LG G Watch with Android Wear Hands-on [Video]

LG G Watch

 

We heard a lot about LG G Watch with Android Wear OS. Today, we're getting our first look at the LG G Watch and Android Wear in action in a hands-on video that was apparently taken at LG's G3 event. As a warning, the video is in German, so the only phrases we could understand were the ones that sounded like English.

 

There are two thoughts that we took away from the video. First, the LG G Watch is very obviously aiming to be an inexpensive option, likely to give developers easy access to the hardware. The device itself has a very plain square design, and it is almost all plastic, except for a gold band around the sides and the pogo charger pins on the back. This is not a premium device, and it doesn't look like it is trying to be.

 

 

The other take away is that Android Wear itself seems to still be a bit away from the vision that Google showed in the introduction videos. The software is still in beta, and the watch in the video may not have been connected to a companion device, which would limit functionality, so there wasn't much to see. Enjoy the Video below!
