" ... Battery life sucks, but overall quality and experience is great! ... "
" ... And though I do whatever I can to disable stuff to try to maintain battery life, I find myself needing to charge my watch every 2 days. ... "

" ... So what else - there's some apps out there, you can get navigation, which sounds neat but the reality is, I'm over 40 and can't see up close that great when I'm wearing my contacts. ... I'm able to text (though if you're a long-time user of Google Voice like I am, it will use your paired device's number to send/reply with and not your GV number.) ... I even found a nifty Powerpoint app that I can link my watch to my laptop and use it as a remote. ... Everything in the Tizen OS seems to be nice and fast, no lagging at all. ... Nice, now all my settings are gone (note to myself and others - you CAN backup your settings so you don't lose them through the phone app!) ... "
" ... My biggest criterion were that it had to be reasonably sized, reasonably priced, have GPS, and be able to have offline maps. ... 4) Navigation - navigation through the different widgets and apps was very intuitive on both watches. ... Very similar to how Google Maps works. ... "
" ... Can't wait to try out their updated watch! ... "
" ... No app loading time, very intuitive interface, and the third party watch faces can be really awesome! ... "
" ... This model is far better than the s2 series or any android wear option by far. ... "
