I don't get many opportunities to post deals, as I don't live in the the U.K! Maybe this is a first, I don't know?

Thanks for all the times this site has helped me, very grateful to the contributors for that. It helps me to plan how to spend my money when I come over!

Anyhow, I've been looking at smart watches for a while now and finally settled on this. It has been this price before, recently and may have been even cheaper in the past. But right now, this is as cheap as I can find one for. Hope I'm right.

This is a gift... :wink:

*edit* turns out that these watches may be supplied "new" but in an opened box both from amazon and scan direct. So as long as the prices are cheaper on scan, I would suggest buying from them direct to save a few quid.

sold for £86(In store credit) to cex... rather that than hassle of returning.Just not as smooth as my connected watch...slow and laggy You win some you loose some

Thanks so much - managed to get one :smiley: delivered on Monday!

You've been very helpful, thanks!

Just opened mine, box was dirty but otherwise sealed (with EE stickers mind...). Watch looks brand new and all accessories in tact and also sealed, there's even still plastic on the watch face, no dead pixels so all in all, I'm quite pleased!

Scan really are a mess. Following my negative review they arranged an RMA for the watch a) without contacting me and b) without me asking for it. Have to say this was my first order from them in years and it will be my last. Had they had the courtesy to contact me with an explanation I would have given them props. An unsolicited RMA is just lazy and poor service.

Hi mate

I got mine direct from scan, mine was initially having problems upgrading to Android wear 2.. It would download the update partly then flag a problem and not continue..

I performed a factory reset on the watch, re-paired and set it all up again and then it allowed me to download the update and install it no problem and watch is working flawlessly now

I hope this helps

poochieparker9

9 May 17 #94

Yeah, I've just emailed amazon about scan, too. Guess the more people who do it, the more likely they will "look into it". maybe it's wishful thinking, but hopefully they will label open box items as such, in future.

robbo3

9 May 17 #92

I logged a job with LG as my watch had a dead pixel, they said the watch was manufactured 2 years ago, I explained to them that scan was selling it as new and they asked for proof of purchase so I sent my invoice and a screenshot of their selling page to them, they are collecting my smart watch this week and taking it in for repair

poochieparker9

9 May 17 #91

Not sure if you bought from scan or amazon. But I asked if they would refund the difference between the two prices, they said no, but could return the watch for a full refund. Scan website says that they give you 14 calendar days to return a product for a full refund, too. If that helps?

Good luck with the AW2 installation, though. Sure it will be fine!

j_hankey

9 May 17 1 #90

Mine arrived (Amazon). Clearly not new, protective plastic on rim of watch but nothing over face. All bits appeared intact but warranty seals etc broken.

Im planning on keeping it but will register a complaint with Amazon - its sharp practice / illegal to sell items as new that clearly arent.

tonydix21

9 May 17 #89

Arrived today good condition ... a little ugly lol Been trying to put android wear 2 on for 3 hours grrr gets stuck far then error. My other watch (tag) updated over night so I'm hoping similar. It'll be £86 in store credit at cex & cut my losses if not lol

dizzyleen

9 May 17 #88

Received it today. Charging dock is missing. Box really marked. Watch seems okay.

paulb77

9 May 17 #87

Mine the same - box wear and tear but contents pristine with protective wrappers - watch has plastic protection strips - fits fine on my slim wrist - well pleased.

robbo3

9 May 17 #86

Same here, box opened and a little tatty but the watch itself is in pristine condition and had plastic protecting the metal rim of the watch to peel off

poochieparker9

8 May 17 1 #85

Ok, just as a heads up... mine arrived today. The box was tatty and it had been opened. There was no plastic on the screen :disappointed: (love peeling off that plastic) everything else looked new

poochieparker9

8 May 17 #83

The watch went OOS last week after being this price (there was only two in stock at that time) before coming back again. Could be that they get more stock later in the week.

My watch didn't have android wear 2 installed it was 1.1 and as I said charger, cable and leads were all in sealed bags so definitley never been turned on or used before

villagav

8 May 17 1 #79

i have this watch , when you pair it with your phone ,it checks for any updates , so it must pull AW2.0 at this point.

poochieparker9

8 May 17 1 #78

I've expired the deal, now. Just waiting on hearing from someone who has bought one, from scan. Or I will give my own opinion when the watch I bought arrives.

