Engadget earlier reported the news.
LG didn’t provide any details on the device, but an image in the Engadget report shows the device with flight times. The G Watch will work with voice commands and will come to market sometime in the second quarter, LG said.
Google on Tuesday announced Android Wear. The platform is a modified version of Android designed specifically for wearable devices. Google will first focus on smartwatches, but expects Android Wear to work on other devices. Google also announced on Tuesday that LG will be one of its partners on Android Wear.
CNET previously reported that Google was planning to launch a smartwatch-focused operating system this month. CNET also noted in that report that LG would show off a smartwatch — presumably the G Watch — at Google’s I/O developer conference.
