Report: LG Watch Sport Will Be Priced At $349, First Watch To Come With Android Pay

Last week we reported the possible pricing details on one of the upcoming LG’s Android Wear watches, the Watch Style. Previous reports have shown that the Watch Style will sport a 1.2-inch 360 × 360 display, 512MB RAM, and 240mAh battery and only have Bluetooth for connectivity.

Now, according to a new report, we may have pricing details of the LG Watch Sport as well. As confirmed by AndroidPolice with their trusted sources, the LG Watch Sport will be priced at $349 in the US, which is $100 more compared to the LG Watch Style. Given how many extra functionalities does the Watch Sport bring over its smaller sibling, it’s hard not to see why the LG Watch is costlier than the Watch Style. The LG Watch Sport is said to be a bigger and more powerful of two watches as it packs in a 1.38-inch 480 × 480 resolution display, 786MB RAM, 430mAh battery, LTE connectivity, NFC, and a heart rate monitor. Rumors are also suggesting that the Watch Sport will be the first ever Android Wear watch to come with Android Pay support.

The LG Watch Style and Watch Sport are said to be developed by Google and LG in collaboration and will be the first to launch with the Android Wear 2.0 OS. Both watches are expected to be unveiled on February 9 along with Google’s Android Wear 2.0 update, so hopefully we won’t have to wait long to learn more about these Wear watches.
