To test the Watch Urbane, LG has provided a small glass counter as we show in the images and their use required permission from any of its employees. This was the main reason why we could not have it long time on the wrist, or at least not all that we wished.

The sensations in the wrist are very similar to those that you shared in the LTE version, since both have a box made of stainless steel and its dimensions are almost identical. The main differences are found in the buttons-one versus three of LTE- version and a slightly more pronounced frame. In addition, the Watch Urbane has two versions in gold and silver, while the other model is only in silver.
