Abstract: LG's first Android Wear watch was pretty uneventful, but the company took a big leap forward with its fast follow-up, the G Watch R. Now LG's third Wear smartwatch, which is almost identical to that second one, is also available. Read on, for Gizmag's LG...
The LG Watch urbane is impressive and beautifully crafted. The new user interface based on WebOS is really intuitive with a fully functional keyboard for messaging and placing phone calls. I am eager to know the pricing and when we will be able to get it...
The battery life of the Urbane isn't ideal, but it's far better than most other Android Wear smartwatches. The design of the wearable is also a head turner, with its classic circular face and simple timepiece feel, The on-board Android 5.1.1 software felt
That same elegant design is also a bit irritating on another level – it's far too large. Sure, there are plenty of massive analogue watch faces that we're all used to seeing, But, if a smartwatch is going to be marketed to both men and women, it would be
The LG Watch Urbane is the watch you should get if you want a premium looking LG G Watch R. You'll basically be breaking out $349 (£259, AU$459) for a smartwatch you could have for $100 less.Again, there's no doubt that the Urbane is a lovely-looking wear...
Anno 2016 a smartwatch cannot be labeled unmissable and essential. It's definitely a nice gadget to have, but you'll get through the day just fine without one, without ever feeling that you miss something. Manufacturers have realized that marketing a sm...

Abstract: With smartwatch scene becoming more crowded than ever LG is showing where this type of device is headed with elegant yet powerful Watch Urbane. A metal coat and Android Wear platform are enriched with 1.3-inch circular display with a resolution of 320 x 3...
The Urbane is easily the best LG smartwatch we've laid eyes on, and is currently the best Android Wear smartwatch we've reviewed. It loses a few marks for its build however, as we've been spoilt by the different size choices offered by Apple and Motorola...
There's a lot to like about the LG Watch Urbane with its handy Wi-Fi connectivity and the welcome new version of Android Wear. Since it's essentially the same device as the G Watch R in terms of hardware, your purchase really hinges on the design. It is e...
Good construction, Nice POLED screen (especially indoors), A slightly more elegant and traditional version of the G Watch R, Decent battery life, but it could still be better, WiFi, unlike the G Watch R, Water resistant (IP67)
Might be a bit big for some, Poor quality leather strap, Screen sometimes difficult to read outside, Android Wear still isn't perfectly optimized for round screens, Still no brightness sensor
Meant to be a more upmarket version of the G Watch R, the Watch Urbane has only slightly evolved in terms of features and performance while failing to meet our expectations concerning the quality of materials. It benefits from the addition of Wi-Fi, which...
Abstract: Smartwatches are hot news again. It might have taken the entry of Apple to the segment to really ramp up the excitement, but there's no question that the release of the Apple Watch has helped raise interest again in Android Wear. LG launching their Urbane...
