I love this watch, I thought that the bezel size would bug me but it doesn't. The one negative I have is that after 3 days of use the case was scratched.

I've been a user of smartwatches since the first Android Wear watches rolled out in 2014. I've used Google's, Apple's and Samsung's offerings so I have been accustomed to using various designs on a daily basis. The first thing to note is that the design is very simplistic and not going to be to everyone's taste. The design is on par with what I wanted it to be, but your mileage may vary. The main things that are lacking are the heart rate sensor, NFC to payments, GPS and a speaker. None of these matter to me too much, but it's something to consider. Performance is very good, voice dictation is reliable and the screen is very vibrant looking. Overall very happy.

Part of the problem with smartwatches is that neither the public nor the manufacturers have figured out what they are for. Do people want a smartphone for their wrist? Do they want a fitness tracker? What do people need a smartwatch for? I actually went in knowing *exactly* what I wanted a smartwatch for, and so choosing this watch was simple. I wanted a device that would connect to my online calendar and remind me of meetings, events, and the like with a vibration that I would actually notice (unlike my smartphone on vibrate) but which would not be disruptive to my day (unlike my smartphone's alarm.) I wanted a device which could connect to my account on Google Fit and track my activities without being as bulky to carry as my smartphone (a Nexus 6P). I wanted a device that looked like a watch that I would actually wear. I'm a rather slim man, and big, bulky watches make my arms like like twigs. Also, I do not like the "flat tires" on some round displays; nor am I fond of square watches. That was really all I needed and the LG Style does those things. Oh sure. It also can do more. You can download plenty of apps for it (called "complications" from the Play Store.) You can put on Play Music or Overdrive or a podcast app and then download content so that you can connect to a Bluetooth headset and listen from your watch. You can use IFTTT to set up notifications. There are many possibilities. But what do I use a watch for? Keeping time and scheduling. And if I keep that as the main focus for a smartwatch, then I shall never be disappointed. The Style accomplishes that. It looks good. It is comfortable. The screen is crisp and clear. The watch faces are easy to change. And using the side dial is a convenient and comfortable way to scroll. I would almost put this as a perfect example of a basic smartwatch if not for two things. First of all, the battery life. Even though I turn off Bluetooth & WiFi when I am not using them, and keep the screen off when I am not using it, and use adaptive brightness, I cannot squeeze more than a day out of the battery. Usually I wind up turning it off around bedtime and charging it. This could easily be fixed with a larger battery, maybe the one from the LG Sport. It would increase the thickness, but possibly not so much that it would be unwieldy. Second, the charger is small and I worry about losing it. I am concerned that spare chargers do not seem to be available, though I suspect that any inductive charger would work. Third, and least important. I would not be averse to it having a heart rate monitor. Without it, this smartwatch is not quite as functional as most fitness monitors, nor as versatile as most other smartwatches. It needs something to push it over the edge. Beyond that though, this is a decent basic smartwatch. I would say that for form it deserves five stars, but for functionality it only deserves three. So I averaged it to four. I cannot quite recommend this watch. More advances (especially to the battery life) need to be made.

Pretty great if you want a basic smartwatch, pretty bad in comparison to others. The biggest plus to it is its size. I wanted a watch that wasn't as bulky and masculine as the Gear s3 and this delivered with its perfectly small and stylish build. Messages I didn't care for, I had to download an app for messenger because I didn't like how messages was set up. The odometer on it wasn't all too accurate either, but not enough to be a problem. The one problem I had with it was the battery life. With the Gear s3 I'm used to my watch lasting at least 2 days. This watch barely made it through 1 with very little use. I can't imagine how it would be if I used it more. I had to return it because this was just too much of a problem

Pros: 1.Nice look with premium leather strap and round face(probably this watch is only for women) 2. Bright display..No problem even u are under direct sunlight 3. Great responsive touch 4.The last but not least is it's awesome 2.0 software Cons: 1. Biggest drawback for me is not having a speaker(I'm using Asus ZenWatch 3 n it has a speaker from which u can listen songs n take calls directly on watch). We have to connect wireless headphones to listen music from this watch. 2.No NFC, GPS There's also no LTE but it's not a big problem for me I would like to recommend it for someone who doesn't bother about the cons I have mentioned above
