I'm not a big fan of it, but that's the rule.
Tempting, but battery only last 1 day before required charging.
Like every other smartphone
Except Pebble. Granted it's not as 'smart' as the newer stuff but it's horses for courses…
2 days is typical, not 1 unless you are a really heavy user or have a long screen timeout, and you can get up to 3-4 days.
I am half way through day #4 on my $85 Samsung Gear (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/160118) and still have 25% battery remaining with the default 30 second timeout, running a Matrix watchface with constant scrolling text and the pedometer is active.
I do turn it off overnight, but its typically on from around 7AM - 11PM - 16 hours per day.
Mine is sitting around 50 hours of usage so far. I expect to charge every second night, so I am surprised its lasted this long.
I get even longer with Tizen loaded on mine
Still holding for LG G watch R. Very good price for this one though
In same boat as you. BUT. I broke down and bought it just now :) too good of a price to ignore. The round version will be dearer in price than the Moto 360 I am reading so I would play with this one till better versions with good batteries come out. The round doesn't bring much benefit over the regular LG.
I'm hanging out to see the Sony Smartwatch 3. GPS, NFC, and transflective display (better visibility in sunlight). No heart rate monitor though.
That said, I used this watch for a couple of weeks and quite liked it.
Galaxy Gear S out in a few months
That doesn't run Android Wear though, it's OS is Tizen
Bought it at OW a few days back. Great little watch, talking to your wrist is a bit strange to start with but very handy for taking notes, etc. Also, not as big as Samsung Gear which I previously owned. 163 is a great price. OW price match?
Add to your cart and add the code, but dont buy, and take a screenshot to show OW
Still waiting for a smartwatch compatible with Windows phone or a windows watch :'(
why neg me?
I think they neged Apple, not you…
