Let's take a closer look at what wena3 can do.
Buckle with fashion touch panel
The Wena3 has a horizontal-length grayscale organic EL display on the side of the band buckle. The size of the monitor is larger than that of traditional products, and the notice can display three lines. In response to the touch operation, various functions can be invoked by tracking the display surface.

The circular electronic paper display is in a horizontal shape and can display information just like the notification panel of a mobile phone. Because it is configured on one side of the buckle, the burden of raising the wrist is very small, so it can be said to be very suitable for easily browsing the design of LINE and Twitter notifications.
Various functions of Wena3 are connected to the Bluetooth smartphone and set up from the application. If it is set up like the billing function, activity measurement and smart lock, then there is a function that can act even without a phone, and like the notification function and the cooperation of Alexa, connecting with the smartphone is a necessary function.
[correction: at 11:00 on February 27th, 2021, the smart lock must be connected to the smartphone, but it was an error. I'm sorry, I'll correct it.]
The holding capacity of the battery is nominal as one week, and when actually paired with a smartphone, you don't have to worry about the amount of battery left for nearly a week. Charging is a special terminal with a small adapter for USB Type-C conversion. Because it also supports mobile phone charger and portable battery power supply, it will not cause inconvenience to charging.

There are three styles of Wena3: metal belt, leather belt and rubber belt. After buying, you can't change to another kind of band, so it's better to choose a design that suits your favorite fashion and watch face. In addition, the metal belt and leather have two color changes, if they are of the same kind, you can buy a change of different colors.
The collection of smartwatch functions on the belt buckle improves the freedom to choose the watch interface, which is the greatest charm of the wena series.

Also prepared with the animation "EVA" and "shell mobile team" cooperation mode.
In addition, on the dial other than the pure wena, it also corresponds to a watch with a lug width of 18 mm~24 mm. If it is a dial for larger men, many faces can be installed. If you just change the chessboard, the tool is also unnecessary (however, depending on the lug width, a separate sales section is required).
ヘッド部は器具なしで取り外せる。ただし、細かいパーツをなくさないように注意が必要だThe metal belt is the main distribution type, narrowing the width of the chess pieces than the previous model, and the shape of the arm is easy to be familiar with. Although the size adjustment is the same as the general watch structure, it is recommended to bring the size adjustment of the metal belt to the watch shop.

Generally speaking, it is appropriate for a watch strap to have "the width of a finger", but people with thin arms are best adjusted with a slightly tighter sense of size. This is because the author adjusts in the gap of "one finger", but in the process of use, because of the weight of the wena body, the watch will turn over and the side of the buckle will come to the front.
