Read a few more reviews on Moto 360. It seems Moto 360 does in fact not having good battery life, but few reliable review site ( phone arena, Gizmodo ) does stressed out that it wasnt as bad as you heard. It could last one full day with Ambient mode OFF, or close to one day with ambient mode ON.
According to them, Moto 360 had brightest display of all Android Wear currently, and thus with ambient mode ON, if your outdoor etc display will pump up to brightest and thus affect battery life. Also worth mentioned is that it had heart rate monitor on all the time.
PhoneArena did mentioned about performance that while it's not laggy, it's definitely behind G watch/Gear live.
Above are my conclusion after reading some of these review. I think I'm not happy with Motorola for having this old processor and small battery, because given their effort on phone for optimization and good battery life, if we had S400 and 400mAh in Moto 360 ( as per G watch ) then Moto 360 should be good for even 2 days.
That been said, it's still the best looking Android Wear ( or smartwatch after seeing Apple's dull design ), that's my only choice now.
Yes totally agree.
It is the best looking andorid smartwatch out there.
But the choice of picking TI omap 3 really sucks.
According to iFixit: "This is the same processor found in the Motorola Droid 2, and the MOTOACTV, Motorola's first smartwatch—2010 and 2011 tech."
So they probably want to save the engineering cost.
Also, in some moto360, the battery is only 300mah not 320mah.
