Anyone here runs with their watch only?
are we able to do so without carrying together our phone alongside?
Any recommended software?

I think currently for Android Wear, only the Sony Smartwatch 3 have built in GPS to be utilize for tracking ur run without bringing ur phone together. brows.gif

Reviews quite bad for SW3. Wait for metal version.

the display have a yellowish tint to it. Otherwise I find it not bad. Gud for joggers.

A bit disappointing that CES 2015 did not unveil more smartwatch though. doh.gif

Agreed.

High price, poor screen and bad charging design. AP import of SW3 already close to RM 950. Not worth it.

It comes down to the usage of it. If let's say for office or casual use, it's not the best design and screen for it. But if u do nid the built in GPS, it's a gud choice or the only choice I shud say. laugh.gif

When paired with ur phone, u can receive notification on ur wrist. When jogging, u can juz leave ur phone behind and make use of the built in GPS for ur jogging apps like Runkeeper. nod.gif

So imho I think it depends on ur usage. laugh.gif

Who sell for 850? eBay seller?

I also don't know. Last I check cheapest was 900+ in Lazada, and that is with some discount. Really curious how the reviewer got his unit at RM850. He said by parallel importer. Not quite sure what that means. rclxub.gif
