After keeping expectant smartwatch owners waiting for months, Google has finally rolled out its new Android Wear 2.0 update.
The sizeable patch, which is far more than a mere lick of paint, brings a number of major new features to the Google-friendly line of Apple Watch rivalling wearables.
Chief among these is the smartwatch- friendly take on the new Google Assistant, a voice-activated digital assistant much like Siri or Amazon's Alexa.
Originally introduced on the brilliant Google Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones, Google Assistant can be summonsed on the watches by holding the power button and saying "OK, Google."
Once activated, it can be used to reply to messages, make searches, set reminders and even ask for directions.
