As Android soars to over 80% market share cheaper Chinese and Indian brands are dominating the market similar to OEM PC market. Vivo, ZTE, Alcatel, Coolpad, Lenovo, Huawei are a leader kicking Sony, LG, HTC out the market as they did with BlackBerry, Motorola, Nokia.[1]
Android One will set the bar even lower. Soon a phablet with 5/6" screen, 4GB memory, a quad core CPU and over 16GB storage with Android One may kill all Android Flagships if Google update promise work fine.
Smartphone conversion is topping and market is saturating. Market is reif for a new killer gadget but I don't think it is a watch.
Have you ever watched (heard) someone talking with the mic held between their lips/teeth - you can be a couple feet away from them and not hear them over the sound of the train/bus. It's actually pretty awesome.
Which is really annoying for the people sitting adjacent or across from them. Add more people speaking into their phones and the noise volume tends to go up.

I would love a gadget that doesn't require my eyes.
If I get a whatsapp message, why should I have to look at the screen to see what it says?
Looks like this is pretty cool: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.RSen.Comma...
But Siri can't do it.
I'd prefer my eyes over my ears and voice. Just imagine a train car full of people talking to their phones.

No, I don't think voice is a good choice either. But ears - I wear headphones all day already.
Moto Hint?
And just lack the PCs full of firmware crap, but this one is not removable.
Old vendor OS (Symbian, J2ME, ....) also had it, but not on Android scale.
Is it? How can you tell?
