Intel & Opening Ceremony Launch MICA - The Latest Wearable Luxury Smart Bracelet

The biggest chip maker in the world Intel and Opening Ceremony, one of the leading brands in retail spaces, showroom, and gallery in the US have teamed up to launch a luxury bracelet known as 'My Intelligent Communication Accessory or MICA' that arrives just ahead of Christmas. Designed by Opening Ceremony and engineered by Intel, the MICA smart bracelet is introduced for women and features the precious metal & stone with 18K gold coating and a curved sapphire glass touchscreen display. This accessory can be used to write and send messages, set calendar & event notifications, respond with customizable messages, synch with Google and Facebook and access Yelp search/ratings for your favorite recreation areas be it shopping malls or restaurants.

For the user's personalization needs, the MICA bracelet supports setting a custom digital wallpaper designed by Opening Ceremony. With provision for up to 2 days of battery life, the MICA accessory could be your on-the-go buddy. Apart from these, the basic feature set includes standard micro USB charging, remote access, locking and device location. The cherry on the cake is that MICA is connected by AT&T and includes a two-year wireless data service plan provided by Intel in the price of the bracelet.

    The combination of Fashion and Technology is going to the next step of generation. Mainly for girls who wants Fashion embedded with Technology.
    This product may grab women in USA and Europe but this combination will soon get something different and amazing for the customers to Asia for bit lower price.
    After all its about innovation which starts the fire.
