    I really like this watch. I had the Moto 360 before this. It was OK. I think this watch is MUCH better. Great battery life, clear screen, snappy, looks really good, watch can always display info with the always on ambient setting, and I love the alerting features. If you are thinking about a smart watch, get this one.

    I have been learning to love this watch. I had a Samsung Gear 2 that I loved dearly and going to this watch was an adjustment. This watch is a lot better in many ways and though I miss some features I have been impressed with the watch over all. The alerts are amazing! They are easy to setup, in fact pretty much effort less. Though I miss being able to take calls on my watch I can answer them and I can reply to texts, hangouts, IMs right from the watch with voice recognition. I can practice my Spanish with the duo-lingo apps flash cards on the watch. I even found out today that I can shop on amazon from the watch by doing it! It's just so well... Zen. It flows. The battery is the hardest thing as it only lasts about 24 hours but it charges pretty quickly.

    I was VERY skeptical and I truly expected this watch to have major shortcomings. My biggest concern was battery life. I have read reviews in other sites, but I have no battery problems whatsoever. I usually have 40-50% battery life before I plug it into the charger. I have downloaded a few Android Wear apps that have fixed Wear issues (how to keep an app open on my watch when the phone's display goes to sleep as an example). This watch is amazing and I have received many compliments and iPhone users asking me about it. Their response is usually "I'll wait for an iWatch", but they have no clue that you can customize this watch and download apps that will provide even more functionality! You really cannot beat this watch when it comes to price, looks, and build quality. You will definitely not be disappointed if you decide to purchase this amazing smartwatch. I strongly feel that it looks even better in person.

    I bought a Samsung Gear at the same time to compare the two, Zen watch wins. Love androidwear, that alone made the difference. Battery good, comfortable to wear.

    I got the watch as a Christmas gift and I love the design. It doesn't feel overdone or flimsy. It has the perfect weight and feel to it. My one complaint is I have an 8 inch wrist and the watch kinda hurts to wear. The part where the strap attaches to the watch is angled awkwardly so the band has a boxed fit on my wrist (just picture putting a rectangle on your wrist and its moving around) and hurts when the watch moves around. I'm trying to stretch out the band make it rounder to see it helps. As far as features go android wear is new, so the features we can use are limited but should suffice for basic use. The asus apps are nice but also limited, especially when compared to the android wear options. If you have a wrist smaller than 8 inches I would recommend for sure or I advise you go to Best Buy and try it on first.

    This is a classy watch, well made materials, and standard features. Only thing bad i can say about it is that it lacks the ability to make a call through the watch as there is no speaker. There is a mic however so you can still text through it but unlike other watches (such as Samsung Neo 2 that i had before this) it doesn't have a speaker on the watch. It's a great watch otherwise and perfect for females that want that elegant look and not "look im a smart watch" look.

    Every time i wear this watch people comment on the appearance and say "its a really nice watch, is that the i watch" no for fraction of the cost it does the same except for talking/conversations. You can set voice command for texting and emailing. It sinks with your google contacts. You can play games and listen to music. It has 4gb of storage. For the price it cant be beat. The watch also has gorilla glass so it doesnt scratch as easy as the iwatch..and a leather band and not just this plastic watch..

    It is difficult to view when outside, even with the brightness turned all the way up. It disconnects from the phone via bluetooth a bit too frequently. It doesn't have any lag time and is very fast and efficient.

    Got this for my wife because it was the one watch that looked good for a women. It did everything you expect an android wear watch is suppose to do but with the limit of a 10 meter (roughly 30 feet) radius for Bluetooth technology you still need your phone. If that's not a big deal it's an awsome buy. I'm leaning towards the stand alone watches for myself like the LG Urbane LTE.

    1 month into this watch, I have been very impressed. The watch is stylish, especially after upgrading the band to a steel option. The features of android wear are solid, and the added UP feature to sync with UP and myfitnesspal is great. The only improvement I would vote for is battery life...charging every day is a bit of a nuisance.

    Fantastic elegant device that has a dress style. Functions like other Android Wear watches with it's own custom innovations and a battery life that can almost go 48 hours before having to charge.

    I must admit i love assess products from their motherboards to now wearables. As i expected then attention to detail is so thoughtful i.e.the watchband latch for swapping bands simp,y ingenious its a great watch as well as a cellphone sidekick. It sits next to my moved in my watch case. It as great apps for administering that whole cellphone sidekick thing. I own a two asus mb and t701 and an asus laptop an asus nexus 2013. and now the zen watch. Great products all.

    The Zenwatch is a great smartwatch at a incredible price as newer generation watches make their way. Its aspect is incredible as it looks formal. The strap might not be of your like as its locking mechanism is a little bulky, especially if you have small wrists. The strap needs some time to get loose as it is really tough and hard when new. As android wear included support for wifi in recent updates, this smartwatch lacks wifi, which means you have to have your phone nearby all the time for it to get notifications and use the phone apps. Battery life is better than the moto 360 as it can last a day with frequent use and with the screen on all the time.

    I am really enjoying this watch. The battery life has been great and it has integrated seemlessly into my life. I now look at my watch when my phone rings instead of trying to find my phone in my purse or in the house. I love all of the features and espically love being able to send a text with my wath. All in all a good buy.

    I originally had the Samsung Gear Live device, running Android Wear. The ASUS ZenWatch is essentially very similar in function, but it looks SO much more like a "jewelry" type watch! I prefer it over the Moto 360, which looks like a huge, thick oreo on the wrist! Highly recommend getting this watch!

    This watch is great, I know when I have incoming calls since I can't hear my phone when it is in my purse. I have my credit card alerts set up for every purchase so my watch alerts me every time a purchase is made as I am standing at checkout, love that. Love seeing text messages and being able to respond to them. I don't really use the health part of the apps since I am disabled but I have been told they work great too. Easy to read face love the custom options. Battery life is great lasts just as long as my phone and I can use a portable power pack to recharge it. Just wish it had more apps options.

    Looks good. Battery lasts a full day, but little more. Android wear is a little confusing after using the Pebble, but I warmed up to it. Screen is visible in most conditions and sunlight mode truly works. Great value for the price.

    I bought this to replace a Gear Live (the charging cradle failed). The band is stylish and comfortable and the watch gets great battery life and comes with many custom high quality watch faces. The charging cradle is easy to use and very robust. I also got a price match (which was easy and quick) so it was win win!
