as what everyone I'm Taylor with PocketNow and we're here at CES at the LG booth taking a look at the new LG life band touch so basically this is the LG's take on the new wearable the fitness tracker that has been kind of the the hot thing for the next year or so this is very similar to everything we've seen it's got a OLED display on it here and it's actually touched it as the name suggests but you can swipe through menus here this button is kind of like your selector for different menus and you can swipe through the menus to get to different things I accidentally touch that instead of swipe so we're starting a timer for our workout here and to get through that we can actually top tap it and hit stop to stop or we can resume it by tapping again and you can swipe left here or to the right here to get to your different menus we're different things so your heart rate which it actually reads your heart rate through and earbud that it connects their Bluetooth this is your distance traveled and you can tap through these different things to get to goals if we can swipe through here seems to be a little sensitive but if we swipe through you can tap to get different goals on different types of workouts and things are doing like steps that tracks your steps and your calories burn the distance and it also actually keeps the time if you switch over to this time view here it gives you the time and you can also swipe through to get your battery status and the date so if you swipe over here from the clock you get to the battery status this gives you kind of just a visual representation of the battery we were told it gets either/or anywhere between two to five days on battery life so you can expect to charge it every so often and actually if we come right over here you can see the charging dot for this live band touch so with this we could actually get notifications on this as well you get call notifications you can't actually answer a call if it comes in you have to end to pull your phone out of your pocket or grab your phone to answer the call but you can't dismiss with a very simple gesture simply cover it up to silence to call so that's very you also have music controls on the live in touch basic function of play Paul's volume and you can also use third-party apps so if you don't want to use LG's stock app for the life and touch you can use other fitness apps like RunKeeper MyFitnessPal or polar and different types of applications there are party applications which you can do with other wearables with fitness trackers so it's very basic in functionality it has a companion app which is available on Android and iOS and it seems to be basically along the lines of what we've been seeing with the competition here this is the Fitbit flex so it doesn't have a display the force the new Fitbit does but this one just gives you your updates on your goals but with a DoubleTap with the little LED notifications so this is the LG live man touch you can very simple there's no price given right now the expected launch date is string and this is the LG life band touch nine Tanglewood pocket now Anton behind the camera and Michael's off editing video somewhere in the press room or somewhere else so stay tuned for more CES coverage from pocket now LT I'm Taylor Martin and I'll see you next time you
