For those looking for an inexpensive introduction to smartwatches, this is a perfect choice. Don't let the budget-level price fool you - it does exactly what a smartwatch should do. I get reminders & notifications (calendar & apps), remotely control phone calls, compose or reply to texts via voice or key, monitor my physical activity, and more. For me, the most important point was battery life. I am happy to report that it can go 3+ days without charging (I turn it off at night). I create custom watch faces as well, which is great. Even for tech-challenged individuals, it's easy to use. I wanted to purchase a smartwatch with full features that would get through the day and wouldn't break the bank. The value makes it very usable (I don't have to worry about damaging a $500 piece of tech). Bought one for my wife too, and she loves it. Don't forget the screen protector if you purchase one.

The watch is awesome for the price. You cant really compare it to the Fossil watch as they aren't a actual watch company. But it is definitely a nice and sleek design. Got mine with a brown leather strap. I would highly recommend this product as most smartwatches are on the Google Wear platform. Asus built in apps are surprisingly good. Get a lot of compliments on this watch as well.

This is my first smartwatch purchase. The Asus Zenwatch2 is very easy to setup and use. There are several apps you can install to meet your needs. You can easily send and receive texts and phone calls as well as emails.

I am surrounded by everything Apple. I have even purchased an Apple Watch (twice) and have returned them. I bought this watch knowing it wasn't 100% compatible with my iPhone. This watch is so darn pretty and looks even better on me! I find myself asking folks "You looking at me!!" when I see them staring at my wrist. They always ask "Is that an Apple watch" and I say "Heck NO!! Been there done that!". I love being able to read my emails, get calendar notifications, text messages,and alerts when I've been sitting too long (to name a few things that makes this watch just right). I love how easy it was to switch out the bands. I was able to purchase a standard elastic watch band which worked with this watch like a charm. This watch charges pretty fast so I can sleep with it on (for sleep tracking) and can have it fully charged by the time I'm out the shower and off to work.

Very nice watch. Excellent features, and fantastic price compared to competitors. Easily the best value among smartwatches today. However, there is one very serious negative. This watch uses AMOLED technology for the screen. One thing that can happen with these screens is that images that stay on the screen for a long time can "burn in" the screen, so that the image is "ghosted" on there forever. Some watchfaces (in particular" the "Glance" watchface, will burn this in within a matter of days (as you can see in the accompanying photo). Look at the demo watch in the store....every one I have seen has a serious burn-in issue. I returned my first watch and got a second one (as I consider this a manufacturing defect), and am making sure to change watchfaces every day or so, and nor leaving it on "ambient" mode at night. Even if it burns in, you'll save enough to buy the Zenwatch 3 in a year, but this really should not be happening in 2016.
