If Google started the I / O 2016 keynote talking about the virtues and benefits of virtual assistance it is because it is going to be one of the central axes of most of their products for years to come. After commenting on why we were going to relegate an assistant to a lot of daily tasks, he presented his Google Home, with which he emphasized a product that will use Google Assistant, its learning system that uses its excellent recognition of voice to provide the user with any type of information or action.
This Google Assistant will be one of the greatest qualities of the first two Android Wear smartwatches that is manufacturing the same Google. A leak has shown that these two Android Wear devices will be released sometime after the two Nexus phones announced for late summer. So there is the possibility that they also carry the Nexus brand on them. Two wearables of which one will be larger and with a more "sporty" tone, well packed with components such as LTE, GPS, heart rate sensor, and the other will be smaller and without the possibility of mobile data and GPS.

We also know that both watches will have a circular shape. One of them has been dubbed Angelfish and has quite a lot of similarities to the current Moto 360 and Urbane 2 from LG. A smartwatch with a visual tone to the «sport» very evident as recognized by the source in charge of supplying the information. It has three buttons and a watch face with a button located on the right side of the watch crown, while the other two circular buttons are at the top and bottom but in a smaller size.
This Angelfish smartwatch has a greater thickness, hence its greater capacity for LTE, GPS and heart rate sensor, with 14 millimeters and having enough space for an LTE-ready chip. The diameter of the watch is 43,5 millimeters. The color with which it will arrive will be dark gray, which would be called "titanium". By having all these capabilities in the GPS, LTE and heart rate sensor, it allows it to be a standalone Android Wear device. Something that is on par with Wear 2.0 announced at I / O 2016.
Swordfish
We go to the second smartwatch called Swordfish. This one could get closer more to what a Pebble Time is and it eliminates a larger screen and a different button layout than the other one manufactured by Google out of the equation. Although it will have similarities in design to be two smartwatches that could be called as brothers, but with their own distinctions.
Swordfish has a single center button on the right side of the body with a more delicate touch overall. According to the source, the button would have some similarities to the crown of the Apple Watch. A wearable smaller and thinner than Angelfish, with a diameter of 43 millimeters and a thickness of 10,6 millimeters. This one will be available in three colors: silver, titanium and rose gold. Here we can forget about LTE connectivity and GPSAlthough we will wait to see if the heart rate monitor will be present.
The two will present the Google Assistant integration with contextual alerts. Now we will have to see where they differ by having Google Assistant from the other smartwatches that are under Android Wear. We also know that Mountain View would be working on a new style of watch faces for these devices that would be characterized by faster access to notifications, information or media playback controls.
On the reason that has led Google to make your own smartwatches Surely the most accurate answer is that they want to control all aspects of the hardware to demonstrate the great capacity of Android Wear. These two wearables also agree with the news that we would see the first smartphone created by Google this year.
