LG releases new trailer for the LG G Watch R that contains really weird CGI

The Moto 360 may have been the smartwatch to watch the last few weeks, but if there’s one device that can challenge it in the short term, I believe it’s the LG G Watch R. LG‘s take on a circular Android Wear smartwatch looks much more like a traditional watch than the Moto 360, and as a result, has the opportunity to have much more mainstream appeal. LG has made quite a few emotive trailers before and after the device’s launch, and I just got an email about their latest trailer which shows off the G Watch R’s features. In short, it’s weird, but I’ll let you form your own opinions about it:

I’m all for CGI action and trailers, but why couldn’t they just do that with a real person? Anyway, back to the watch. Most of the features shown are more products of the Android Wear operating system rather than the G Watch R itself, but the features of note that others might not have include a fitness chronograph, hiking meter chronograph, world clock chronograph and water and dust resistance. It definitely looks like the G Watch R is geared more towards the burgeoning fitness sector of the market while still offering a more familiar, ‘normal’ watch experience.

Enough of what I think – what are your thoughts on the LG G Watch R and its new trailer? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
