I find I'm wearing my watch less - anyone else?

True, but there's still bluetooth radiation.

My doctor likens the interference to a clothes iron. Not an issue at 10 feet but put that iron close to your head and you might regret it.

And yet you wear the thing strapped to your wrist during the day. Although, If I have trouble sleeping I may just move it and see, you never know.

I really don't want to contribute to this off-topic direction, but as far as I know, there is no credible evidence, whatsoever, that low-power emissions from things like wifi, bluetooth, or even phone cell connections has any affect on the human body, at all. Worrying about RF/EMR is like worrying about a pinprick hole in a boat when the boat is about to fall over a 300 foot waterfall. If you want to worry about things that CAN and DO affect you in your bedroom, then worry about dust mites and microbes, chemicals off-gassing from the paint, the carpet, the bedding, your clothing, the soap you used, what is in your toothpaste you just brushed with, devices that make unnecessary noise or light, and dozens of other things.

And please keep in mind that RF (like all kinds of emissions) goes down to the square of the distance.

When I mentioned the health effects of wearing a watch in bed, it is solely about the tangible and well-known threats that the physical presence of such a device strapped on your wrist has on the soft tissues, nerves, tendons, and blood-flow, due to pressure and restriction. It also has the potential to disrupt sleep hygiene, another well-known cause of health issues.

I'm not wearing it as much because of the plastic back. I find it just gets uncomfortable and slightly more sticky than a proper metal back. It's a shame that a metal back would also make wireless charging impossible but I think I'd rather have an Asus ZenWatch than the 360.

That and I also like my Tag too much so hopefully they release their Android Wear watch soon.

I wear mine all the time since Day 1. Tinker with watch faces although I've pretty much settled on just a couple. Swap out watch bands all the time and probably even more so now since I just received my SteelConnect adapters. I think I could probably go two days now on a single charge as I usually go to bed with around 60% battery remaining after a 16 to 17 hour day. But stock Qi charger is on my nightstand, so no big deal to me to place it on the charger every night, right next to my Moto X 2014 which I also charge each night. Pebble Time looks too cartoonish to me.

Ever since I got my S6 I'm very disappointed that Google Fit cannot work on the phone and S Health is not a supported device. I'm still wearing my watch daily (forgot home once) but have realized it wasn't what I really wanted. I realize now I wanted a fitness band more so while I think the 360 is great, its lack of app support for fitness to even measure basic tasks is frustrating.

For some reason I'm still trying to work out bought an LG G watch, which I actually love, appart from the fact that it's not supported by A Health,which really anoys me. Also for some reason I just can't figure out Google fit has suddenly become incompatible with my S5? No one will tell why, and I've done countless searches and come up with nothing. Not even sure who to contact about it?

Having sais all that I love this watch. It acts as a little guardian for my phone. It unlocks when it's connected and tells me if I walk away from it without realising. That in itself is worth the price I paid for it [which wasn't that much cos I got it off eBay]. Also discovered the wonderful world of sleep tracking, and this thing called "MindDroid" which creates flashing lights and sounds and actually put me to sleep with a drink on my chest only to wake up at 2AM with a phone balanced on my face and a soaking wet t-shirt

Google fit doesnt work with any Samsung lollipop devices right now because appersntly the heart rate senor is causing problems, I've got an S6 and it also doesn't work. Let's hope Google is adding a fix for us soon.
