Just two months after its first smartwatch was unveiled, reports from Korean shores indicate that the smartphone maker LG is all set to release the next in line, LG G Watch 2.
LG is expected to take the wraps off the new smartwatch in September at the IFA in Berlin. Pointing to one of its resources, The Korea Times said that the watch will be a “serious game changer.”
The G Watch 2 will run Android Wear OS and have an AMOLED display instead of its predecessor’s IPS LCD display. There’s no mention about whether or not it will have a squarish design as the previous LG G watch.
According to the report, the new smartwatch will pack a Qualcomm processor. With the LG G3 smartphone in the markets, there aren’t any high-end announcements expected and the company is also speculated to have reserved the IFA stage for the upcoming smartwatch.
While there isn’t any official word about the smartwatch as of now, LG in response to Android Police’s query said that the company will continue to support the “Android Wear platform beyond G watch,” noting that “no details of future Android Wear products” have been confirmed.
