The next iteration to Android Wear with version 2.0 will be available for all supported smartwatches in the coming weeks, Google has announced.
LG has associated itself with Google to design a new range of Android Wear 2.0 wearables to cater to the demanding younger generation.
Android Wear 2.0 makes the wearable devices truly standalone. One interesting thing to note is that Android Wear 2.0 comes with a keyboard to type your responses on. This update is a welcome improvement and will give the much needed boost to the stagnant smartwatch industry. Google first showcased the software at Google I/O past year.

The process to change Watch Faces is as easy as flicking left or right instead of long pressing on the screen to go to a screen where you can change the watch faces.
Check out the video at the top of the page for an in-depth preview of Android Wear 2.0. One can also draw emojis and reply quickly to texts with "Smart Reply" feature. You'll be able to, hopefully, reply to messages and get directions simply by saying "OK Google".
Google didn't say if the limitation will be permanent, but added that payment networks are very strict when it comes to data security and an unlocked bootloader could represent a vulnerability for the user. Google is calling it "the most significant Android Wear update since its launch". The Sport features two additional physical buttons that activate Android Pay and Google Fit. This of course doesn't mean that all apps will work standalone. The Sport model comes with NFC for payments, dedicated buttons for Google Fit and Android Pay, and is available in the U.S. at AT&T, Verizon and the Google Store, from 10 February. With Google Fit, users can reach their fitness goals through activities tracking, strength training and coaching.
