LG G Watch 2 reportedly gearing up for IFA launch


LG G Watch running on Android Wear went on sale on the Google Play Store in June. Now, a report is suggesting that LG is already making the next G watch that will likely be announced at the IFA 2014.

A new report from the Korean Times is revealing that LG is tentatively naming it as the LG G Watch 2. It is said to feature an OLED display a leap from the IPS LCD display found in the current G Watch.  In addition, the new watch will reportedly use a Qualcomm processor, but LG does have plans to use its own Odin processors in the future.

The source claims the watch as “a serious game changer” that will compete with Apple’s highly anticipated iWatch. Android Wear supports two form factors rectangular and circular. Since, LG already has a rectangular dial, the company can go for a round dial for the LG G Watch 2. The source also revealed that LG is planning on working with top watch makers for its upcoming watches. “LG Electronics is being approached by a lot of authoritative watchmakers for strategic collaboration”, said an LG official in the report.

Meanwhile, there is no word from LG regarding the smartwatch as of yet.
