LG Watch Urbane review: a premium watch that falls short of greatness

 

The Watch Urbane is LG's best stab at an Android Wear smartwatch to date, and those of you with beefy wrists will especially enjoy its broad, slab-like construction, not to mention its mostly premium look. Thing is, the best parts of the Urbane...

Improved low-power watch faces ; First to get Google's Android Wear improvements ; Solid battery life ; Smooth performance

Clumsy, ostentatious design ; It's the most expensive Wear watch ; No ambient light sensor

The Urbane is a clear (and mostly thoughtful) improvement) over LG's last two watches, and stands right up alongside the rest of the Android Wear greats. In fact, the blend of LG's hardware and Google's updated software makes the Watch Urbane the most...

LG launches gold and leather Urbane Luxe smartwatch for late October ship date

 

Elements in 23-carat gold and a stylized leather strap hike up the price on this premium Android wearable.

LG Watch Urbane review: Big, bulky, and boring

 

The Watch Urbane is too pedestrian to be the high-style watch the Android Wear platform needs.

Bright display ; First to ship with Android Wear 5.1

Bulky and heavy ; No ambient light sensor

This metal version of the G Watch R tries, and fails, to bring high-class design to Android Wear. Its average performance isn't worth the high price.

LG Watch Urbane

 

The LG Watch Urbane is the most luxuriously crafted Android Wear smartwatch yet, but it's a tough sell for the price.

Classic design. Sharp screen.

Expensive. Bulky. Stiff leather strap. Android Wear still underwhelms despite 5.1 update.

Conclusions With the Apple Watch now available, our standards for smartwatches have increased. Google's Android Wear OS is in the best position to offer an alternative to Apple's iOS-centric juggernaut, but the LG Watch Urbane, even with its upgraded...

LG Watch Urbane reviewed: The dressiest new smartwatch

 

It's round, it's metal, and it's got the looks. It all comes down to this: is Android Wear good enough?

Crisp, classic design; fully round, beautiful OLED display; latest Android Wear support; Wi-Fi antenna connects to phone across different Wi-Fi networks; decent battery life (for Android Wear).

Big design won't appeal to many wrists; Android Wear software still doesn't feel all that smooth to use; Wi-Fi connectivity spotty at times; watch is expensive compared to other Android Wear options.

The LG Watch Urbane is the best-looking Android Wear smartwatch and adds Wi-Fi-to-phone connectivity, but it doesn't offer all that much more than previous Android Wear watch models.

LG Watch Urbane review: the newest Android OS in a big, shiny package

 

In the three-odd months since I last reviewed an Android Wear smartwatch, the platform has actually grown on me. A big reason is that Google has shipped a new version of the software that isn't so...

Latest Android Wear software ; Decent battery life ; Always-on screen

It's just really, really big ; Divisive design ; Expensive

LG Watch Urbane Review – All that glitters isn’t gold

 

You can understand why Android enthusiasts might be resentful of the Apple Watch. Android Wear has been around long enough for manufacturers like LG to release several generations of smartwatch, but listen to some and you'd be excused for thinking...

I’m all for more choice in smartwatches, and designs that look more grown-up than geeky can only increase the appeal among those who might like the convenience features but not if they have to wear a geeky toy to get them. Google continues to iterate...
