The LG G Watch Urbane is a luxurious all-metal Android Wear smart watch set to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress 2015.
This smartwatch is equipped with a 1.3-inch full circle P-OLED display albeit with an arrow bezel that gives it sleeker lines and an all-round streamlined appearance. The device's stainless steel body is available in either polished gold or silver finishes and is complemented by a classy stitched natural leather strap. A touch user interface makes it easy to access smart features, and the device is compatible with phones running Android 4.3 and up.
Many people think of smart watches as unseemly, cumbersome devices thrown onto a wrist strap but the LG G Watch Urbane looks as great as any regular luxury watch, proving that technological function and aesthetic sophistication can certainly go hand in hand.
