Burg 12

Because the square display is housed in an oval setting, the corners of the screen are slightly cut off.

There are two physical buttons on the left side of the watch. The top one is a combination Power/End button, while the one below it is an OK/Dial button. Sandwiched between the two is a covered micro USB port.

Although the Burg 12's silver build has a nice, premium feel, it's also well over half an inch thick, which makes the watch extremely bulky; I couldn't even bend my wrist while wearing it.

The back of the watch comes off to reveal microSD and SIM card slots. The watch comes with a tiny 512MB card (which can be expanded up to 16GB), as well as a SIM card with $25 of prepaid talk and text.

Perhaps my biggest problem with the Burg 12 is also its smallest feature: a stylus. A tiny, 1.8-inch collapsible stylus is stored in a compartment right beneath the buckle closure.

I prefer the round design of the Burg 12 (top) compared with the Samsung Gear 2, but it makes for a lot of wasted space around the display.

You can't quite tell from this photo, but the LG G Watch R (left) has a much higher-quality display than the Burg 12.
