$500 for outdoor Android fun

Casio is joining some big watch names including TAG Heuer and Fossil and it is ready to launch its Casio Smart Outdoor Watch WSD-F10 Android Wear watch.

Appearing on a wrist next to you

Android wear has been going through many changes and the Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) is set to appear next.

Commoditised Android Wear coming soon

Remember Mlais? The Hong Kong smartphone startup is back with its first Android Wear watch, based on MediaTek’s new MT2601 platform. 

$99 for first gen square, $199 for round G Watch R

Competition in the Android Wear segment is heating up, which is good news for consumers, as there are some nice deals to be had. 

Free up Android Wear

Huawei has called for Google to free up its Android Wear software and allow it to be more customisable. 

Factory reset of the watch helps 

Apple has finally launched the Apple Wath and all of a sudden the world will be crazy about smartwatches. This actually plays quite well for Google, as there is no doubt that the sales of Android Wear devices will spike as well. 

Spec unknown, but the Huawei Watch is a looker

Look out Moto and LG, you no longer have a monopoly on good looking, round smartwatches – thanks to the guys and gals at Huawei. 

700 mAh battery, VoLTE meets fancy design

LG is obviously very serious about smartwatches, as it is about to announce its fourth watch, but this one is not based on Google's Android Wear operating system. 

Promises better battery life, loads of features

Broadcom has announced a new smartwatch platform, designed to cut the power consumption in Android Wear devices. 

New MT2601 SoC inside

MediaTek recently showed off a number of smartwatch designs, including models designed for the tiny MT2502 Aster process, and some Android Wear prototypes.
