Tag Heuer has confirmed that owners of its Connected smartwatch can look forward to getting their hands on Android Wear 2.0 at the end of March.

That means Connected owners will receive the software update around the same time that it rolls out for the Huawei Watch and Fossil's range of Android Wear smartwatches.

Android Wear 2.0 is arguably Google's most significant update to its smartwatch operating system. It brings a whole host of new features including the ability to access and download apps from the watch, improved iOS/Android Wear experience., more custom watch faces and standalone apps that don't require being tethered to your smartphone.
