If we're honest, it's reasonable to assume that ASUS will announce a smartwatch on September 3rd. After all, if the rumors saying that the company's working on an Android Wear device aren't enough, then the pretty obvious teaser image should be. According to those pesky rumor-mongers, the unit will be priced between $99 and $149, making it the cheapest Google-approved wearable on the market. We've also heard, thanks to our own sources on the grapevine, that despite the lower price, the watch will use similar hardware to both the Gear Live and G Watch. The only concession apparently being in the battery life department, which will linger somewhere between the 300mAh on the Gear Live and the 400mAh found on the G Watch. Still, whatever the truth, there's only a fortnight to go before we'll find out for ourselves.

 

Hmmm interesting

So far from the teaser image I must say, ASUS has done a good job on design. Dunno if I would choose it over the Pebble Steel (I'm simple, I look at the time more often than anything else), but for the price it's a really good contender.

I bet this looks like a piece of plastic tat

 

I hope not though!

Looks like the Mac Pro to me...

Nah i'm guessing by the teaser image that it's at least an aluminium frame.

Well they have said they want it to be cheaper than the current smartwatches which are only $200 as it is!

I can't see how. Maybe because it's rounded but... nope. Don't see it.

Okay, from that angle I can see it.

I need a new watch after mine broke a while ago.  Hopefully the screen on it is comparable to the Samsung Gear line.
