New LG Android Wear watches pass through the FCC

With the announcement of Android Wear 2.0 coming, it makes sense for manufacturers to start peddling new hardware. LG looks like it has four smartwatches coming up, with three of them passing through FCC recently. The four smartwatches are rumoured to be named the LG Watch Style, Watch Pro, Watch Force, and Watch Sole. For now, the ones that passed through the FCC carry the model numbers W270, W280, and W281. The W280 has GSM capabilities, which is similar to the Watch Urbane 2nd Edition that LG launched last year. It also has carrier models: LG-W280A and LG-W280V. It’ll also feature wireless charging capabilities. As for the W270, it’ll be a Wi-Fi-only model.

According to recent rumours, these watches might come with Qualcomm processors, IP67 certification for dust and water resistance, and looks similar to the Urbane 2 with a stainless steel build. There isn’t that much info on the W281 but it looks to be an LTE model, too. We can’t say yet when these wearables will make it to the market but having them go through FCC might speed things along.
