The LG G Watch R already looked good, but the LG Watch Urbane looks even better. That's important, since appearance is really the only thing that sets the two watches apart. The Urbane has a stainless steel finish and a leather strap for that expensive, business-chic look.

Classic design; Sharp screen

Expensive; Bulky; Stiff leather strap; Android Wear still underwhelms despite 5.1 update

The LG Watch Urbane is the South Korean company's third attempt at a smartwatch, following in the footsteps of the G Watch and G Watch R . With the Urbane, LG has tried to create a classic-style watch that wouldn't look out of place in formal situations.

Sharp; round display; Metal body

Chunky; tacky design; Poor battery life; Limited app functionality; Questionable heart rate sensor

This watch it the best build you can get, it feels and looks much better on the wrist than anything else. It's smooth operation only cements it's position as a top smartwatch. For those with an iPhone who can't find wifi, it's because of Apple, not LG.

The LG Urbane is the first smartwatch I bought July 2015 direct from Google. I use my Urbane to check notifications, send and reply to messages using voice dictation, schedule appointments through voice dictation, control currently playing music on my phone, create reminders and check train and bus...

The LG Urbane is one of the bolder Android Wear watches, and it currently sells for less than the self-appointed style guru Huawei Watch. Not everyone's going to like the look, though. It's a bit bulky and a bit flash.

Bold look; Decent quality construction; Always-on screen option

Poor heart rate tracker; Chunky and unsubtle design; 1.5 day battery life is so-so

I bought it 2 years ago as my first smartwatch. Thankfully it was amongst the first watches to be updated to android 2.0. It looks good and has all the functionality of any android watch you can have. It's just the looks of the watch which are different.

Say goodbye to smartphone separation anxiety. With its own LTE radio onboard, the LG Watch Urbane LTE ($500 full price on Verizon; $450 with two-year plan; $200 with two-year plan on AT&T) promises to unleash you from your smartphone and still let you stay connected by delivering pertinent alerts to...

LTE connectivity for freedom from phone; Solid fitness tracking tool; Android Wear improvements

Bulky design; Relatively short battery life; Limited phone compatibility; Expensive

At $349 dollars in the Google Store, it is the most expensive Android Wear device, dethroning its predecessor (or almost twin sibling), the LG G Watch R, which was also the most expensive product, at $299 (and so was the G Watch before that).

Wearables are personal. Putting a smartwatch on your wrist is like making a statement - I'm cutting edge and I'm stylish. That's the reason why smartwatches have evolved from square displays made out of plastic to stylish timepieces crafted from polished steel and glass.

A lot of companies are really investing heavily into wearables and LG is no exception. They already made inroads into this market with their first two smart watches: the LG G Watch and the LG G Watch R. Quite recently they announced a new one called the LG G Watch Urbane .
