LG today presented the new round watch that will compete with the Motorola Moto 360, the LG G Watch R. It has just been presented on the same day that the Samsung Gear S has been presented. The pattern in the two launches has been that the price of these two smart watches has not been published, until now. And it is that, LG Germany has confirmed that the LG G Watch R will have a price of 299 euros.
299 euros for a LG G Watch R that only has as a differentiating characteristic having a round screen. Although this will have to be analyzed from different points of view. On the one hand, we are paying more for a watch that does not include anything additional to what the LG G Watch includes, since it has the same characteristics, except for the fact that it has a round screen, and that this is P-OLED.
However, it must also be taken into account that the design is, from my point of view, much better than that of the LG G Watch, with a very sporty appearance, and very similar to that of watches from famous brands with a much higher price. If we look at it from the point of view that it is a watch, and not just a smart watch, then not only is it not an expensive watch, but we would be talking about a cheap watch.
Of course, it will be necessary to compare it with its rivals in the market. Today there was talk again that the Motorola Moto 360 could have a final price of about $ 249, which could be 249 euros finally. The design of the Motorola Moto 360 is also of a high level, being a round watch, although its price would be cheaper. However, we will still have to wait for Motorola to confirm what the final price of the smartwatch is, something that It will take place on September 4.
