Want to step into the future with your smart watch? Italian-made i’m Watch will bring you as close to the Jetsons as you can get (sans the flying car, of course). This smart watch offers the usual notifications for texts, e-mail, and calendar but also displays a screen where you can check Tweets, Facebook, and Instagram posts. The body of the watch also has a headphone jack for listening to music and a microphone for making and receiving phone calls. 

The path to the future, however, is not without glitches. With a lot of features (and a European pedigree), this watch comes a hefty price. The i'm Watch starts at $399.99 (though, at the time of this posting, there was an online special price of $299.99). The watch is also bulkier than others, with a thick band and large face. Reviewers have also complained about issues setting up the device and its ability to perform certain functions – with a low battery life to boot.

Price: $399.99 ($299.99 online)

Colors: Yellow, Red, Blue, White, Pink, Black
