After more than two-and-a-half years on the market and many minor updates, Google's Android Wear platform is finally getting its first major overhaul: Android Wear 2.0. To celebrate, Google and LG have teamed up to create a pair of smartwatches, the LG Watch Sport and LG Watch Style, as the flagship Android Wear 2.0 devices. The Style is a $250 smartwatch that aims to be as thin as possible (so much so that it doesn't even have a heart rate sensor) but the bigger, more expensive LG Watch Sport is the more interesting of the two.
The $350 Sport packs almost every radio you'd find in a smartphone—LTE, NFC, GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth. LTE gives it independent access to the Internet, so messages and notifications arrive no matter where you are. NFC makes this the first watch to support Android Pay, so you can walk into a store without a smartphone or wallet, tap on the terminal, and be on your way. GPS means you can leave the house and still have access to Google Maps and run tracking, and with a pair of Bluetooth headphones, you can bring some music along on your jog.
