The Asus Zenwatch, powered by Google's smartwatch optimized Android Wear operating system,  is now available on the Google Play Store in the US. The wearable features a 1.63 Inch AMOLED display with a 320×320 resolution, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 1.2GHz CPU and 512MB of RAM.

It has an IP55 water resistance rating and a bio-sensor for health tracking. Unlike the Moto 360, the Zenwatch uses a square display, which is rather typical of smartwatches these days, It will come with a $199 price tag as well.

For those of you who are wondering about Android Wear, it looks a lot like Google Now, with information cards appearing on the main display, which you can swipe through for different bits of information. So far, there is only a handful of Android Wear smartwatches on the market, including options from Asus, Samsung, LG and Motorola.

In order to use an Android Wear watch, users will need a phone running Android 4.3 or higher, it is also likely that users will need to charge their watches at the end of every day, just like their phones.

KitGuru Says: The Asus Zenwatch is one of the nicer looking options so far, although personally, I think I still prefer the circular face of the Moto 360. What do you guys think of the Zenwatch? Are you interested in wearable tech at all?
