The editors didn't like
Poor heart rate tracker
Chunky and unsubtle design
1.5 day battery life is so-so
Chunky size
Confusing interface
That same elegant design is also a bit irritating on another level – it's far too large. Sure
There are plenty of massive analogue watch faces that we're all used to seeing
But
If a smartwatch is going to be marketed to both men and women
It would be
Might be a bit big for some
Poor quality leather strap
Screen sometimes difficult to read outside
Android Wear still isn't perfectly optimized for round screens
Still no brightness sensor
Chunky
Tacky design
Poor battery life
Limited app functionality
Questionable heart rate sensor
Price is too high
Design misses its sophisticated aim
Plastic back feels cheap
It's big
Android Wear needs work
Very expensive

Wi-Fi connectivity spotty at times
Watch is expensive compared to other Android Wear options
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...

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

In the end, the Watch Urbane wouldn't even be in my top three list of Android Wear watches to consider. It's big, not designed well for a human wrist, doesn't feature anything spectacular over other watches, is uncomfortable to wear, and is more expensi...

Really, really nice The Watch Urbane feels just as nice as it looks nicer even, perhaps. The polished body is gorgeous, and the subtle design changes make it a much more elegant piece than the G Watch R, Wear 5.1 Android Wear 5.1 adds some new features an
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
The Watch Urbane is, in my utterly subjective opinion, the best-looking Wear device yet announced. The Huawei Watch and Moto 360 also look nice, but the Huawei Watch simply is too generic "steel luxury watch" for me, and while the 360 is definitely quite ...
Abstract: We've got some solid options for Android Wear watches, but let's be honest: It's been tough so far to single out any one of them as providing a truly great all-around user experience.The Moto 360 is gorgeous but not without its issues. Sony's SmartWatch 3...

Abstract: LG's first Android Wear watch was pretty uneventful, but the company took a big leap forward with its fast follow-up, the G Watch R. Now LG's third Wear smartwatch, which is almost identical to that second one, is also available. Read on, for Gizmag's LG...
The LG Watch urbane is impressive and beautifully crafted. The new user interface based on WebOS is really intuitive with a fully functional keyboard for messaging and placing phone calls. I am eager to know the pricing and when we will be able to get it...
