The Moto 360 was the lone Android Wear smartwatch with a round display available on Google Play until today. With the LG G Watch R making its debut in the U.S., it now has a little bit of competition.
With a matte black stainless steel bezel, a leather strap, and a fully circular screen that’s the first of its kind, the LG G Watch R combines the timeless design of a traditional watch with the sensor-rich experience of Android Wear. It also includes a range of watch face styles that display beautifully on its OLED screen.
