    I have worn a standard Fit Bit and liked the step count feature. I was looking for more function and style for the space it was taking up on my wrist. I liked the idea of the applewatch but not the price and my phone is an Android. I started researching and kept coming across this watch. Reviews kept saying it's an entry level smart watch but I honestly don't know what the others do that this one doesn't. It offers nice clean simple styling very similar to the applewatch and has the option of interchangeable bands. It comes in two sizes I went with the smaller face size as most of the Android smartwatches are huge. Be aware however that the smaller of the two lacks the speaker and slightly larger battery found on the larger one. It operates with the Android app on your phone the same one used by the other smartwatches. It allows you to customize watch faces, and personalise settings. I receive chosen notifications with a slight vibration. With a simple glance at my wrist I can see who is calling, incoming texts, and selected notifications which come up with caller id. I can swipe to answer to my phone, read notification and respond voice to text. It offers voice activated google searches including navigation right to your wrist. A simple glance will tell you your next turn as you walk or drive. The keep feature allows you to record notes and lists with voice to text which you can even check off as you go. This watch also connects to your phone with wifi in addition to Bluetooth. I find this incredibly useful as I have a large phone and this allows me to leave my phone on my desk or in my purse as I move room to room without sacrificing connection as long as I am in range of any recognized wifi. Also as I am not dragging my giant phone everywhere the find my phone feature is amazingly handy! I have worn this watch for about 6 months now and the functionality continues to improve with each update. The finish and face of the watch still look great. I previously rated this watch at 5 stars I'm deducting a star now however as the amoled screen is getting burn in. As I have never used the always on screen option, gestures, or keep it on the brighter setting I don't see why this should already be an issue. I will revise my review if this is something that either Asus or my Greek squad coverage will rectify. I'm curious if this might also be an issue with the more expensive watches in which case they may be worth the additional cost.

    I bought this watch for my wife and she has been extremely happy. The only downfall is the watch does not have a heartbeat monitor. But since she has a Galaxy S6, so not the end of the world.

    Purchased this because I was disappointed with the iwatch battery life and wanted to stop wearing my shine fitness tracker on the opposite wrist. Was pleased with the weight and functionality of the watch and fitness tracking. Unfortunately it does not have sleep monitoring. Would have preferred a little smaller screen size. Battery last much longer than the iwatch. It does not look cheap. Good less expensive alternative to the iwatch.

    This smart watch works with iOS as well as Microsoft platforms. I have iOS and, while it does not currently provide access to iOS apps, it offers number of integrated conveniences, walking steps, e-mail and message integration, phone recognition,and other components, and it calls upon Google apps as well that is a nice feature. Hopefully, more iOS apps will be possible soon. The battery power is limited, requiring daily charging particularly if paired with another device such as a smartphone. The styling is nice, a bit smaller than the Apple watch. All in all, a good buy depending on the uses you might have for such a device.

    Love this watch. I have the Samsung gear 2 and this works just as well. Wish it had sound, sometimes I don't notice the vibration. Other than that no complaints. It's a nice purchase for half the price of a Samsung.

    This smart watch fits my wrist well. The charge only lasts for a day and becomes disconnected more than my last one.

    The zenwatch is a wonderful alternative to the more expensive Samsung smartwatches. My wife wanted to use her smartwatch for more outdoor activities and did not want to be messing up a $300 watch and so this one half that price does the job just fine.

    I bought this for my wife. The reason that she asked for this particular model of Zenwatch is that, at 45mm, it's not as large as a typical smart watch. As it is an Android Wear watch, she had full access to the extensive line of Android Wear apps. She is a little disappointed that it doesn't have a heartbeat monitor, but, with it's price, it's the best smart watch value out there.

    Bought this for my wife as an early birthday gift. It has the same internals as the $300 watches minus the heart rate sensor. It functions as expected for an android wear watch.

    5th Smart watch to date. I like the screen size and the clarity. It is not waterproof but it is sweat proof. Easy to change bands. Best Buy band works great on it. It's a little thicker than I would like. It was inexpensive.

    Purchased for wife, she is getting used to it. Had a slight issue with connection between phone and watch. But reset watch and seems to be working now. Good clarity on screen, wish more bands were available for watch though.
