LG G Watch R

As the Apple Watch goes up for pre-order (and in-store showings) around the world, perhaps you're wondering if any of the existing smartwatches are worth a look? We've been following this space closely for the last couple of years, and have rounded up the best of the pre-Apple Watch smartwatches.

The silly season is well and truly upon us again and with it comes the challenge of selecting a suitable gift for tech-loving friends and family. The options are a little overwhelming, but Gizmag's editorial team has sifted through 2014's top product offerings in an effort to help.

LG and Asus made two of the best-looking smartwatches of 2014. Let's take a quick look at the two fashionable Android Wear watches, the LG G Watch R and Asus ZenWatch.

If you're looking for a round-faced smartwatch this holiday season, you have two sharp-looking Android Wear watches to choose from. We have the Moto 360 and LG G Watch R in house right now, and have a few thoughts (and plenty of pictures) to help you decide.

We recently took a look at two of the most stylish smartwatches around, the Moto 360 and Asus ZenWatch, but there's one more to add to that list. Read on, for Gizmag's review of the round-faced LG G Watch R.

Wearables still aren't quite mainstream products, but smartwatches did grow in popularity – not to mention quality – this year. Are you trying to pick one for the holidays? Join Gizmag, as we compare six of the best smartwatches you can buy today.

Both Asus and LG’s new smartwatches are designed to appeal to analog watch lovers, but they go about it in a very different way. While the ZenWatch focuses on a luxury build and premium feel, the G Watch R attempts to emulate a traditional time piece, with a circular display and classic looks.

We get the sense that the first Android Wear watches haven't exactly set the world on fire. But the hype surrounding the first two round-faced Wear watches is a different story. Join Gizmag, as we compare the features and specs of the circular Moto 360 and LG G Watch R.

LG’s G Watch R opts for a traditional, circular look rather than the square-faced designs we’ve seen in other early Android Wear smartwatches. The wearable is at the forefront of LG’s offering at IFA, and we took the opportunity to take a closer, hands-on look at the hotly anticipated smartwatch.
