Sources of Android Police US site yet spoken. And this time they revealed to him the existence of two new Android Wear watches, Angelfish codenamed Swordfish and that Google would prepare himself. Two very different connected watches which are expected to show the potential of Android Wear 2.0 for now shunned by other manufacturers.
This year Google so come out two Nexus smartphones – whose first images came out yesterday – but under two connected Android Wear watches. This is again the Android Police website which disseminates such information and wishes, he said, multiple and reliable sources. The US site brings credibility of 9/10 to these rumors and says he is certain that these watches exist and that Google is working well on it.
According to sources of Android Police, Google would work so on two connected in Android Wear watches. It is not yet known if it comes to Nexus products, but the release is expected “shortly after the announcement of the new Nexus smartphones.” At year end or early next year, so. Both watches have to Angelfish code name (a fish, Pterophyllum judging by Wikipedia) and Swordfish (Swordfish or French). The first is the more upscale with support for 4G and GPS while the second is simpler but also, it seems, more aesthetically worked. In any case, the watches are both round and screen does not look like the famous “flat tire” of the Moto 360.
Angelfish, most complete and most imposing
We start with Angelfish. This is the larger of the two watches. Android Police, and indicates that it is rather thick (14 mm thick at the widest) and its diameter is about 43.5 mm. It is therefore a big show, with very visible legs, a curved back to fit the shape of the wrist and a “sporty” look. Android Police, and says it looks like both a Moto 360 and LG Urbane LTE 2nd Edition. This watch would have three buttons, located to the right of the device: a central crown and two smaller share buttons either side of this central button
Finally Angelfish on the US site. says she would embark everything a connected watch is able to have GPS, support 4G, heart rate sensor, in short everything you need for it to be used without necessarily being connected to a smartphone.
Swordfish, one that builds on design
Swordfish is also a circular watch, but a little smaller. Its diameter would be about 42 mm for a thickness of 10.6 mm. Its design recalls the words of the Pebble Time Round, except that it would (obviously) much finer screen borders. This watch would have only one central button on the right side. A button that would look a lot like the Apple Watch. Swordfish finally would not support 4G, would have no GPS function and probably no heart rate sensor. Unlike Angelfish, it would however compatible with the attachment system bracelet MODE, Google has introduced recently.
Google Assistant and new watchfaces as main software news
Android Police source said that these last two watches will have Google Assistant and original software features. There is talk of any new watchfaces “that will enable faster access to notifications, information and control applications used daily” . In other words, they should be entitled to all the refinements of Android Wear 2.0, presented at length during the last Google I / O.

for now, no image of the two watches available, nor that any price or release date. With these two watches, one suspects that Google wants to revive the interest of users for connected watches in Android Wear. It must be said that this year, few manufacturers became interested and that Google is obligated to test beta of its new version of Android Wear watches on third party manufacturers. Not until the end of the year to see if this type of device actually will boost the interest of users for connected watches.
