I've basically given up on trying to make this watch look good... and honestly, I've basically given up on smartwatches altogether.
I stopped wearing this everyday, because it's just one more thing to charge up daily and and another device to worry about battery all day. I see bugs daily and I honestly feel like it's more of a burden than a benefit to wear.
I still use it for running so I can take advantage of GPS* and music** without needing my phone, but that's it.
*The GPS is sketchy at best. It's worked for me most of the time, but some runs are way off and it's super frustrating when you're on a run and you notice it's going all over the place (suddenly jumping by a km, for example). There have been MANY complaints online about this issue. Apparently, it goes haywire once you get sweaty. Who would have predicted that people would get sweaty while running, right??
**Play Music has been nothing but a giant bug lately, won't sync music. I've found many people online having the same issue for months, and Google knows about it, but hasn't done anything to fix it. I've been using an app called Wear Media to get my music on the watch, and that app has its own set of issues.
If you're looking looking for a running watch, this could fit the bill. Otherwise, just stay away and save your money/time.