UKseagull

8 May 17 #77

Looks as though the deal has expired now, not available to purchase from Scan and the Amazon deal has vanished too.

I'd still like to know why these are classed as 'Open Box', are they customer returns? I'm also curious to know how they come with Android Wear 2 installed, isn't that an OTA update?

poochieparker9

8 May 17 #76

I've edited the opening thread to reflect the situation.

poochieparker9

8 May 17 #75

Oh no! Feel as though I have mislead people myself now. That really sucks!

feel that it is wrong that they sell it "new" on amazon. Certainly feel a little duped, myself.

Won't be making that mistake again. Still, I guess it's not a bad price if it's new and not a refurbished item.

Looking at the scan site it suggests that the watch is supplied with android wear 2.0 installled? Can anyone who picked on up from scam confirm if this is correct?

klesnikchei

8 May 17 #74

just picked mine mint and sealed thanks to store manager sorted out

dannymcfc1992

8 May 17 2 #73

Just picked mine up from scan

Can confirm it is open box but is as would be brand new.

All protective film on product and seals on charger boxes etc

So happy with that it's a great price so what of the box has been opened once

mhtrv

8 May 17 #72

I emailed them on Amazon. This was their response.

"Hello,

These are in fact open box but are in an A+ condition and the warranty is still full."

Disappointing to say the least. Doubt I'll ever buy a new product from them in the future. Also, intend to report them to Amazon later in the day.

adamspencer95

8 May 17 #71

unfortunately it looks like you'll be disappointed

adamspencer95

8 May 17 1 #70

Just spoke to Scan on their live chat, both their listing on the website and their Amazon listing are for open box items. I told them they are mis-selling as new on Amazon and they didn't seem to care.

So beware, you won't get a brand new sealed item even through Amazon.

mhtrv

8 May 17 #69

"Open box as new" is not the same as "new" though. And they shouldn't be advertising it as such if it is the former.

GenEarth

8 May 17 1 #68

As new means as new, unless you want 'better than new'? Honestly...

B_T

8 May 17 #67

I get the feeling Amazon watch will be the same as the Scan one - ie open box returns.
So could wait till the morning and call them or buy now and probably then complain its not new.

dannymcfc1992

7 May 17 #66

Ordered off scan direct to collect from bolton just up the road from me so not bad for £106

Thanks OP, good spot, I was looking for an Android Wear 2 for a reasonable price and this fits the bill. Please post any more interesting items that you see!

paypeanuts

7 May 17 1 #61

Lighten up, my friend. It was a tongue-in-cheek reference to the OP's use of the word 'reasonable' to describe the price. The OP got the joke (see post 23).
I will hand myself in to the Daft Opinion Police Yard (DOPY) first thing in the morning.

I bought this a year ago and I still think it's one of the best smartwatches out there, even more so with the new 2.0 update.

Great price now as well!

I have the LG watch R, it's currently in a draw upstairs. I did upgrade to android version 2, I now wear my good old fashioned automatic watch. I am into my tech, but this was a step to far. Hot for the price though.

4737carlinsir

7 May 17 #55

Can these be worn in suburban areas too, or would I need a different model?

sensiblewos

7 May 17 #54

I have the R and 2.0 is a disaster for me. Ok Google 10-15 secs to respond (if at all) all apps take forever to start. Factory reset doesnt help, and the forums suggest plenty people in same boat. Seems it's locked to one core. Instructions available online to downgrade back to 1.5 or to open up more cores. I'm going to downgrade as 2.0 removed a lot of features that I used. Seems like a great deal though!

As already mentioned above, the Scan site does say

Makes me wonder why they're open box, are they likely to be returns?

7 May 17 1 #49

Around an hour max.

brookysm

7 May 17 1 #48

I have the R, mates got the Urbane. Update arrived on both at the same time (while we were in a beer garden). Both seem fine with no lag for us.

