This round Apple Watch concept may suit the UI better than the real device

The impressive amount of attention that Motorola’s Moto 360 and LG’s G Watch R are receiving is clearly a sign that a lot of people like round smartwatches better than square ones (perhaps due to the fact that most classic wrist watches are round). This being said, we’re thinking that some Apple fans wished the iWatchWatch was round. But it just isn’t, instead offering a rectangular display. That, however, didn’t stop Korean fan Alcion from making a round Apple Watch concept.

As you may know, Apple introduced a brand new iOS UI for its Watch - one that makes app icons round (and very small). Well, the round Watch concept that we mentioned above may suit this UI better than Apple’s real device. So maybe - just maybe - some of Apple’s next-generation Watches will have round displays. Of course, until next-generations arrive, we still have to wait quite a few months before the first Apple Watch hits the market (sometime in early 2015).

Take a look at the round Apple Watch concept below and let us know if you like it more than the real thing.
