Together with Google, LG presented the new Watch Style and Watch Sport smart watches, which are the first to be equipped with Google's new operating system for wearable devices, Android Wear 2.0, with which it aims to close the gap behind Apple watches. With Android Wear 2.0, smartwatches will be freed from the "yoke" of the smartphone.
Wear it a smart watch? In all probability not. Although they have been around for three years, they have yet to convince users. In the meantime, instead of 'the next big thing', they have become 'just another thing'. But that hasn't stopped tech companies from trying to sell them to you. If you're wearing a smartwatch, it most likely is Samsung Gear or Apple Watch. Google has been in this business since 2014, but its platform Android Wear the breakthrough failed. Perhaps its successor OS can do that Android Wear 2.0, which they are the first to receive LG's new smart watches LG Watch Style and LG Watch Sport, which Google helped develop.
Wear 2.0 has simple design, new features and, probably most importantly, you can watch with it it works independently of the Android device, so a smartphone will no longer be needed to use mobile applications. The OS brings improvements for those who are physically active a lot, small keyboard and allows us to respond to the most urgent within an hour.
