The LG G Watch is the best smartwatch we've reviewed so far, partly due to the affordable price tag and the excellent, albeit not flawless, Android Wear system. You will need a device with Android 4.3 or later, though. The design of the G Watch doesn't wo...

Abstract: I spent the first half of this summer driving around the heat and humidity of the American south, living at campgrounds and the occasional hotel room or guest room. It was a trip borne of madness and masochism, but the last week was a little bit easier th...

Abstract: Smartwatches have been around for a couple of years now, but most consumers sat on the sidelines waiting for something more compelling. Watches like the WiMM One, Sony SmartWatches, and Galaxy Gears (now just Gear) were all okay, but they seemed to serve ...
Abstract: The LG G Watch review is here! It's one of the two Android Wear devices you can currently buy, but is it any good? First generation hardware and software usually aren't the best, but let's see how Google and LG came together on this one....
Design is simplistic, minimal, Easy to customize with different watch bands, Fast charging time, Android Wear handles plenty very well already including notification cards and voice commands, Wear should grow quite well
Design might be too minimal for some, No buttons, only touch inputs, Difficult to get battery to last more than 2 days, Some functions still missing, or not perfected, on Android Wear, Smartwatches still on the fringe, not yet widespread
8.0 If you are even remotely interested in having the world not just at your fingertips, but always at the ready on your person, then Android Wear is a wonderful place to start and the LG G Watch is the watch that presents to you Android Wear with no fril...

Having Google Now on your wrist is truly useful and convenient. Charging cradle is easy to use. Tracks steps
The hardware is bulky and uncomfortable. Features are limited—for now. Notifications are often delivered with a significant (5minuteplus) delay. Battery lasts barely a day. The constant vibrating of new notifications is really just the worst thing ever
We'll make this part easy: Both the LG G Watch and the Samsung Gear Live should get you through a full day without worry. But regardless of which watch you choose, you'll almost certainly need to charge it every single night.Some folks seem disappointed b...
Abstract: When I was young I wanted to be Michael Knight (I still do) so when the LG G Watch Android Wear launched how could I not buy one and look a little bit more like my hero.Back in the 80's I used to stand in front of our old TV and be glued to the screen for...
