LG G Watch R wifi confirmed for Q3!

[mxrider821]

I just picked up this watch today, I was doing research and came across this. I know some of you are wondering if we will have WiFi support and we will get it sooner than later! don't be looking for it with the new 5.1.1 update that just came out because this isn't included, we only a couple months or less and we'll have the WiFi feature... Just enjoy the new 5.1.1 update for now!


*Confirmed & Updated*
LG G Watch R update will enable Wi-Fi later this year

Install wifi feature now on the G watch R!

It's irritating they're doing away with it! The LG Urbane looks like ****. Why would I want to spend more money on that? And eBay and Amazon want a lot of money for it. I wish I had heard of it back when ATT was selling it for $99.

So my question is...will it be supported through updates since they're doing away with it? I'm worried if I get it it'll be stuck with no update in sight (kinda like what has happened to lots of smarthphones).

The LG g watch r is on the way out but I can say it's still a great choice. I have had the Zenwatch and the 360 and the g watch r is truly the best.

I still think the moto 360 is the best looking but I have had both. The G watch r is definitely better with performance and million times better in battery life too. And I do believe that the G watch will go all the way to update 5.2 and that will probably be the last update for the watch
