Since Google announced the development of Android Wear 2.0, the guys at Google are doing worse and worse. Asus announced yesterday that its Zenwatch 2 and Zenwatch 3 terminals will receive Android Wear 2.0 from April, 11 months after its announcement. The final version of Android Wear 2.0, after many months of delay, was presented in early February, very late if Google's wearables platform wants to have a future in this new market. Currently the market is dominated by Apple Watch with watchOS, followed by Fitbit bracelets and in third position by Samsung with Tizen, proving once again that Google is doing very poorly with Android Wear and the major manufacturers are aware of it.
If Google does not put the batteries, in the end the few manufacturers that today still trust Android Wear, will be forced to leave this market, as Lenovo did with the Moto 360, or ally with Samsung to implement Tizen in their devices. Both the Gear S2 and Gear S3 are offering better performance and battery life than Android Wear-managed devices, so probably Some other manufacturer is clear that their next smartwatch will be managed by Tizen, something that will not be funny to Google, but it will be because of the sloppiness it has shown in the development of Android Wear 2.0.
The last manufacturer that has announced through Twitter the update of its devices to Android Wear 2.0 has been Fossil, an update that will begin to reach the company's compatible devices from the month of March. With Fossil, there are already two manufacturers that have announced the release date of the update, but we have the new smartwatches that LG presented together with the launch of Android Wear 2.0 at the beginning of February.
