I have been using this watch for two days.
Let me add some quotes before starting my review.
"Wearables aren’t just about spec sheets and benchmarks."
"Compromises are part of good product design"
"Kuch chiize dil mein aati hai, samjh mein nahi."
Alright, First of all. This is one heck of aBEAUTIFUL WATCH, and that’s just enough reason to buy it! you can skip the rest of the review.
Anyways still a bit of technical details.
If you are male, buy the large version, smaller version won’t look good on hand. BE A MAN MY FRIEND.
Flat tire? don’t, just dont worry about it, Refer quote 2. Ambient light sensor is very very important especially when you are using the watch at night and toddling in well and bad illuminated areas. Non- self adjusting watches will be annoying and will cause an itch of tension about battery in your head. and Flat tire does’nt bother a bit to me.
You find other watches with higher resolution attractive?. 233 ppi is actually enough, well balanced between good display, refresh rate and battery consumption. Higher resolution might make devices lag. And lag is bad for blood pressure.
I wish RAM were 1GB. But 512 it ok. RAM hungry apps in Future might cause problems though.
Quad core 1.2Ghz. The raw power hungry hacker geeks are mouth watering I guess.
Wifi is there, though it gives some sort of independence from phone, but only few apps prefer directly going to wifi. wifi consumes battery and Android wear seems to be power saving it. Wifi is huge advantage though.
If ever, Google Now will find REAL utility, it will be in smart watch really. Voice recognization is good.
Over next few years when android wear upgrades, it will become more efficient and power saving, For now App store is pretty empty.
A WORD OF CAUTION: A smart Watch wont bring much of a utility addition. Everything can actually be done on your phone. but you know,
