It appears this capability won’t be limited only to Google’s smartwatches, and will apparently make its way to Samsung’s Galaxy Watches in the future. Mishaal Rahman found evidence that Watch Unlock may also make its way…

EDITOR NOTE: A flash launch sale puts the price at just $250 for the phone. It’s a limited time offer but one that you won’t want to miss. Much like it did with its predecessor, the N1, BOLD’s approach is more of a premium experience than what Blu typically offers.
