I know that Google announced LG’s new Android Wear smartwatches hours ago and that most of you don’t seem interested in either, but we thought you might at least like to look at the official specs for each. Below, you’ll find the table we put together for all of the big device launches to break it all down for you in the simplest terms.
As a recap, the LG Watch Sport is the bigger of the two with the extra big specs list. It has a 1.38-inch circular POLED display, Snapdragon Wear processor, 768MB RAM, 4GB storage, LTE, NFC, GPS, heart rate sensor, three buttons, Android Wear 2.0, and a big ass 45mm case. It’s made of brushed 316L steel and comes in blue or titanium.
The LG Watch Style is similar in that it has a 1.20-inch circular POLED display, Snapdragon Wear processor, 4GB storage, and Android Wear 2.0, but that’s about where the similarities end. This watch doesn’t have LTE or NFC or GPS or a heart rate sensor. It does have a smaller 42mm case, though, with interchangeable bands and case colors of titanium, silver, and rose gold.
Both watches go up for sale on February 10.
