LG G Watch R fully unveiled: the first Android Wear smartwatch with a truly round display
After a bit of teasing, LG today revealed the G Watch R - the company's second Android Wear smartwatch, and the world's first to sport a perfectly round display (unlike Motorola’s Moto 360). The screen of the G Watch R is a 1.3-inch Plastic OLED (P-OLED) one with 320 x 320 pixels. LG says that this display provides “stunning image clarity” in any situation - including under bright sunlight.
Just like LG’s first Android Wear smartwatch, the G Watch R is IP67-certified, thus being dust- and water-resistant. It’ll offer several fitness apps, while also allowing users to monitor their heart rate thanks to a built-in PPG (photoplethysmography) sensor. Other features include a 1.2 GHz Snapdragon processor, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of internal memory, and a 410 mAh battery. A stainless steel frame, and an interchangeable calf skin leather strap complete the stylish picture.
