Since its release, users have wondered when the Apple Watch would include a camera. As of the recent Series 6 revisions, the Apple wearable has yet to integrate a camera. However, a new product for Apple Watch adds a pair of cameras to your wrist.
Wristcam is an Apple-certified band for your Apple Watch and includes a pair of Sony-made cameras.
A 2MP 'self-facing' camera can record 1080p video, while a second 'world-facing' camera records 8MP still images and 4K video. By using the accompanying Wristcam app on your Watch, you can live stream video, take advantage of a live viewfinder to capture images and video, browse a gallery, and even share your images and videos.

To ensure that you know the Wristcam is recording, there are bright LEDs next to both cameras. When shooting stills, there'll be a single pulse of light. When recording a video, the light will continuously blink. There are dedicated microphones next to each camera and there is a quick capture button located beneath the world-facing camera.
Wristcam promises 'all day' battery life with moderate to heavy use. Wristcam is water-resistant up to 1m for half an hour. It includes 8GB of internal memory to sync photos and videos with your phone while the Wristcam is charging. The internal storage holds about 2,000 images or an hour of video. Wristcam includes built-in Wi-Fi (2. 4 and 5 GHz) and Bluetooth (5. 0).
