Samsung Gear Live, the Android Wear Smartwatch, now live in the Play Store

The LG G Watch wasn’t the only Android Wear device that was slated to hit the Play Store today. The Samsung Gear Live was also said to be going live. Loks like Google followed through and put both devices in at the same time. Interestingly enough, the Gear Live is $30 less than the LG G watch and comes in at $199.

Samsung Gear Live

Spec wise you are looking at a similarly spec’d device.

  • Screen: 1.63” 320 x 320 SuperAMOLED (278 ppi)
  • Size: 37.9 x 56.4 x 8.9 mm
  • Weighs 59g
  • Battery: 300 mAh
  • 1.2 GHz processor (no mention if it is Qualcomm 400)
  • 512 RAM
  • Bluetooth 4.0 LE
  • 4GB internal storage
  • Hear Rate Monitor
  • IP67 water and dust resistant

Really, you lose out on 100 mAh of battery and gain a heart rate monitor and a better resolution screen. At least that is all I am seeing from the glancing look I have time to check out. Do you guys see any other differences? Either way, if you want to get an order placed they are available in just black and ship out July 8th. Head to the device section of the Play Store.Â
