About a week ago, LG launched its first wearable and it is called the G Watch. On the other hand, Samsung launched the latest Galaxy Gear Live. Both smartwatches have since been added on the Google Play store but which is better?
In terms of looks, the G Watch is truly a better looking device of than the Gear Live. However, it is amazing on how the latter has a premium metal finish, which is really rare from Samsung.
The G Watch is powered by a 400mAh battery that can keep it running for about 2 days. This is superior to the Gear Live, which has a smaller 300mAh battery.
Both devices run on the Android Wear OS and are superb in most ways. Despite that fact, it is the Gear Live which is outstanding as it comes with more functions and features to offer. Among them is the heart rate monitor, which is truly useful when doing some exercise.
Then again, the design of the Gear Live has been totally disappointing. The fact that Samsung opted for a clip-on charger is a major turnoff and proves to be a hassle for the users. In spite of that, the Samsung Gear Live is still a better and cheaper device than the LG G Watch.
