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

A generic-looking design; terrible battery life; a display that doesn't work in bright sunlight; a strange card-based notification system that doesn't always pop info you want; costs more, lacks the heart-rate monitor, and has a slightly weaker display th
The LG G Watch attempts to bring you the future on your wrist, but with its generic design, unimpressive battery life, and unpolished early software, you're better off waiting to see what else is around the bend....
The first thing that hits you about the LG G Watch is just how much the Android Wear OS dominates the experience. LG has created a product which is subtle and understated, and this allows Google's smartwatch concept to shine through, Compared to the compl
Smartwatches have always struggled when it comes to stamina, and the G Watch is sadly no exception. With normal use you can expect to get around two days before needing to charge, and because you can only topup the battery with the bespoke charging dock,
Google set out to redefine the concept of the smartwatch with its Android Wear platform, and while the G Watch hits a lot of high points, it's doesn't quite knock the ball out of the park. Battery life isn't fantastic, and the body in which LG had placed ...
Intuitive to use, Excellent for Android power users, Water and dust resistant
Battery life is poor, Unit is easily marked
Given the amount of time it has taken for someone to really nail the smartwatch concept, it's tempting to suggest that perhaps the idea of wearable tech isn't all it's cracked up to be. However, we're inclined to believe that all the idea needed was the...

Nice design, Vivid display, Voice recognition
Low battery life, Usefulness is subjective, No heart, rate monitor
The LG G Watch is sweet, and with a price tag of $229, it's really easy to make it an impulse buy. I mean, if you're buying a decent watch anyway, you're likely going to be in the neighborhood of $300-500. And those watches won't show you Facebook notifi...

Abstract: I've been keen on smartwatches pretty much since day one. I get a lot of emails, texts, and assorted notifications, most of them garbage but some vitally important. Having a glancable screen on my wrist makes life infinitely easier. But smartwatches have ...
We used both Android Wear devices over several weeks and found them to be more useful than we'd initially imagined. The ability to look at an incoming notification and see if it's something that requires further attention or can be safely ignored without ...
Lightweight and Easy to Handle, Clear and Bright Screen, Waterproof
Could have used Auto Brightness Feature, Design Could have been better, Not many Apps
LG's watch should be your primary choice in Android Wear if you are looking to get most out of the battery.The G Watch has brilliant battery backup that will easily last for more than a day under normal or mixed usage. But we have to find out more to unde...

Thanks to smartphones, a lot of people don't feel the need to wear a watch, since they can get the necessary time and date information from the device in their pockets. I'm not one of those people. I always wear a watch, and in the LG G Watch, I've found,
Buggy software. Sometimes commands work, sometimes they don't. Android Wear lacks polish. Third party app support is minimal. We expect this all to improve. Although the way software development goes, we could be on the next version of hardware before all
Not yet. If a smartwatch is a thing you desperately want, the LG G Watch is the prettiest hardware you can buy right now, but you should definitely wait until the end of the summer to see if the stunning Moto 360 is any good. You should also wait until An...
