Louis Vuitton’s Tambour Horizon smartwatch is poised for a significant upgrade, as it will soon be powered by Qualcomm’s latest wearable chipset, the Snapdragon Wear 3100. This cutting-edge processor, also found in Fossil’s Sport smartwatch and the Montblanc Summit 2 device, offers consumers a variety of options in terms of both pricing and luxury.
While Fossil’s Sport smartwatch is available for $255 and the Montblanc Summit 2 device for $995, the upcoming Louis Vuitton Tambour Horizon featuring the Snapdragon Wear 3100 is expected to be priced at $2,490 or more. The luxury smartwatch saw some cosmetic changes in 2018, including new watch faces, but the real enhancements are scheduled for 2019.
The next generation of the Tambour Horizon will boast a state-of-the-art processor, promising improved battery life and a sleek ambient mode. The display will receive upgrades in terms of resolution and a 24-hour ring, offering a more refined user experience. Expect new colors and materials to be introduced in the design, potentially including a white ceramic option for added sophistication.
Although the exact pricing and release date have yet to be confirmed, considering the original model’s $2,490 price tag, it’s likely that the 2019 version will come with an even higher cost. Nonetheless, for those looking for a luxury smartwatch that seamlessly blends style and functionality, the Louis Vuitton Tambour Horizon could be a worthwhile investment. Keep an eye out for further updates on this highly anticipated release from Louis Vuitton.
