    Amazing Smartwatch!!!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is the first smartwatch worth buying. With a sleek, stylish and classy design as compared to other bulky watches, this thing looks amazing. The battery lasts all day in "screen always on" mode, and for multiple days for "screen off mode" which is much more useful anyways. The custom watch faces from Asus are very nice as well. It is surprisingly useful! Being able to send quick messages via voice and even getting GPS directions on your wrist, plus all of your Google Now notifications. You can even order something from Amazon from the watch... Its also nice to be able to control your phone's music right from your wrist. The Asus exclusive apps are very useful as well. You wont regret this purchase. Easily the best Android Wear watch available... and for the price it cannot be beat!

    I love this watch

    I bought this watch for my sister after shopping around online and in store. The watch looks great and works even better. It took my sister a few hours to figure it out (she refused to use the directions). After a system update and full charge the watch worked perfectly. Definitely a great buy. Glad I didn't pay an extra 200 for the Samsung gear. Absolutely love it.

    My First Wearable-Watch

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Well, as tile, it is my first wearable watch Before purchasing it, my friend who was in IFA just told me that ZenWatch is very different in terms of ID. Not like others, it is metal-housing with 100% leather Strap, very elegant!! Much different from other brand’s rubber ones or plastic-style It was proved at the moment I open the box. Really good-looking; that’s amazing!!! I do think it can fit both business & casual style. I guess Asus really invests a lot resource to study "taste"; even deco with handmade stitch on strap. No mention the curve-glass design just like a real watch but a 3C product… Anyhow, guys, try to get one before your friend already wear

    I love everything about the watch. My wife got it for me for our anniversary. I use this watch all day on highest brightness with 'stay on' turned on, lasts all day. I brag about it all the time. Functionality is soooo smooth. I also have no trouble with the charging cradle. Just buy the watch and try it for two weeks, if you don't love it you can return it or exchange it or something.

    It's the best android wear watch for the money. It's design looks very classy and it feels comfortable. The clasp is very easy for putting the watch on and taking it off. I found the the battery barely lasts a day with low to average use so you have to charge it nightly. How stupid is it that you have to worry about running out of power on your watch every day? Should be at least three days (realistically). Now android wear itself is the biggest issue. It needs more development in several departments. You get the slightly more than occasional glitch. I found that half the time you want to use your voice for texts or searches, It will try to load what you say and end up saying "disconnected", which it wasn't. And even if it does get the words right and load, it's still slow. But most of all, google just needs to give it more capabilities like a gmail app or seeing a picture sent to you in a text. I would just say that android wear just isn't ready yet to the point where it's not useful enough. I think that this watch isn't worth spending more than $100.

    One of the Best Smartwatches To Date

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Before my purchase of the Asus Zenwatch, I have had the Sony Smartwatch 2 and the Samsung Gear 2 Neo and the Zenwatch just blows them out of the water. I love the color scheme and how sleek the watch looks. Android Wear is a perfect OS and I have had relatively no problems at all with this watch.

    ASUS did a really good job on ZenWatch.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    First, I have to say ASUS ZenWatch is the most beautiful watch with premium and fashion that I’ve seen among current Android Wear watches. ASUS ZenWatch has stainless steel body, with a slightly curved screen that adds to the jewelry aesthetic. The rose gold colored stitched leather looks great, and feels good on my wrist. And you can swap the ZenWatch's band with any standard (22 mm) strap. After few days with my ZenWatch, I will recommend it to my friends. The battery life dropped around 2%~3% per hour with very light use, and around 3%~5% per hour with normal use. The always-on display is really convenient for me to know the time and date. In addition, I can know my step counting easier, and if I want to check my pulse, just put my two fingers on either side of the watch’s front. I’m also download the ZenWatch manager app to help me unlock my phone without password and find my watch if I lose it. Two minor feedback to ASUS. ZenWatch has a lower water resistance compared with other Android Wear watches. But IP55 can protect splashes and rain shower, maybe it is good enough for everyone. And ASUS should offer different color leather bands for choice.

    Works well and stylish

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I reviewed allot f the Android watches. Really what was it going to be for and why should I have one were my questions. With Best Buy 15 day policy I wanted to give one a try. This ASUS model is perfect for me. I like its rugged steel frame construction. All the Apps are fine just the same on any other Android Watch. I get my text, email and calendar reminder notices and google maps when driving notices, plus it does useful things I did not expect... The Fitness tracker works the same as compared to my wife's fit bit type band. counts the same steps..etc.. Really you do not need to wear these while you sleep .. allot of hype in that area. This is very stylish business looking watch and still does al the other APP stuff. And again I say is built rugged. Not cheap plastic. I may just go buy another since now Best Buy is dropping the price.

    Best for the $

    I've used quite a few android based watches and this is simply the best for the $. It has enough battery to get through the day and a fast enough processor to not lag when swiping pages. Is there better? Yes, but at a much higher cost.

    Highly recommend to all android device owners. Amazing watch to do every thing you need. Get all sorts of alerts including weather, traffic, emails etc. on your watch. Customize your watch with images or download all sorts of awesome watch dials that make it look surreal !!! Highly recommended buy over all other android smart watch models. Unless you plan to pay with your watch aka "iWatch"... This device has it all you need.

    What a smartwatch should be

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I tried almost all Android wear devices from Samsung to LG and Moto. (I work in this area). They are almost all the same in term of features (Android wear) but wow the zenwatch looks like a real nice watch and not like a huge piece of technology on your wrist! Out of the box, the watchface is really classy and some built in features like the "unlock my phone" are great Battery wise, I am happy with one day since I am charging my phone (and the watch) every night. The zenwatch became my daily watch whenever I wearing jeans or a suit. Nice Job Asus

    I love this watch. After using now for about 2 days I must say this is the best smart watch experience I have had. I turn it on at about 10:00 A.M. and stop using it at about 1:00 A.M. and the batter is only down to 38%. Not bad since I plan to charge every night anyway. I also like how if the watch disconnects from the phone it automatically and seamlessly reconnects. Nothing has to be done on the phone (Samsung Galaxy) to reconnect. So I am really loving the looks and function of this watch.

    This watch its super elegant, super light, super comfortable, super responsive. I love it! Exactly what I wanted, with great screen resolution. The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because it doesn't independently connect to WiFi nor does it take memory card. Other than that, it fulfilled all my expectations.

    Good watch, bad band

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The band is interesting and innovative and atrocious, all at the same time -- it's simply uncomfortable and highly likely to catch on clothing and other items. The watch is a bit large on my wrist, but worth it for the notifications and fun watch faces.

    A Woman's Perspective

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is my first Android SmartWatch, but I have been wearing a Pebble for over a year now. That being said, I am use to and love the convenience of having phone notifications on my wrist... especially when I have my phone in my purse. After much research, I chose the ZenWatch mostly because I'm a 5'8"/130lb woman and the LG G R just looked too big and manly. The ZenWatch is larger than my Pebble, but I am getting use to the size. I actually put my white Pebble band on my ZenWatch... I didn't like the stiff, poopy-colored band it came with. Having all my notifications in color is sweet and much easier to read. One big complaint... I wish this watch had an ambient light sensor. This would be extremely useful. I have the display set to the lowest setting, to help battery life and because it's sufficient indoors. Outside, this setting makes it very hard to read. In a dark room, this setting is VERY bright. Overall, a good watch... though I would still be wearing my Pebble if I didn't get this as a gift. I think in the next year, Android watches will greatly advance in features.
