Samsung and LG are among the first companies to ship the new smartwatches running Android Wear, a new version of Google’s operating system for wrist watches. Although, we heard from Google a few months ago about Android Wear, now consumers will finally be able to get their hands on the new form factor of wearable wrist watches.

While both models coming from Samsung and LG look good, the Motorola Moto 360 is by far the best we have seen making use of the circular screen, so you may want to hold off until it becomes available. With Google finally ready to ship Android Wear, now I wonder how long will it take for Microsoft and Apple to follow. All content on this site is provided with no warranties, express or implied.
