Of course, the LG Watch Urbane returns to bet on Android Wear as a traveling companion, a tendency of being away other companies like Samsung. The CEO explained that this new smartwatch is an important part of its strategy to develop wearables who dress and look like everyday accessories, not as electronic devices.
Some of us expected that next smartwatch LG was the mysterious model shown at CES in Las Vegas last, but it seems that more than one model is underway for this year.
