I researched watches for a couple of months for my first one this fall and decided to get the Gear S2. (Let me preface this ramble by saying I really love my Samsung Note 4). I had it for 8 days and really wanted to love it. I very seldom return things (this was a birthday gift), but I really...

I am new to Android Wear and just got a Moto 360 (2015) paired with a Galaxy Note 4 and cannot get the Google Maps app to work on the watch. The app seems to load and at first had just a white screen with the location marker and +/- but no map itself. I reloaded Maps on my phone and resynced...

I will definitely keep that in mind. I rambled per usual but am going on 2 3/4 days and down to 11% on the initial charge. Basically 3 good days of use with the only caveat being Always on turned off for about 60% of that time! I hope it lasts, it is a beautiful watch.

I bought a 46mm 360 (2015) from Best Buy this past Sunday. I charged it overnight and at 9am Monday I turned it on, loaded Android Wear etc - the watch took about 7minutes for updates and "loading 1 of 7" (after which I noticed the watch was pretty warm). The battery after all of this was at...

You can read about and see multiple images of the 360 "yellow ring" on multiple threads on reddit for both 1st and 2nd gen. watches - the discussions center on heat and glue as PookiePrancer points out. One guy got three in a row from a Best Buy.

I was thinking about buying at Best Buy or Nordstroms ( earlier thread on this forum - somewhat open ended return period ) as well to avoid the hassles so many people complain about with Motorola and possibly extended coverage via Square Trade - $44.99 for 2 year complete coverage with $59...

Stupid question - what is meant by "dual digital mics" on this watch. Are there two mics inside the watch at the level on the single pin-hole?

I don't have this watch (yet) but have been doing some online research and have come across at least 2 reviews that noticed just this problem. The last one I saw was a Youtube review by Android Athority from 10-13-15. They discuss this at 3:30 mark of the 7:30 video.

I returned mine after liking it less and using it less each day for 8 days. I liked the comfort, smooth UI and sharp colorful display. I didn't like how small the screen is at 1.2", many things were hard to read such as the stock battery indicator on the pull down menu, most complications on the...
