It was from within a notification rather than the app list, I was scrolling there as it has a few screens to scroll through

Within the weather app? It won't scroll to the left? Scrolling to the right exits the app, and scrolling up and down just moves up and down the page. Have resorted to downloading another weather app, and that accuratelly recognises where I am.

on the watch, scroll left get to the open on phone option, then the widget should open on your phone and you can set the location there.

Anyone know how to set the location in the weather app on the watch? Mine says Anglesey, and I;m nowhere near there? The weather app on my phone is correct.

2.0 is very different, as all the gestures work differently (better), but my battery has gone down quickly perhaps because it's in Beta.
Not as many apps as they are stand-alone rather than based on whats on your phone.
I'm liking the way it works but might go back (to 1.50) to get the apps, and await 2017 when more will be 2.0 compatible.

Still resisting buying this in the hope it goes cheaper - but probably won't.
Can anyone comment on how thick it is on the wrist?

Sorry I don't know.
There is a factory image there too so you can always try and then if it's worse go back to original.
I will say the Wear 2.0 is SO MUCH BETTER!! Be warned though, apps are now stand alone so a bit thin on the ground right now, the play store is on there but not a lot of apps in there.

well Pretty miffed they dropped the price by a good £20 a few days after buying mine. Naturally they wont refund the difference but they are letting me send it back for a £3.99 charge while I purchased it again at this price. Seems crazy, I am not loving the daily price gamble on Amazon products...it seems a bit shady to me though I am sure they are entitled to do as they please.

The reason for the discount is that the 2nd version is coming soon. As it uses Samsung's proprietary OS instead Android Wear, I think this is a step back personally so this is even more of a deal IMO.

This is now £167.99. I got mine yesterday @ £189. I don't know whether to request a refund of the difference, or return the watch. I read/saw reviews that the vibration motor was weak, but this is taking the wee. I missed about 30 whatapp messages because I could fell the vibration, even tho it's tight on my wrist. You have to be expecting the bibration to actually feel it! Anyone else having this problem?

would this work with the fitbit app
e4kenndr to RedRain

No unless fitbit supports Android wear in their app? Which I doubt as they'll want you to buy their hardware. It syncs with Google Fit and many other health tracking apps though that will play nice.

I've never had a problem getting money back if price drops even if it's been a few weeks later. Just save yourself the bother of waiting 3-5 days plus postage time for a refund and chat to them.
I'm definitely getting this to replace my scratched up g watch r. Was waiting for the black one to drop but that's not gonna happen.

Looking forward to mine being delivered today. Any recommendations for mesh straps?
I like deployment (butterfly) clasps on my watch straps - I'm assuming the need to sit on the charger base means I wont be able to do that with this?

I bought a butterfly clasp stainless steel band. Tiny bit annoying with the charger but not that much of an issue. The charger sits between the clasp and the charger basically.

EMBASSY
19 Nov 16#10
paid more. does everything i need. lots of watch faces out there. add some Mesh watch bands.to give another side to it. still the watch to have.
re- "The charging point is a bit dodgy too with this watch according to reviews, you have to ensure you connect it properly or it won't charge." if it does not light up. you need to try again. have a watch/phone stand. so never found this to be a problem. as the charging port cant move!
wakkaday
18 Nov 16#1
Decent price they have some. Used ones slightly cheaper. Shame it wasn't this price with the 20 percent warehouse discount. I've been doing research as great as this watch is, it uses an old processor. It most likely will have a android wear 2.0 next year but I'm guessing the new processor on the newer watches will be better performing. This also has no light sensor so you will be manually adjusting. The charging point is a bit dodgy too with this watch according to reviews, you have to ensure you connect it properly or it won't charge. I've personally gone with the zenwatch 3 which is around same price as this.

I have a LG watch urbane and I was looking at this watch but I don't think it's a massive upgrade. I don't think it offer much to justify the price to me. But someone looking to buy a smart watch this maybe for you.
haritori to ssjinzo
19 Nov 16#8
It offers pretty much nothing over the Urbane, there will be a lot of new watches next year with Android 2.0 might be worth holding on.. My Urbane is still brilliant.

I got the black version in March. I'm generally very pleased with it. With the last few updates battery life keeps getting better. I can now get 2.5 days on a charge no problem. The Bluetooth connection does occasionally drop out though. This thing is built to last. The sapphire screen is good as new and the body seems to absorb bumps and knocks really well. I believe the stainless steel version is prone to scratching easily
IndianaBlues
19 Nov 16#6
If this is a sapphire screen does it need a screen protector? My regular watch with sapphire hasn't got a scratch on it despite a lot of wear on the bezel, but obviously that doesn't have a touchscreen incorporated...

18 Nov 161#3
Go for it, great smartwatch, have one for more than a year and still looks great, do not worry about the light sensor, mine stays on max and gets through the day with @20-40 battery left. Charger is good, you just have to be sensible about it, it is magnetic and will go easily in the correct position. Screen is amazing, worth every penny... Best out there. Also very tough, no protection on it at all and its still like brand new. Was over £300 then...