Turn the screen off whenever you put it on charge (I have V1 and have done this since day 1 and no screen burn issues - battery after a couple of years is going but to be expected)

carlalston

7 May 17 1 #45

Great watch for the price considering it can be updated to AndriodWear 2.0 now, I have one and swapped out the strap for a chunky polished stainless steel hidden butterfly clasp one and it certainly changes the style.

Had one since they came out. don't waste your money ! Most functions simply do not work. upgraded to wear 2.0 and it's even worse. laggy as hell and nothing works. cannot even reply to what's app messages period. tap reply and type message on tiny screen keyboard that is actually easy to use believe it or not hit send and it say sent..... check your phone and it's not sent anything .....

Got this watch also on Android 2.0 and its brilliant no lag etc.. not sure where thats coming from.. and im getting easily 2 days of battery now, it was good before, but now its even better.

Its extremely waterproof too.. a few times forgot to take it off and showered with it on, no effect to the leather strap too.

brookysm to noseley

6 May 17 #27

looks much better in the metal than it does in pictures.

paypeanuts

6 May 17 #22

Is this reasonable uk deals? Nope, therefore I can't vote hot.

poochieparker9 to paypeanuts

6 May 17 #23

Hehehe. I used the term reasonable as i was a little unsure if it was hot when I posted it. It was the cheapest new one I could find, but it's a little hard to be a U.K. Bargain hunter as I don't live in the U.K.

The post was more a way to hopefully pay it forward to others in the community for posting deals that have helped me in the past, and also for peace of mind that this purchase price was ok.

Not bothered if it went hot or not, just happy it didn't go freezing with lots of reasons as to why people voted cold. That would have been a bit harder to take as the purchase had already been made :smiley:

6 May 17 #20

I've got the SW3, and its worth the £42 in my opinion. I'm not sold on the whole smartwatch thing, but for £42 to see if you'll get on with one, that's worth a pop.

poochieparker9

6 May 17 #17

I've never had an issue with scan when I've needed to use their customer service. Bought a motherboard and processor from Them when I lived in the U.K. The processor fried so drove over to them and they tested it and it was faulty, at their expense of another processor. It was a no quibble replacement. Kind of put me off building my own PCs, though. now I stick to raspberry pi :smiley:

tom6195

6 May 17 1 #12

So these are Grade A right?

paulb77 to tom6195

Definitely new in the description.

poochieparker9

6 May 17 #13

Tom6195. There's absolutely nothing I can see on the amazon website to say this isn't a brand-spanking-new watch. I wouldn't have bought it if I didn't think it was anything but. Also, another place has this listing as it being a new watch. Hope that helps.

tom6195 to poochieparker9

6 May 17 #14

I see your point. I presume there wouldn't be any issues with returns if required?

crazymonkey

6 May 17 #11

The who-are-we watch looks really nice, so nice it would be my go to watch for all occasions, including it being my 'dress watch' it just looks effeminate when it's side by side the Eljeee :smiley:

The LG however looks more 'manly' and much more bulky! compared to the Huawei

The damn iFruit watch is annoying me so much, there are days where I am having to put it on charge at work because the batteries dying.

crazymonkey

6 May 17 #10

Are these any good? This is me asking about user feedback e.g. from those who own 'em as opposed to the specs I've read :smiley:

Battery life?

Annoying stuff - e.g. bugs...

What type of features should have been added?

Tom6195 - you can buy a 22mm steel strap on amazon for like 11 or 12 pounds. Supposedly easy to fit.

I have one of these and a steel bracelet improves the appearance no end. And it's just had an update to Android Watch 2.0.

tom6195 to dwl99

6 May 17 #5

How much is the steel strap? Also is this better than a huawei watch?

poochieparker9

6 May 17 #4

Yes, it's not the prettiest. I liked the huawei classic. I'm a fan of huawei since the p6 phone tbh (though it was impossible to repair). However, I looked at it yesterday and it just felt a little plasticky. Most of the bad comments about this watch is about the size, but I've measured my wrist and I think I can just about pull it off! This watch had a few more features than the huawei classic reading some compare websites.
