    I can go a full work day and only lost about 15% of my battery life while connected to my phone. I also just recently left my phone at home and got to experience the WiFi connection on the moto 360, I still got all of my updates, I could text and reply to messages, I even got a notification of an incoming phone call and the voicemail that followed. Exactly what I wanted in a smart watch! I didn't even realize how much I used it until I left it at home one day! Anyway, 10/10 would highly recommend! Also, get the geek squad on it! It's tough but I knock this thing around on a daily basis, the watch face is about the size of an prep cookie so it dominates my lady wrist.

    The, design is sharp. So far, the battery life has not been too bad. The strap however feels nice on the wrist but looks cheap. Even looks more like foam than leather. Android Wear is promising. I don't want to make or receive calls on a watch... Nor do I want to look like I'm wearing a PDA on my wrist... Or a calculator watch, for that matter. But I do want the latest tech, style, and convenience of notifications on demand without looking like I'm a slave to my phone.

    I was lucky enough to find one when they were pretty scarce. Bought it to give android wear a test and I'm happy to say Im enjoying what it has to offer and seeing it improve. The 360 is a beautiful watch and feels and looks great IMO, the only issue I had originally was the battery life wasn't that great but as android wear has updated more and more the battery life has improved a lot more (as long as you're not constantly on it or have ambient on you'll last easily through a day)

    My favorite smartwatch...

    Not much needs to be said, other than the fact that the Moto 360 is arguably the best smartwatch around, overall. I came from a Galaxy Gear, and while I miss being able to make and answer phone calls from my wrist, the overall package is much better here, and it is deeply integrated into the Android OS. Aside from that, unlike the Gear and Apple watch, this will work with a plethora of phones and looks sexy. I changed the wristband, and people ask questions all the time. At $250 it was a tough sale, but at $150 it is a steal. It keeps getting better with every update and the battery lasts all day. Qi wireless charging is on tap.

    I enjoyed it primarily for telling time as I don't normally wear a watch, but I don't need to be as connected as the Moto 360 provides. The options for settings, kinds of content, and watch faces were great, I just don't tend to carry my phone on me, and as such couldn't really take advantage of many of the features it offered. For notifications at a glance, it was very convenient, but if you tried to interact with it in a way that was instigating an action, it was a bit painstaking. Overall, if you're looking for a notification based, classy looking smartwatch, this is the one.

    Great Looking Watch, Android Wear Needs Work

    I was so excited for this watch when it was announced. It was the only smartwatch that actually looked like a watch. And it for sure did not disappoint there. It is just flat out sexy looking. The leather band felt great for a day or two but after it broke in my friends told me it then felt cheap which was a shame. That wasn't the problem with the watch, the problem was the operating system in android wear. I basically only used it for getting a quick look at the weather and seeing who texted me and who was calling me. The watch didn't do much else other ththan count my steps which was nice. But I just didn't see a use for it right then and there. Maybe after an update the OS will be great but it needs time to bake. Battery life easily got me threw an entire day and now Motorola has put out a new update (after I returned watch) which apparently doubles the battery life and many people who still have theirs said that it is true. So if you just want texts and calls on a sexy cool looking watch. Get this. I'm personally waiting it out after trying it for a week.

    Love it. Nothing but complements on this beauty my wrist measures 6.75 inches and it looks great. Big not huge, in my opinion that's how a mans watch should be. With the right tweeks I get 3 days on a charge no problem. I love the fact that with the change of the watch face in seconds you go from modern to classic or casual to formal. If not sure about the size go to your nearest best buy and try it on. Even if better nicer ones come out in the future I'm sure this will be a all time favorite.

    Concerned about battery but very surprised

    I read lots of reviews saying the battery on this watch isn't very good. I was surprised when after day 3 I still had enough power to make it through the day. I don't keep the ambient screen on though. The "flat tire" at the bottom of the screen that houses the sensors doesn't really bother me that much. It takes away from some of the watch faces, but I just download ones that are black. When you are looking through notifications the "flat tire" doesn't bother me at all because it is kind of like a little shelf for text to sit on helping with readability. I don't like that I couldn't find one with a brown band from the beginning, so I'm stuck with the ugly gray band in a box in my room. I like that the bands are interchangeable, but don't try to get a regular band from your local watch store. The watch has little plastic "bumps" to reinforce the back which makes the watch require custom watch bands. You can easily work around this by cutting a notch into your watchband to make it fit, but I just bought ones made for it. There are already third party bands designed for the Moto online.

