So what happened? The Telegraph reports the problem is related to the watch’s display. In all, it seems the  tch Urbane 2nd ition E should never have been released in the first place.

’The potential to reduce image quality’

told The Telegraph that the reason it withdrew its smartwatch from sale last week is because of a component “with the potential to reduce image quality on the device.” The South Korean manufacturer was afraid the faulty component would eventually affect user experience over time, which would have ultimately lead to subpar user reviews. went on: There’s no word on whether the tch Urbane 2nd ition E will go back on sale in time for tmas. y this matters: It’s likely only the hardcore Android faithful will notice the hiccup associated with this particular smartwatch release, but the failed product launch still puts in a tough spot. In an effort to beat its competitors to the phone-calls-on-a-ar-watch punch, it put a smartwatch on sale before it was truly ready— gained some ugly press in the process. It’s probably for the better that the device was recalled, though, because our first full day with the tch Urbane 2nd ition E was pretty disappointing.
