Hmm, nope. You can't change bands, it doesn't run on Android Wear. And cost $149, will take LG G Watch over this anyday. sad.gif

wow.. looks nice.. thinking of getting 1. just a few questions;

1.Hows the battery life on this? can it survive 1 day without charge?
2.does it handle water well. I mean, if it was raining and rain happen make contat. will it be a problem?
3.Where's the best place online to buy this. don't mind if its a u.s store.

thanks.

1. At first, battery life will drain very fast. After updating to latest firmware and a few charging cycles, you can achieve a day of moderate use without any problems at all. Some can even use Ambient Mode on and achieve this, really depends on your usage. Personally, I can get 16-18 hours ambient mode OFF without any problem.
2. It is IP67 rated, means you can shower with it, splash water, but not recommended to swim or submerge water with it.
3. Currently Malaysia don't have official set yet, although there are rumours that it will be brought in by Brightstar, but still no news. We got our stock either from TechBug, Lazada, or by other forum member who bring it, notably Bro Megat or Bro Shirogawa.

To all Sifu-Sifu,
Help~ Facer watchface won't show up as options on my Moto 360  blink.gif

FYI I've changed from Xperia Z1 to Z2, other Wear apps such as Wear Mini Launcher, Fit, Find My Phone, Kiwi etc are synced onto my watch. But not my Facer?  mad.gif

I've tried Resync all apps, and even tried reset my watch and reconnect. Still same problem, Facer watchface option won't shown up.  hmm.gif
*
Uninstall and reinstall Facer on your phone. Then resync all apps, give it some time ~1 hour and check your Android Wear app again. I assume you are on Android Wear 5.0.1?

Whats the texture like? Similar like the black leather band? Or better?? The black leather seems too soft and will not last long from what i can see.

So far Horween leather for Moto 360 got 2 type:

Black/Stone: Glossy coating, got squeak sound
Grey (Limited): Velvet type surface, non-glossy

I can help you find out which type is it from the G+ community. Give me some time. smile.gif

So far, easiest way is online. Besides DirectD, I am not sure who else sells in retail shop as this is not officially launched in Malaysia yet.

You are mentioning the stock band that comes with MOTO 360 right?
I am talking about the Cognac Brown Leather Band

Are you referring to the same band?
*
Yup, I am referring to the cognac leather band. Its either glossy or velvet-y. Damn, no one replied me on the G+ group lol.

Basically you need to elevate your charger and place the watch around it.

Usually its DIY. Unless they are 3D printers who sells their design.

Yup, you guys got that right. Actually Jason Lim the creator of the project is based in Penang, as well as the manufacturing plant. tongue.gif

Anyways, psyeo you can check standard silicone bands if you want to use for sports. Try wristsolution.com.

Dear Sifus here

looking seriously to get on of this but whats holding me back is the dark strip at the 6 o clock of the watch and we dont have a full face what is the dark strip? and in some photos i dont see it especially white face the strip doesnt seem to be there .

Can anybody explain this to me please thanks in advance.
*
Hi, the dark strap is actually permanent, it does not have a screen there. It houses the display driver and the ambient sensor for the watch. The reason they opt for this design is so that the face of the watch can extend right until the edge. Due to our current limitation in technology, its either this design (edge-to-edge) of the bezel design like the LG G Watch R.

QUOTE(xordMeztGeR @ Jan 17 2015, 11:45 AM)
Yeah I saw that too. But USD60 so expensive, especially since our ringgit is dropping so much. Plus with the SteelConnectM, we can use any standard 22mm strap we want. smile.gif

Hi guys, just a simple "After 1-Month" impression of the SteelConnect M 180. Check it out.

1 Month with the SteelConnectM M180

I was one of the fortunate winners of the Social Contest by SteelConnect: www.steelconnect.co

After a month of use, I can safely say that the risk of backplate cracking with the SteelConnectM has been reduced to zero (may vary between users), I don't use it for sports, mainly traveling and office, commuting etc.

But with this adaptor, the risk is definitely reduced by a mile, as compared to the original leather band or even the Pebble Steel Band, which I also tried.

So, thank you once again SteelConnect for this amazing product. You definitely have something good going on here and you have done a great favor to all Moto 360 users worldwide.

Cheers! If anyone want to pre-order, just look up their website at www.steelconnect.co.

P/S: This personal testimony is 100% voluntary and I'm not affiliated to the SteelConnect team in any way.

Expensive ler, got adaptor liao, then don't need to pay so much for straps liao.

Btw bro, if you don't mind can I share your pic with the G+ Android Wear community? Your photos looks very good haha. smile.gif of course if you mind, then I won't share. Or maybe best if you can share it yourself. tongue.gif

Someonesim Bro, you think NATO Strap too thick for this watch? Should I get ZULU strap instead? And actually M225 more suitable for Nato Strap lol.