    Beautiful watch, decent battery life

    Moto 360 is a great watch. Battery Life (8 out of 10) - Battery life is fine, I get about a day and a half by the time its at 5%. Sure it is less than the gear 2 but who needs 2 or 3 days of battery when you charge it every night with your phone. Now if I do have the screen on at all times I get about a day, but still enough. Look, feel, and quality (9 out of 10) - The round face looks like a normal watch and doesn't look to big on my wife's small wrists. The leather strap is comfortable along with the smooth bottom of the watch. The watch is also surprising lightweight and is noticeably lighter than the galaxy gear 2. Features (9 out of 10) - Android wear is nice but still very new. I prefer most things on android compared to samsungs tizen (especially apps, better future with Android, most of tizen apps are NOT free and are poor apps). Heart rate monitor seems to work better than the gear 2's. Overall very good watch.

    I've had this watch for over a month and I am extremely happy with it. For $150 it's so affordable yet high quality. It's had 2 updates since I got it and it works extremely well. It's great for notifications and other simple tasks (shopping lists, timers). I mainly love it because it actually looks like a watch and not a piece of tech. It's great to pick so many different watch faces as well as design your own. More apps are being developed for it all the time so that's encouraging. Battery life was something I was concerned about at first but now, especially with the updates, I can get 2 days of use without charging if I wanted to. This is relatively pointless since I charge it every night anyway. Speaking of the charger, this is one of the greatest bonuses of this product. Charging is wireless and the dock is perfect because it acts like a bedside alarm clock. My only gripe is that voice commands and dictation can be frustrating at times but that may improve in the future. Yes this product is a year old but considering what others are charging for a similar product, it's a no-brainer.

    Hey....no complaints here. I've had it for about a month now I think. I have purchased a couple of extra watch bands for versatility. Battery life is not bad. Functionality is great. Love the many watch faces and ability to create them as well. And it's not all......"HEY......look at my smart watch!!!" Can't get anything but better, so hey.....I'm in-

    The initial pricing on these things were little too high for what they are. But the recent drop to 149 was a good price so I jumped on it. I did my research and found out that this is one of the few that has built in WiFi antenna for the price and the only other circular design was the LG Urbane which was 349. The most recent update to 5.1.1 enabled WiFi on these watches where the watch uses WiFi instead of BT if the connection is lost so you don't have to carry around your phone all the time as long as both are connected on same network. The overall design and the performance is nice. People worry about outdated single core processor but I didn't have any issues. I think most of the performance issues were with earlier version of software. Just do the update and all is well. Yes, you do have to charge the battery every night but it won't die on you even during the heavy use. I usually have 35% left when I go to bed and that's around midnight. Takes only an hour to fully charge. This things will only get better but it won't receive a significant update for another year or two so buying something expensive now will just become outdated. You can't go wrong with this in terms of styling and price.

    In my opinion, this is the best choice right now for google watches. The price has come down, the watch looks nice and the google wear interface has come a long way. Best Buy has also come along way. Better prices and better customer service.

    Intuitive and Classy Smart Watch

    I was unsure of investing in a smart watch, and while I'm sure that the eventual Moto 360 2 will be a bit more streamlined, I love everything I can do with the current model. It looks classy without looking like a calculator watch (a key failing of the majority of other smart watches I've seen), its controls are intuitive, and the Android Wear apps are getting better and better (I wish there were greater integration, but there are apps that provide nice work arounds). I've gone nearly 48 hours on a single charge, too. Definitely a quality watch, though I would recommend against buying a screen protector, as they seem to be smaller than the screen and give it a strange glare and the look of having a second bezel.

