LG introduces World’s First 4G LTE smart watch

Early last week, LG had announced its premium Urbane smart watch that comes with a circular display and an upmarket all-metal design. Ahead of MWC 2015, they have just announced an upgraded version that comes with 4G LTE connectivity.

At first glance, it looks like a direct competitor to the Samsung Gear S and it even supports high quality VoLTE calls (Voice over LTE). To last longer on your wrist, the Urbane LTE comes with a 700mAh capacity unit (Standard Urbane: 410mAh), which is the largest for a smart watch but LG didn’t mention any battery life ratings. On top of that, LG has also included NFC which allows mobile payment without the need of taking out your smart phone from your pocket.

Design wise, it looks like a standard Urbane but it gets additional 2 buttons which is shown above. Like the original, it is water resistant with IP67, which is good enough to submerge up to 1 metre depth for 30 minutes. The Urbane 4G LTE will be running on their own proprietary LG wearable OS and it will be compatible with all Android smart phones running version 4.4 and above.

Hopefully we can get a hands-on with the new watch at the LG booth next week.
