One of the best looking smartwatches around and we no predecessor coming anytime soon, will be updated loads. Not as good as £129.99 on Amazon black Friday but its the cheapest you'll find it, even for the the high street. If found chrpaer elsewhere please share, this is hot for the price whether your an apple fanboy or not (this works with iPhone as well)

Got one for xmas in the black friday deal, with a stainless strap its a beautiful watch, screen seems 10 times brighter and more responsive than my LG g watch

Is this a good or best smart watch available?

CPU spec there is nothing between between the top android wear watches.
It's very good especially if you buy a stainless strap for it, had I not bought the Sony smartwatch 3 I would have jumped on this. Same cpu spec but the Urbane has a heart monitor, OLED screen (pros and cons with this), better resolution, better looking, audio alert, IP water resistance rating not as good as the SW3
Overall I would prefer this to the SW3 but since I have the SW3 already it's not much of an upgrade and I'm more than happy
// edit not marking either hot or cold : As £150 would be a great price for this

It's a very good looking watch when you see it in the metal so to speak, classy looking tho on the large side.

I think it depends what you want it for, if you want something for just notification then they all do that, if you want one for fitness, then for me the Sony SW3 is miles ahead as it is the only one with a GPS ( so you dont need a phone) also works with external HRM ( build in ones dont work that well). It also lasts for about two days if you arent using the GPS.

This is a great watch. I've had it since June and use it much more than I originally thought I would. Voted hot.

Does yours randomly go offline or say disconnected even when it's connected to a phone?
I've had 2, one has burn-in on the screen which disappears when the always on setting is off for a while. The other it replaced never had that. Both of them, old and new, regularly lose connection with my S6 Edge, sometimes the voice recognition works but then the watch refuses to act on the instruction it understood. When it works it's great but it's not 100% reliable and that is annoying as hell.

Got one as a gift, nice bit of kit, I'm probably going to swap out the strap for a metal one.
Some apps you might want to consider are Watchmaker premium (free in Amazon app store) Staylit Wear , Wear Mini Launcher & Facer.

Wearable Widgets is clever, it sends one widget from your phone to your watch and it can be your watch face if you like. I send the Bus Checker's app's bus times widget to it so I can leave my house and tap my watch to see what bus is coming before I get to the stop.