    It was between this and the Fitbit HR, I made the better decision. This watch has many features that I don't use, I see no real use to answer a phone call with my watch or send a text. I do like that I can read the texts without pulling my phone out of my pocket. That is pretty convenient. I caught the 360 on sale at the same price as the HR and couldn't pass it up. I read so many reviews about the poor battery life, which I don't agree with. I wear it everyday and during workouts and at the end of the day I still have battery. The only time I had less than 10% was when I was tracking a run with 2 different apps and had my music going after wearing all day. The only thing I would recommend is get the metal wristband. They were out so I had to go with the leather. Its a nice leather, but I found out its not treated. So the first workout and shower I stained it. So now I am looking to buy the metal wristband. If you do opt for the leather, make sure you waterproof it before wearing it.

    I was using the pebble smart watch before jumping to the moto 360. So the main thing that attracted me was the style. And the quality of materials is incredible. Stainless steel, leather band, gorilla glass. If you are stuck on deciding weather to get it or not, I'd say its worth the investment. Android wear is still very young at this time, but it will only get better over time. The moto 360 set a new standard for smart watches and will cause developers to want to make applications to run on something so beautiful and popular. Battery life is incredible. Lasts me two days easy! Customization and ease of use are great too.

    Design of the watch is amazing. I prefer the circular face to the square face as it makes the device look like a watch. I think this makes it look professional. The device allows me to view/respond text messages (using many different applications) or emails without having to pull out my phone. Battery life is great! I put the watch on at 6 in the morning and don't take it off until about 9 at night. The watch lasts all day. All notifications go directly to the watch as well as the phone. It is great to quickly see my notifications from ESPN SportsCenter, SMS, Phone Calls, and EMails directly on the watch.

    Better than I expected

    I'd been waiting on this watch for just over 6 months (announcement in March, on sale in September). I had a Pebble Steel on order in February but when this was announced I immediately cancelled that order - no matter how long I would have to wait for the Moto 360 to be released. I ordered the Silver/Gray and am very impressed with the overall look/feel of the watch and materials used. I've received numerous compliments and inquisitive looks from people. Even had my dentist ask what kind of watch it was since it had a black face :) Overall, it's more than I expected in the look/feel/function departments. Look - not as big as I was expecting it to be (definitely a plus) Feel - much lighter than I was expecting - barely know it's there half the time (another plus) Function - here's another area I've been impressed with. This is my first smart-watch and as far as function goes - I know it isn't supposed to replace my phone (LG Nexus 5). I've seen many reviews/comments from people wishing there was a way to type on a keyboard on the watch or browse the web. Since it's running android, I'm sure there are plenty of entrepreneurial people out there that can/will make those things happen. For me, the beauty of android wear (and this watch) is being able to (at a glance) see what notifications are coming into my phone and either take action on them on the watch, or dismiss them on the watch/phone so I don't have to worry about them - all without taking my phone out of my pocket. The list of wear-compatible apps is growing by the day and there is definitely even more potential for this watch/android wear. From a battery life perspective, I was also skeptical after reading initial reviews. After a couple of android wear software updates over the last 6 weeks, the battery life has kept improving. I can easily get through a day without worrying about whether my watch is going to be able to even tell me the time later on that night. A typical day for me has the watch off the charger (at 100%) and on my wrist around 7:30am. As I'm writing this, it's 1:10pm and it still has 76% left. Most nights when I go to bed (around 11pm or 12am) there is still at least 30% or so left. Actual mileage will, of course, vary based on how often you're using it and what you're using it for. At $250 it is a bit pricey compared to other current offerings in this space. However, it is cheaper than other high-end watches you can buy as well. If you're debating whether or not to get this vs something else out there in the smart-watch arena - stop debating and place an order. You will not be disappointed!

    As the moto360 was announced several months ago, I was initially super excited. It was clearly the best design out of the bunch of first releases. Having a pebble at the time, I was excited for the upgrade. Then the intital reviews came through with horrible stories about battery life being dismal. I put a hold on the purchase and said, "maybe this isn't the watch for me." Jump to last week, Moto releases an update that many users reported as significantly increasing battery life and I was back in. Had the watch for 3 days now and can say it's great. The design is beautiful. The functionality is as expected. The battery gets me from morning to late evening (I'm getting about 18 hours of moderate to heavy use, lots of emails, texts, some navigation, etc). It's also still new so I probably play with it more than I will a month from now. All that said, it's first generation and I'm sure I'll be jealously eyeing the next version as hardware improvements come into play. I'm happy to get Wear on my wrist. If you're interested in being an easy adopter, I don't think you can go wrong here.
