True about Samsung. I also have a Samsung Gear Fit and it has no problems displaying text of stock Samsung apps.

This alone is worth its weight in $$$. I've loved mechanical analog watches and have amassed over three dozen Swiss mechanicals in the last decade and a half. What attracts me first with a watch is the dial design. Being able to change faces is the killer feature. I have both the Moto 360 and...

I've been using Google Messenger for sms. I'm able to reply on the watch to text messages. This sms app was launched by Google back in mid-November. I find it better than Hangouts.

How about rebooting or resetting the Note 3? I've been using my 360 for the past two weeks with my Note 3, and it has been seamless so far.

This is pretty much my experience as well. I'm experiencing battery consumption of around 3% per hour, so that will come around to about 30 hours on a full charge. Very happy so far with the watch and the battery longevity. Based on my experience, I am able to eke out at least two days' use...

Never had that as well. As always, perhaps a reboot of the watch is in order.

Ditto. I have over thirty mechanical wrist watches collected over seventeen years. All are round. Never went for digitals save for a few Suunto round, rugged instrument watches and heart rate meters as well. Bought two Cookoo notification watches last year largely because of its rugged...

Mine did. After reading the other threads, I recited OK Google once and it went away. Some are reporting, though, that this remedy doesn't work for them.

I have two Cookoo watches and a Qualcomm Toq. I have have over thirty mechanical timepieces. Ever since I first got the first Cookoo notification watch, I have worn my mechanicals less and less. After I got the Toq, I've worn the Cookoo watches less and less since these only show notification...

Depends on what you mean by underwhelming. It sure isn't retina level for that small watch screen, but it's plenty dense enough. I don't suppose we should be comparing it with a full phone since checking the time and notifications would tend to take a short duration versus the time we spend...

What the... I was expecting a small anomaly. That just sucks! This is the reason why I never leave my electronics plugged in beyond the estimated time to full charge. I plug in a timer socket set for two to three hours maximum.

Man, thanks so much for the link. Stoked to see all the great colors available. The white, black, and metallic plastic are looking good. Can you kindly post a picture of the tall version on the Moto 360? Does it get in the way with the swiping gestures, since I reckon it will end up like a lip...

Thanks. What caught my eye though is that black plastic ring protecting the watch case itself. In watch circles, it would be called a shroud or a watch case guard. Looks custom made for the Moto 360, and it's the first time I've seen one.

Agenda ring - is that the black shroud protecting the watch chassis? Is that made of rubber or some plastic? Where were you able to buy that and how much, if you don't mind? Looks way too cool. [emoji3]

Very, very nice. Looks robust and beefy. I hope I find one in stores when I get my Moto 360 next week.
