    Very Decent Price For A Watch This Size, Charges Quick,Battery Lasts Pretty Long, Bands Are Easy To Swap Out Incase You Prefer Another One, Works With Either Android Or IPhone Even Though The Zenwatch 2 Is Android Set Up With My LG G5 Took A Few Quick Seconds

    The watch is good for the price. A little confusing as far as the instructions but YouTube was very helpful. The band that comes with it is very stiff and I bought another one that is more comfortable.

    This watch has all the features you would want in a smart watch with a much lower price point compared to other watches. granted it doesn't have a GPS built in or a heart rate sensor but everything else is here and a counted for.

    I love this thing! It lasts for 2 days, has a bright and useful screen. Controls my Spotify music, notifies me of texts & emails, etc. Plus, it will be getting Android 2.0 when it releases.

    I had originally purchased the Samsung Gear Fit2 because i wanted a fitness tracker with smart watch functions (ie: reading/replying to messages on my wrist, seeing notifications etc) and found that unfortunately despite it being more pricey than the Asus, the accuracy of the fitness stats was quite questionable and the smart functions were VERY limited.... come the savior and much cheaper Asus ZenWatch 2 which seems to have all the smart watch features of much pricier options, and I like it even more than the Samsung Gear 2 watch... tracks my stats, a microphone on the watch so I can reply to messages or ask Google questions without having my phone out, plus a wide assortment of awesome looking watch faces from the Zenwatch app. Great purchase! Yes it doesnt have a heart rate tracker but I found I never used that and it doesnt have GPS but I always have my watch on me so it uses that GPS.

    Love this watch with just a few notes. Battery life is better than I expected with typically a day and a half, sometimes 2 days between charges. I did not realize at first that it really only works when paired to the watch. It says it has Wi-Fi, but I've never really gotten it to work, but I'm not really concerned. The watch face is also slightly taller than I would prefer, or it should have more of a curve. And the band was of lower quality than I expected, but since it uses standard 22mm pins, it was easy enough to replace.

    For the price i have to say this is a great watch. It does not have its own connection, only bluetooth. Does fit tracker, you can call and text using it with voice commands. It has over 60 different custom faces to use along with being able to customize each to have certain things on the face such as your steps, watch battery, weather and more. I am happy with my purchase, it doesnt have as many features as maybe a samsung gear watch or apple watch but its a fraction of the cost.

    Since heart rate monitors are not accurate, why spend $200 more for a watch that has one? This watch charges from 0 to 60 percent in 15 minutes! Hypercharge The screen is great even outside. Battery life is about 2 days with moderate usage which is better than many others. The hardware platform is the same as smart watches that cost much more. The back was easy to change. Use a screenguard to protext the screen. No flat tire effect as is seen on some round watches. It's mega comfortable and bezels aren't too bad although they are large.

    I had my doubts as to whether this purchase would actually prove to be of any worth to me, but I quickly discovered that is was a wonderful assett to my business. mainly because of its email alert, and by the flip of my wrist was able to read messages without having to dig for my android, sometimes inconvenient. I also appreciate its health info, especially its tracking of steps taken during the day---vital to my health. It was actually the cheapest smart watch on the shelf, but I am amazed with how much information it covers.

    It wasn't for me. Had it for a week and really wanted to love it but it was bulky and would rather pay for a nice watch then a smart one.

    Watch itself is very nice looking. This model also includes a quick charge option, so it won't take hours and hours to recharge. I do find the interface itself to be a little clunky. Swipes from the sides of the screen almost always do not register. It also has a huge face. For the price it is good, but there are better options available if you can afford to spend a little more. If not, for the price, I would purchase again.

    This Asus zenwatch 2 replaced my husband's previous Samsung gear 2 smart watch. The display is bright and clear, the watch has almost all of the same features except you cannot text from this watch. This watch does NOT have a camera. Works with many of the Android apps. Holds a charge for over a day with typical use. Band is secure and is of fake leather but looks nice. Overall, my husband likes it.

    This is a great, basic, smart watch! It works really well with my phone. I love the fact that I can use the watch as a speakerphone (as long as I am connected via Bluetooth or wifi with my phone). You can use Google Maps with directions. You can even play music from the watch (you can upload music directly to the watch and listen via the watch itself, or Bluetooth speakers/headphones). Great watch for a great price!

    Great Smartwatch for the $

    This is my first review for anything I've purchased. I was looking for a smartwatch mostly since I had a bad habit of missing calls with my phone either at my desk or in my pocket and not feeling the vibrations. I didn't want anything super expensive since I wasn't looking to control the world or replace any family members with it so I had originally purchased a Pebble Time, which is about $15 less than this. Before I opened it , I got home and read some more reviews on it and saw one guy that recommended the Zenwatch 2, which I had seen right next to the Pebble at BB. After comparing the two, I had to try it so I returned the Pebble and got the Z2. I love the full color touch screen. The watchfaces available are great and I love that you can use your own pictures as the background in some. The compatibility with my S6 is great. I like getting the texts and being able to answer them from the watch. The simple Google voice commands for weather and other simple tasks is great for what I use. Not too much and just enough where I don't have to bring out the phone every time. The speakerphone ability is great too. I never thought I would be that dude talking to his watch but to my defense I haven't done it in public. Only in my car or at home. If you're looking for an entry level smartwatch that looks great and does just enough without costing a kidney, I would highly recommend this watch. The battery life is great, the magnetic fast charger is wonderful, I wish our phones had this.

    Bought for my father. Found the set up and connection to phone easy. Tweaking took a little more time, but bringing up the manual on a computer was needed. It may not have the fancy apps that other devices have - but he was looking for something to provide notifications (check), tell time (check!), and it would be a plus to track steps (check.) It is also a very attractive timepiece. Great color.

    This was my first smart watch ever. As I wasn't 100% sure what I was expecting, I was surprised by the capabilities it. The only downfall is what apps can work with the watch and Android Wear (I realize that is up to each app developer). Otherwise, this is a quality item and an above-average choice for my first piece of wearable technology.
