LG, Huawei, and Motorola won't release any Android Wear smartwatches before the end of 2016

14 September, 2016
Aside from Asus, which announced the ZenWatch 3 at IFA, it looks like no other Android phone makers are releasing any new Android Wear smartwatches in the remainder of this year. At least not LG, Huawei, and Motorola. All three companies have confirmed as much.

Anonymous, 15 Sep 2016Swiss timepieces age like wine, smartwatches age like milk. Yep. Swiss watches age like wine, they turn into vinegar - mostly inaccurate, mostly with poor warranties and sometimes gaudy (Rolex).... LOL.

I'd rather wear a smart watch or a fitness watch.

But smartwatches also inform you of messages, appointments, news facts, in future will be able to take photos and have calls while a Swiss watch will only inform you about time. The new generation will go for smartwatches and give the Swiss watches to museums as a relic of the past.

                Make sense. Android wear is not as app focus as Watch OS, so it's not like there's an urgent need for better hardware right away. When I used my 1st gen Moto 360, it clearly needs something a tad faster and better battery life. But on my 2nd gen one, I don't see why I would need to upgrade as the speed and battery life issues have been pretty much taken care of.
