The comments came in-a joint interview with the-Financial Times.-"[A smartwatch] has to meet a need, otherwise if it’s just a gimmick or concept," says CEO Chou. The CEO, who is-handing over some responsibilities to focus on new products, believes current smartwatches fall short as they aren't useful in "people's day-to-day lives," and that represents a big opportunity for HTC to release something better.
