Less than a day battery life for the moto360 is a deal breaker. The verge said they had troubles getting more than 12 hours with heavy use. But i have to say it's the nicest smart watch out there.

Looks like the Moto360 is sold out and will not have more stock for a while.

Good news there are lots available on Ebay for a market up price.

I will wait til around 3 reputable reviewers review this first before deciding to buy one...
Mainly looking forward to AndroidAuthority's review... they did a review at IFA.. but rather wait to Josh gets his unit for better testing..

I'm liking the look of the LG G Watch R, but no word on prices yet.

Hands-on with the LG G Watch R

Moto 360 vs. LG G Watch R

Im not really liking the square smartwatch faces... rounded seems better IMHO
LG G watch R with that dial around the outside, looks so Timex'ish...

Apparently the new software update for the Moto360 greatly improves battery life. This is tempting.

Saw one yesterday worn by a guy, not sure if I like how the look of the watch is when worn. Interested in the LG one because it looks more like a timepiece with added smart technology as opposed to vice versa. Also the bottom black section of the moto360 that isnt part of the screen is another reason.

I just recieved my free moto360...
I was expecting something from ebay that I usually buy...
Ripped apart the package and was super duper excited...

Finally those giveaway contest worked....

At first I really wanted to buy one.. but after reading reviews about terrible battery life and so on, I decided not too... packaging is weird.. came in a bubble wrap envelope and the moto360 box inside.. I was expecting a cardboard box... lol...
The address on the label reads Eastern Canada Service Depot in Brampton ON...

first Intel Android Wear watch is being made by Tag
their CEO refers their regular line up to MB S600's while this one will be akin to a smart car, hence wider audience and hopefully affordable...it's apparently modular as well so you don't have to worry about throwing it out in a few years when the Li ion battery goes to shit or you if want a faster processor/better screen.

?Tag Heuer smartwatch tech will be upgradable

amazon.com had it for $160 USD last week...which after everything isn't much of a discount to the new local pricing
I think gen 2 is coming out...i'd wait for that...gen 1 is pretty bulky

Wifi seems to work.. connected both watch and phone.. sent a msg and went out of range..
Normally when the phone is in my room and i go to the kitchen, it says im disconnect from wear... this time its the same but i got a msg back.. so i guess its working.. lol.. gotta try some more to be sure...


the gestures work not bad... not i dnt need to swipe.. but the wrist flicking is kinda gay when you do it in public and ppl starts starin at you.. lmao
