The ASUS ZenWatch 2 presents a new wave of Android Wear watch. While it still runs the same software as the rest of the Android Wear smartwatches out today, it begins to differentiate itself.

Asus might be sitting on the best value smartwatch on the market. The ZenWatch 2 has pretty much the same hardware as Moto 360 (2015), but it's much more affordable. While the Taiwanese manufacturer's smartphone designs leave some disappointed, the ZenWatch 2 manages to maintain the low price...

We have seen an influx of premium smartwatches this summer from Apple, LG and Huawei, among others, but Asus believes a nice smartwatch doesn't have to cost you an arm and a leg. The company's new ZenWatch 2 is both stylish and affordable. Asus on Wednesday announced at the IFA trade show in Berlin that the Android Wear-powered watch will arrive in October with a starting price of €149 (converted to £110 for the UK) in Europe.

The new Android Wear-powered ZenWatch 2 will come in two sizes -- 49mm and 45mm -- and work on both iPhone and Android smartphones.
