The long awaited smart watches has been released this week. The two watches built on Android wear platform. One is from LG, the G watch, and the other is from its arch Korean peninsular rival, Samsung, the Gear live.
 Android wear does two things, it moves app notifications to the watch’s face, and it puts Google Now’s voice-powered search capabilities on your wrist.

Both runs on the same platform and more or less same software. Using these watches one can check calendar, set remainders, set timers, send emails, Google search and even get map directions. Also can dictate a note and that will show up in Google Keep. Both watches need to charge every day, just like phone. And that means cradling it, neither watch can power up directly from a USB cable.

The Samsung Gear Live costs $200, got a better-looking body, it’s more comfortable, and has a better display to boot. It can detect your heart rate on command, the LG cannot. The Samsung watch is the clear winner on overall build quality. It has a slightly curved backside, and the band connection is angled, both of which means that it rests more comfortably on your wrists than the LG. Its screen is brighter than LG.

It has a nice cradles and covers the complete backside of the watch and feels rather hefty and substantial. Better yet, it connects magnetically to the back of the watch to charge the wrist computer. 
 

 Besides all its pros and cons they are pretty amazing and are the first truly useful smart watches to hit the market.
