When is Android Wear 2.0 coming to my smartwatch?

Google is in the midst of rolling out Android Wear 2.0 to many smartwatches on the market.

It has released three major updates to Android Wear in the past two years. In Android Wear 2.0, you get a design overhaul, standalone apps, improvements to watch faces, messaging, fitness and a whole lot more.

Information on when updates will land on existing devices has been in short supply, although many now have the new software.

So here’s as much information as we can find on exactly what watches already have it and when others might get AW2.0.

Android Wear 2.0: Release date

Google announced last spring that its wearables OS would soon get a massive update, in the form of Android Wear 2.0. The official announcement of Android Wear 2.0 was on 8 February 2017, launched alongside the LG Watch Sport and the LG Watch Style.

For existing devices, Google started releasing the software to manufacturers on 15 February. It needed to be tested by individual companies before being sent as an over-the-air update, hence the delay to your specific device.

The following devices have been confirmed as either having the update or soon to get it. We’re updating the details as companies tell us more.

Android Wear 2.0: Asus

Asus said that the Android Wear 2.0 update will arrive on the following devices:

• Asus ZenWatch 2
• Asus ZenWatch 3

True to its word, the update started to roll out to the ZenWatch 3 in mid-May. We’re still waiting on details for the ZenWatch 2, however.

Android Wear 2.0: Huawei

Huawei Watch users running the Android Wear 2.0 preview have reported they’re getting the full update to their device, which means the over-the-air update for everyone else should also be available now.

Android Wear 2.0: Sony

After much speculation of “will it, won’t it?”, Sony has confirmed that Android Wear 2.0 will not be made available for the Sony Smartwatch 3. On the Smartwatch 3’s product page, it says it can only support up to Android Wear 1.5.

If you’re a Smartwatch 3 owner and were hoping for Android Wear 2.0, you can sign a petition to try and convince Sony and Google to change their minds.
