Yes... it actually states that on the screen, while charging, as opposed to just "charging" with a regular charger.

This looks like it could generate at least the same, if not a bit more pressure than water, merely falling from a faucet, onto the phone, at a relatively close distance: https://youtu.be/l5aF23XpBwU

Just check out the number of ones with cracked screens/backs on eBay... not the most durable phone around. Still love it, though I haven't cracked the screen/back yet. Ask me again later if/when that happens.

My first Android phone was the Nexus One. It came with this inexpensive removable neoprene sleeve. I thought it was a great idea as it offered a level of protection to the phone when it was in your pocket, or when otherwise not in use... and yet it didn't at all ruin the look/feel of the phone...

Heads up for everyone... I've only had the watch for about 1 1/2 months and I just noticed the rubber band broke at the connection to the case. Basically, the band appears to house a nut that a Torx head screw connects to, through the case. The rubber that houses the nut tore/broke. AT&T...

Didn't know whether or not anyone else had seen this, but there is a decent app on the Play Store called "Advanced Settings" that looks a lot like "Settings" which is already on the watch, but provides additional functionality. There is a free version and a pay version ($1.99) which appears to...

Top 10 Android Smartwatches Buyers Guide: April 2016 Edition | Androidheadlines.com

W/r/t being careful with pay as you go plans... fortunately the watch has a data limiting feature, under Settings/Cellular/Data usage. You can select a " Data limit" as low as 50 MB, and also set a "Warning level" as low as "50 MB".

Just saw this yesterday: CoWatch smartwatch users Amazon's Alexa Voice Service (crowdfunding) - Liliputing. Note the 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of storage (and ignore the crappy 300 mAh battery, for a minute). Of course Apple smartwatches also have 8 GB of storage, though I wouldn't have bought one of...

Mine too. I don't see it any longer, however, and I don't believe I had to do anything to get rid of it.

Thought I would check with everyone else on this. I noticed that having Android Wear on my phone (a GS5), and having the watch paired/connected via bluetooth, appears to really be cranking through the phone battery. I usually start off the day around 6 AM with 100% battery. Today, for example...

If I remember correctly, when I previously checked, both the Verizon and AT&T websites reported it had NFC. I attached a screenshot of AT&T's prior webpage for it where it reports that "Near Field Communication (NFC)" for the device is "Open, Secure".

When clicking the upper button, which is supposed to bring up contacts, I get the message "No contacts found. Add contacts to contacts app on phone." However, I already have many contacts in the contacts app on my phone (Galaxy S5). Additionally, I have many of those starred or favorited, and...
