– Android Wear

for now, Google did not generate great expectations for the Android Wear in the I / O 2016. However, it is likely that the system for smart watches get news, given the pressure to the success of Apple Watch . Among the most eagerly awaited are the increased compatibility with iPhone and even a possible support phones with Windows 10 Mobile.
