Clunky and uncomfortable to wear

Expensive
Still a little on the chunky side
Swiping scheme still a little convoluted
Watch button is superfluous
Software can still be hiccupy
Round screens are still a mixed bag A smaller standard font size and font size options (new in Wear 5.1) make a significant difference compared to the G Watch R
But rectangular text layouts on a circular screen are a difficult pitfall to avoid unless you

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....
Very attractive, classic design, Well put together, Waterand dustresistant (IP67), Interchangeable, 22 mm straps, Industryleading battery life, Packs the latest version of Android Wear
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...

Improved low-power watch faces, First to get Google's Android Wear improvements, Solid battery life, Smooth performance
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...
Abstract: It's a tale of two smartwatches. Both round, both running Android Wear. One selling for $349, the other for $180. So which watch is the one for you?We're talking, of course, about the LG Watch Urbane and the Moto 360 -- two of the most buzzed about Androi...
Crisp, classic design; fully round, beautiful OLED display; latest Android Wear support; Wi-Fi antenna connects to phone across different Wi-Fi networks; decent battery life (for Android Wear)
Big design won't appeal to many wrists, Android Wear software still doesn't feel all that smooth to use, Wi-Fi connectivity spotty at times, watch is expensive compared to other Android Wear options
The LG Watch Urbane is the best-looking Android Wear smartwatch and adds Wi-Fi-to-phone connectivity, but it doesn't offer all that much more than previous Android Wear watch models....

Premium price, Stainless can be prone to scratches over time
