    Goodbye Moto360... For now...

    that's the thing though - i'm one of the few people who do not leave my phone out on the dining table at home or when i go out with friends. when i'm out and sitting down at a restaurant, the phone is either in my back pocket (as far as it'll go in while sitting) or under my thigh so i can feel...

    Goodbye Moto360... For now...

    well, after much usage and deliberation, i decided to return my moto360. it was a great device. i fully understood what i was purchasing so i did not expect it to perform like a traditional watch. my expectations were to get discreet notifications, tell time, and do some fun things like...

    Android Wear Update!

    some observations after android wear update (ver. 1.1.11876095): google fit and motorola heart app will occassionally pop up on the watch battery screen with 1% usage each. this despite all fit and all motorola apps turned OFF. mute phone alerts and calls is turn ON but it does not work...

    Poll: Are You Using A Cover?

    i'm using the nexus oem black bumper case (i like that it has "nexus" written on the back) + tempered glass screen protector. great combo for protection imho.

    How long have you had your Nexus 5?

    ~15 months and counting. got the official bumper case in black and a tempered glass protector on it and looks as good as new. funny anecdote - when i was in korea in march, all the people i met were fascinated by the "nexus" since they didn't know what that was. they were impressed with its...

    Android Wear Update!

    after a few days of use, looks like my watch's battery life has stablized again. my watch was off charger for 14 hours yesterday, getting steady texts and email notifications throughout the day. i sent new texts and responded to several via the watch. all told, i had 56% battery left when i...

    Should I be concerned?

    looks like bluetooth is running more than it should. does the watch and phone run hot? does your phone run out of battery quickly too? i ran into that problem a couple of times myself. i had to disconnect the 360 from wear, turn off bluetooth on phone, reboot the watch, clear the wear app...

    Does the Moto 360 not have the auto-on feature when you spin your wrist?

    for tickles and giggles, i just messed around with the tilt to wake feature over the weekend. according to my observation, the angle you turn the watch needs to face you a bit more. on a regular watch, you can keep the face at near parallel with the ground and you can still see the time with...

    Should I be concerned?

    after the honeymoon phase was over, i've been getting about ~24-30 hours per charge. this is with ambient, tilt, heartrate, pedometer off. i suspect if i used a really simple watchface, i'd get even more life out of it. my current watchface displays watch and phone battery life. i think as...

    Android Wear Update!

    against my better judgement, i upgraded android wear. my battery life on the 360 was at about 85% 2.5 hours off charger, and the watch battery life indicated 1 day and 3 hours left. after upgrading android wear, i unchecked tracking with google fit and cloud wifi, reconnected to the 360 and...

    Fitness

    i was all ready to buy a fitbit charge hr... then the price dropped on the 360 so i bought the 360 instead. i have zero regrets buying the 360. having said that, imho, 1) unless you use a nato strap or rubber/silicone band, the 360 is no good as a fitness tracking smartwatch. leather and...

    Robin's LG G Pad 8.3 Thread

    Re: anyone use launchers? that's pretty much why i use the google launcher as well. also, i have a nexus 5 phone and i wanted the same navigation interface on both of my mobile devices... works great for me!

    that has been my observations as well.
