Android Wear officially launches early July 2014 and LG seems to be the only supplier determined to have a product ready soon that features Android Wear. The LG G watch is set to ship 7 July.
Google announced their new venture into wearable tech at Google I/O and there has been a lot of fuss concerning the new technology that is going to arrive.
Pebble made huge success with their Kickstarter funded watch that has the same features shown by Android Wear. The Pebble has to make do with its own app and it causes bottle necks for them.
Google has embedded their beautiful Google Now interface into the Android Wear that makes the upcoming watches much more appealing to the public. Pebble watches were only seen on the wrists of the Geek community and it did not benefit the average Mobile user as much.
What does apple have to say?
The iWatch has been leaked and shows off, in true apple beauty, their take on wearable tech. Apple has little experience with wearable tech though so it will be interesting to see what Apple can produce, but apple has never disappointed their customers in the 21 first century.
Motorola announced their new Moto 360 watch, it will provide a much more natural look to the smart watch industry. The round face of the watch, brings a lot of challenges with it for the developers.
It has a small blank spot at the bottom of the screen where all the hardware necessary to power the device is stored.
Motorola claims their device will include a wireless charger, this is confirmed by the lack of charging ports on the device.
The Moto 360 is set to launch later in 2014 and could finally provide the industry with a good looking smart watch.
Android wears features include weather, commute, notes, appointments, fitness, voice search, navigation, and music control. All these features are also available on the pebble but in a drastically more stylish fashion and the main reason is: Android Wear includes colour display.
