LG Watch Sport: Break Free From Phones

Assumed to be released on March 23, 2017 is the LG Watch Sport Android Wear Smartwatch. If you have already read some articles out there this watch has some bittersweet reviews. As a owner of the the LG Urbane 2nd Edition on AT&T this watch is a worthy successor. The LG Watch Sport adds the new Android Wear 2.0 operating system, better integration with Google Fit, Google Assistant, and the sought out Android Pay functionality. The Watch also Features 4GB ram and 1.38″ full circle P-OLED screen like its predecessor the LG  Urbane 2nd Edition.  The most impressive improvement is the move from LG proprietary prong charging cable to Wireless charging (you can see a picture of the new dock in the below slideshow). You will be able to purchase the LG Watch Sport though the Google Store, Verizon, and AT&T.
