The LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition is the first smartwatch to have an integrated cellular radio and the capabilities to act as a standalone device.

LG has relaunched its Watch Urbane 2nd Edition, after pulling it from shelves before the 2015 holiday season due to a hardware problem.

Now, the smartwatch has a new name - the LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE - and is available for preorder from AT&T and Verizon. It is the first smartwatch to have an integrated cellular radio and the capabilities to act as a standalone device, which could prove attractive to business customers or those looking to stay constantly connected.

The LG smartwatch has an attractive, 348ppi P-OLED display and a hypoallergenic elastomer band. Verizon customers can snag one for $449.99 with a two-year contract or $499.99 without one. AT&T customers can get theirs for $199.99 with a two-year contract or $359.99 contract-free.
