The Olio-trio - Steven Jacobs, Evan Wilson and AJ Cooper have come around together to setup a startup to take on the smart watch industry. What better then geniuses from Apple, Pixar, NASA, Google, Movado and, of course, HP using the best of their expertise to design a smart watch that leaves behind all!

For all the gadget freaks this news going to be a pleaser, while Apple is all set to astonish the world with its smart watch, the new brand Olio is hogging all the limelight. The sleek watch by Olio has a long-term performance with traditional timepieces.

Just wait to gauge on what all is in store – here are five things one needs to know about Olio smart watches:

1. The all new Olio smart watch with in-built features like calendar, location, weather, will only notify wearer things which might be of utmost importance to them. Unlike other smart-phone gears for the wrist, this watch will keep tab on their preferences and habits, and as the time passes it will get better & better.

2. The Olio without even distracting wearer would push constant notification and updates out of their way and would side-line things in a proper stream that will help them to check up on what they have lined up for the day & what’ve they missed.

3. Apart from regular features, Olio can work as hub for products like products like thermostats, lights, garage doors and speakers. This smartphone comes with a stainless steel casing, rear crystals and a full colour display.

4. The price range starts from $595 for steel collection and could go up $745 if one wants to go in for black collection. The best part of the watch is that wearer can team it up with other straps like leather and steel one. The watch can be a prefect amalgamation of technology and trend.

5. Unlike other smart watches that depend on Google's Android Wear platform, Olio has its own OS to run upon. It has been intricately designed in way to give it a circular look which seems more of a jewel piece that a regular minicomputer.
