Nubia recently announced its new alpha project. It is called the Nubia Alpha. At its core, Nubia has put characteristics of a smartphone – such as video chat, calculator, and watching videos – on the tiny screen of a smartwatch. It may sound good, but of course, every good product has its downsides. For starters, it has a very wide screen. It would also cost about 510 dollars (pretty expensive for a watch). But back to the good news.

This watch is planned to have a 5-megapixel camera, which is amazing for a watch. Furthermore, it has Bluetooth capability and modern specs. There is two models for this smartwatch, a cheaper model would be available which has Bluetooth so you can pair it to your phone. The expensive version would include SIM capability. So, it can be just like a phone. There will be two color schemes: gold and black. This smartwatch will be available to North America, starting in April.

This relates to engineering because machines like these require programming, coding, building, engineering, and innovation.
