LG's upcoming smartwatch, the LG Watch Style has been leaked online, thanks to Evan Blass, aka @evleaks. The image shared by Blass on Twitter shows two sets of devices, showing the Silver and Rose Gold colour variants, with a metal case and removable leather straps. Additional details of the device was not revealed by Blass, but the wearable doesn’t seem to have a heart rate sensor, suggesting that the Watch Style may focus more on aesthetics. LG is also tipped to launch another wearable called the Watch Sport, which might feature a heart rate sensor. The device is expected launch on February 9, and is supposedly going to be one of two smartwatches to sport Google's Android Wear 2.0 at launch.
Google itsel had earlier said that Android Wear 2.0 will be launched on February 9, on two OEM branded smartwatches. The LG Watch Style and Watch Sport are expected to be the said smartwatches.
A report by Android Police suggests that the Watch Style may start at $249 (approx. Rs. 16,900), while the Watch Sport is expected to be the more expensive of the two variants. Previous reports have suggested that the Watch Sport may feature a 1.38-inch display, with a resolution of 480 x 480 pixels along with 768MB of RAM and a 430mAh battery. The Watch Style may have a smaller 1.2-inch 360 x 360 pixel display with 512MB RAM and a 240mAh battery. The new OS will offer support for standalone apps, as well as Android Pay.
