Hot on the heels of Samsung announcing the details of its Gear Live, LG has spilled the goods on its own Android Wear-powered smartwatch.
After months of teasing, the LG G Watch will officially be put up for pre-order later today at a price of $229, which is $30 more than the Samsung Gear Live. In exchange for your hard-earned cash, you’ll receive a wristwatch with the following specs:
- 1.65-inch 280x280 IPS LCD screen
- 1.2GHz Snapdragon 400 processor
- 4GB storage
- 512MB RAM
- Android Wear (compatible with devices running Android 4.3 or higher)
- IP67 rated for dust and water resistance
- White Gold, Black Titan color options
- 400mAh battery
- 37.9 x 46.5 x 9.95mm
The LG G Watch will be available for pre-order in the U.S., Canada, U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Spain, South Korea and Japan. Shortly thereafter it’ll launch in 27 more markets, including Australia, Brazil, Mexico, New Zealand, Singapore and Russia.
