This is what Google's Android Wear 2.0 smartwatches might look like

If they're real, they're not bad looking at all.

We keep hearing more and more about Google's two upcoming Android Wear 2.0 smartwatches as we inch closer towards Feb. 9, which is when the new smartwatch software is expected to drop.

And now we might know what they look like. TechnoBuffalo got its hands on what it strongly believes are images of Google's two unannounced smartwatches.

As you can see in the image below, the smartwatches line up perfectly with the specification leaks from previous reports.

The larger "LG Watch Sport" appears to be the sportier, more rugged version with a "digital crown" and two pusher buttons above and below it. The smaller "LG Watch Style" is more on the fashionable side and only has a single digital crown.

The digital crown is said to be similar to the Apple Watch's and will be crucial for navigation.

The small, semi-blurry images don't really provide details beyond the smartwatch's external designs; it's still impossible to tell how well they fit on the wrist until someone tries them on.

A recent VentureBeat report says the Watch Sport will have a larger 1.8-inch round screen compared to the Watch Style's 1.2-inch display. From the looks of the leaked images, the round displays will be fully round -- not the "flat tire" display seen on the Moto 360 and other Android Wear designs, with a chunk taken out of the bottom of the circle.

The Watch Sport will also be slightly thicker than the Apple Watch Series 2 and the Samsung Gear S3 in order to fit in a 4G LTE antenna, GPS, NFC, a heart-rate monitor and 4GB of storage. Compared to the Watch Sport, the Watch Style is said to have a smaller battery, too.

Google's also expected to play up some kind of Google Assistant support and weatherproofing for both smartwatches as well as interchangeable bands (perhaps only on the Watch Style).

With the delay Android Wear 2.0 until this year and most Android Wear smartwatch makers taking an indefinite break, it'll be interesting to see how Google courts customers with its new smartwatches. Who knows: maybe the Assistant and the digital crown knock-off, or even the pricing, will be compelling enough reasons to buy one of the new wearables. We should find out soon enough.
