LG
Electronics (LG) will unveil its first all-metal luxury Android Wear
device, LG Watch Urbane, at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015. As its
name suggests, the smartwatch is designed for a sophisticated and
cosmopolitan wearer that delivers unparalleled technology and
performance. LG Watch Urbane is the perfect device for wearers looking
to add both style and high-tech flare to their everyday lives.
The
LG Watch Urbane follows closely in the footsteps of the LG G Watch R,
the first smartwatch with a full circular Plastic OLED (P-OLED) display,
which LG launched in October 2014. While the LG G Watch R was designed
with the active user in mind, the LG Watch Urbane is more formal with a
thinner profile making it perfect for either men or women. Resembling a
luxury timepiece, LG combined a classic design and innovative features
to add style and convenience to everyday life while raising the already
high standards set by its predecessor.
The
LG Watch Urbane is crafted around the same 1.3-inch full circle P-OLED
display as the LG G Watch R but features a narrower bezel that gives it
sleeker lines. The LG Watch Urbane has all of the hallmarks of a fine
watch, making it the perfect fashion accessory. Its stainless steel body
is available in polished silver and gold finish and is complemented by a
beautifully stitched natural leather strap for a more classic look. The
strap can be replaced with any 22mm wide band to suit the occasion or
the wearer’s mood. Powering all of this is an intuitive touch-based user
interface that makes the LG Watch Urbane compatible with smartphones
running Android 4.3 and above.
Like
the G Watch R, LG’s latest Android Wear device includes a
photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor that can measure a wearer’s heart rate
and average pulse during exercise. Always-On ambient mode shows the
time on the display at all times in dimmed mode, saving battery life.
“The
LG Watch Urbane’s classic design and smart features make it the perfect
smartwatch to complement our G Watch and G Watch R, which were designed
as more casual and active devices,” said Juno Cho, president and CEO of
LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company. “LG Watch Urbane is an
important part of our strategy to develop wearable devices that are worn
and viewed as everyday accessories, not electronic gadgets.”
Additional details including price will be announced in local markets at the time of availability.
