Incoming call alert / notifier

[Dezz]

Hi everyone 

 

I'm currently looking for a cheap device that would notify me about incoming calls on my phone (I have phone on silence in my pocket and I need to put the notifier on my desk).

 

Smart wearables sound like a good option but they have additional functions that would be pointless for me (and most likely they are more expensive).

 

Ideally I'd like to have just small pendant or something like Mathmos Badge, preferably with visual notification (LED) not vibration.

 

Price up to 15€.

 

Do you think that there's such a thing that would meet my requirements?

so.. i know i shouldnt do this..

 

but is there a reason why your phone has to be on silence, and cannot be on vibe?

You can buy one of these really cheap smartwatches. Other than that, I cannot think of any other alternative.

Im replying for myself but there are reasons. 

 

when you're playing sports and stuff you cant have it on you for obvious reasons, so it would make a lot of sense to keep it in the bag and still be notified when someone's calling so you can go pick it up....

 

Also some classes have a strict no Cell phone policy but dont say anything about wearables  (go figure) so it might help there as well

Actually it doesn't have to be on silent - just no-sound (but unfortunately I don't feel the vibration from incoming calls so it's the same like silent mode)

 

Just to specify the situation, I can't have my phone with me at work (of course I carry my phone with me in pocket coz I don't want to leave it in the locker).

 

It happened to me couple of times (or more precisely everytime) that someone calls me and I don't feel the vibration so I'd like to solve the situation with some kind of notifier.

I was actually thinking about some cheap chinese smartwatches, do you have any experence with these kind of products. I'm a little worried about the bluetooth connection on these cheap smartwatches.

I have had experiences and its not pretty, but it will work well for what you want from these watches...i.e to receive calls etc.
