  • The LG Watch Urbane LTE is bulkier and more expensive than a typical smartwatch, but does not do much more other than let you get alerts, calls and messages without your phone. Plus, it lasts only half as long as most other smartwatches.Existing Verizon a...

  • Abstract:  The LG watch Urbane is a well crafted smartwatch running the latest version of Android wear. Now while I have my reservations on the performance functionality of Android wear. LG has created the first luxury Android wear smartwatch with the urbane. It fee...
