Are bad times for Android Wear. Makes some weeks them main manufacturers of smartwatches, between which find Huawei, LG and Motorola, announced that along what remained of year, not would launch any new device to the market. One of them main reasons that could have motivated this delay, was with almost all probability the decision of Google of delay the launch of Android Wear 2.0 to principles of the year that comes, a movement that logically harms to all them manufacturers that had the intention of launch a smartwatch with Android Wear, since not could offer any function that them differed of them models that not is updated to this great update of Android Wear.
But apparently, it seems that one of them, Motorola has decided to throw in the towel and as reported to The Verge the development Chief of global product of the mobile division of Motorola and Lenovo, Shakil Barkat “there isn’t enough pull in the market to launch a new smartwatch into the market, at least at this time”. Without Moto in circulation, Google runs out of one of their major partners of dance since Android Wear came to the market in the hands of the first generation 360 motorcycle. According to Barket “them wearables not have enough attractive at least for us, by what of time leave of launching new models, although this not means that in a future can return to the market”.
One of the main functions that will bring Android Wear 2.0 is the of trying to do more independent to the smartwatches of smartphones, adding features that allow us to control functions directly from our wrist, in addition to offering significant improvements in personalization and above all in the performance thereof. At the moment we don’t know if the rest of manufacturer will continue betting on Android Wear or whether will jump to Tizen, OS from Samsung, that although it has its limitations in terms of applications is concerned, it is showing agility, performance and consumption far superior to the Android Wear battery.
