With Google Android Wear presenting the output is given to manufacturers preocupasen only by the hardware and design watches, but the software also thereby achieving a set ecosystem and not force developers to adapt their applications to each of the existing platforms.
Since we saw at the Google I / O the first batch of watches with Android Wear, the LG G Watch, Samsung Gear Live and Motorola Moto 360, all had clear that the latter was the most desired, but unfortunately take a little longer to get to market. That wait has come to an end, Motorola has officially unveiled the Moto 360, but not the only one, in recent weeks more and more manufacturers have joined the platform Wear, being the IFA point most ad .
Asus and Sony have made their first approach with ZenWatch and SmartWatch 3, while LG and Samsung have introduced new models, the first G Watch R with its circular shape to compete with the 360, and the second with the Gear S, one of the most complete (and big), but unfortunately does not run Android Wear, but Tizen.
Thus, as we have done with comparing the best high-end smartphones 2014 best midrange phones and Android tablets best light, it is his turn to wearables. The following table face to face we all clocks with Android Wear (with special guest Gear S), compare their features, sensors and of course prices. Remember that you can scroll horizontally through the table with the lower sliding bar or if read from a mobile or tablet.
In terms of components, the changes are minimal. Manufacturers have chosen screens from 1.3 inches to 1.6 “, unless Samsung has jumped to 2” in the Gear S and according to initial tests, is too large. In the shape of a clock indicate the difference circular, the Moto 360 and G Watch R, while the rest goes to the “traditional” and square.
As for the processors, as well as smartphones, Qualcomm dominates with a very familiar SoC, the Snapdragon 400, unless a Texas Instrument Motorola and Samsung in the Gear S with 1.0GHz DualCore unknown. Both on the RAM capacity are unanimous: 512MB and 4GB.
If we batteries, important point and actually where most to improve all, choice, but the average is in 400mAh, with scarce as 300mAh of Gear S and Gear Live or 320mAh of Moto 360. ie autonomy of a day or less, for now.
