Android Wear 2015: Rose Gold Huawei Watch With Real 22K Gold Is Now Official, See Features & Price Here
The Rose Gold motif has been closely associated with high-end smartphones from the world's leading mobile brands. But now, it has expanded to wearables with the onset of the new Rose Gold Huawei Watch.
As advertised on Huawei's official online store, the Android Wear smartwatch features a 22K rose gold-plated stainless steel case. The extra shimmer sets you back $700, which is double the price of the standard Huawei Watch. For an extra $100, the newly-offered version will be fitted with a rose gold-plated stainless steel link band.
As far as its innards are concerned, the Rose Gold Huawei Watch features the same exact specs of the cheaper model. It's compatible with devices running on Android 4.3 or later, and iOS 8.2 or later. It has the same 1.4-inch circular AMOLED display, Qualcomm's four-core Snapdragon 1.2 GHz processor, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of native storage and 300 mAh battery.
The smartwatch is also IP67 certified. This means the device is dust and water-resistant up to one meter of water or a span of 30 minutes, as per GSM Arena.
Another Android Wear smartwatch on the news recently is the LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE. The Korean tech giant has announced that it has suspended the sales of the brand-new wearable. This was after unspecified hardware issues were found to be affecting the device's day-to-day performance.
Although LG is currently developing a fix for the problem, one representative told The Verge that there's still no set date for when the device will become available again. To recall, AT&T already launched its version of the Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE, while Verizon was supposed to release its version on Nov. 20. As of the moment, you can check out the smartwatch over at AT&T's website, but the device is listed as "out of stock."
AT&T will be offering refunds for those who have bought the device under its roof. Customers could also choose to swap it for another smartwatch instead.
The Watch Urbane 2nd Edition was being advertised as the first Android Wear smartwatch to feature cellular connectivity. It would have been compatible with AT&T's NumberSync, which lets owners sync their mobile numbers with their smartwatches. The pairing allows owners to take or receive calls directly from their smartwatch. NumberSync is scheduled to release in early 2016.
Wareable reported that Google's Android Wear is the first dedicated smartwatch system based on the Android OS for mobile devices. Android Wear carries various customization and interactive features. However, its major function is on time- and notification-telling.
