Hands on: LG Watch W7 review

The hybrid smartwatch has mechanical dials over a digital display

Classic design with distinctive mechanical look ; A good pick for those averse to all-digital watches ; No bloatware

Pricey without the toys – you're paying for style ; No heartbeat sensor ; LG apps are pretty basic

A pricey but handsome, no-frills smartwatch with a unique analog spin.

LG Watch W7 review: two hands too many

A unique design doesn't make LG's latest smartwatch a winner.

Watch-like appearance ; Can easily read the time outdoors ; Battery lasts through a day without issue

Thick, chunky design ; No GPS, NFC, or heart rate monitoring ; Analog hands cause interface limitations and annoyances

The LG Watch W7 is a unique Wear OS watch that has analog hands in addition to the usual touchscreen. But even though it stands out from the crowd with those analog hands, it lacks many other features that smartwatch users are accustomed to having.

LG Watch W7 review: A smartwatch that shouldn't be ignored

If we're to listen to complaints about Wear OS, the one thing everybody agrees on is that OEMs should try new things. That's why it's interesting to see

Design ; The most watch-like smartwatch we've seen in the Wear lineup. ; Hands ; Current time is 100% glanceable and they bring back the visual appeal of classic watches ; Battery life ; 2 days with average use.

Hardware ; Wear 2100 chipset is old. ; Missing hardware ; Ambient light, heart rate, NFC, LTE, dedicated GPS, and a speaker ; Hands (again) ; They get in the way. A lot...

LG Watch W7 Review: This Ain’t It, Chief

LG Watch W7 Review. I recall not long ago when Kellen and I would discuss the potential for hybrid Wear OS smartwatches. You see, both of us prefer traditional timepieces over smartwatches in terms of everyday wear, but we'd still love a watch that is...
