Google launches Android Wear Beta based on Android Oreo, LG Watch Sport gets it first
The Mountain View company has just announced it has launched the beta of the next Android Wear update, and the first smartwatch to get it will be the LG Watch Sport.
As we mentioned at Google I/O, this will mainly be a technical upgrade to API 26 with enhancements to background limits and notification channels, explained Google in a blog post.
In fact, even those who don't use an LG Watch Sport can start testing the beta of the next Android Wear OS by downloading the factory image and use the Android emulator instead of the smartwatch.
Additional Android Wear beta builds based on Android Oreo may follow in the coming months, and some of them may be compatible with other smartwatches, but for the time being, the LG Watch Sport is the only one that gets it.
