  • Abstract:  At $349 dollars in the Google Store, it is the most expensive Android Wear device, dethroning its predecessor (or almost twin sibling), the LG G Watch R, which was also the most expensive product, at $299 (and so was the G Watch before that). Even at this...

  • Bright display, First to ship with Android Wear 5.1
  • Bulky and heavy, No ambient light sensor
  • This metal version of the G Watch R tries, and fails, to bring high-class design to Android Wear. Its average performance isn't worth the high price....

  • Its size and design may hold little appeal to women, Occasional software crashes and slowdowns
  • In our mind, out of all the smartwatch makers on the market right now, LG is one of very few that seems to get it — a smartwatch needs to blend in, and not stand out, in order for people to consider purchasing it. It also needs to be well-designed, made o...

  • Clumsy, ostentatious design, It's the most expensive Wear watch, No ambient light sensor
  • The Watch Urbane is LG's best stab at an Android Wear smartwatch to date, and those of you with beefy wrists will especially enjoy its broad, slab-like construction, not to mention its mostly premium look. Thing is, the best parts of the Urbane experienc...
