The first Google Android Wear-powered smartwatch to be released will be the LG G Watch, and indicates the South Korean electronics company is ready to throw down in a competitive market.
The LG G Watch has the following specifications: Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, 1.65-inch LCD, 512MB RAM, 4GB memory, and Bluetooth 4.0. It measures 37.9×46.5×9.95mm and weighs 63 grams. The smartwatch is running the Android Wear.
Here is what Dr. Jong-seok Park, LG Electronics Mobile Communications president and CEO, said in a statement:
“As one of the first to market with Android Wear, LG wanted to develop a product that functions as an essential companion device but most importantly, was simple to use. We wanted a device that would be simple to learn and so intuitive that users wouldn’t even have to think about how to use its features. That’s what the LG G Watch is all about.”
Interested consumers can pre-order the watch via Google Play for $229 (£135).
The smartwatch market is getting crowded, with Samsung, Pebble, and multiple other companies competing with one another. Don’t forget Apple also wants to make a big splash in the surging market, to carve out a piece of the pie for itself.
