Although an April LG LifeBand Touch UK release date has been confirmed, no pricing details or a specific launch date have been shared.

Set to be a direct rival to the Samsung Gear Fit and Nike Fuelband SE, the LG LifeBand Touch is a water resistant wrist band with an OLED display.

Capable of tracking your steps taken and calorie burn, among other metrics, the LifeBand can be paired with the headphones to get heart rate data direct to your wrist during a run.
