I think this simple and yet special feature is very useful!

The watch hand will be holding the phone, the other hand will operate the watch... It will look as if you're stretching both hands in the photo I guess. If you're not taking a selfie, you wouldn't need the watch anyway.

It's a fancy function, but IMO far from practical. It would be useful if you pair it with a pair of glasses that can take photos though :Laughing_on_floor:

LOL I think it's useful if the phone is placed on somewhere and use watch as remote.
If you hold the phone means you are to stretched both hand just to snap photo then u might as well use the timer on the phone to snap photo which is far far more easier.  :Laughing_on_floor:

Google glass was exactly that, but it was a shame that product didn't take off. I think you just need to squint your eye to take a photo with that.

I don't have steady hands and it makes it worse when I press the smartphone screen or button to snap a photo.

A smartwatch to be used as a remote control does help.

What about watch which can record movement like a CCTV?

So that we can have another episode of ..."looks like me sounds like me but not me"
"Train Yourself To Let Go Of Everything you Fear To Lose"

"The Fear Of Loss Is A Path To The Dark Side"
