ASUS announces Face the Future ZenWatch Face Design contest

Thanks to the good folks at ASUS Malaysia we managed to get some time with the international version (so it doesn't have the standard 3-pin adapter) of the upcoming ASUS ZenWatch 3. Featuring a round face with shiny gold bezel this Android Wear based smartwatch offers gesture-driven commands and a metallic water resistant body. The most interesting feature however, is the fact that it has the ability to playback music direct from the watch.

Most Android Wear smartwatches these days are round and don’t do much more than what Android Wear allows you to do. Granted, you can do a lot more than before but if you’ve already tried out and Android Wear smartwatch, chances are the experience is more or less the same for most devices. Standing out from the growing crowd of round smartwatches is the ASUS ZenWatch 2, which retains its thin, slim and sleek rectangular body with a curved glass touchscreen. Filled with a whole bunch of new gesture driven commands and priced well below RM1000, is the ASUS ZenWatch 2 worth your while? Find out in our full review of the ASUS ZenWatch 2 below.
