Yay, I will get my Urbane this weekend.

Also bought TGSP and steel band from Lazada.

I am using Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (Android 5.1.1), which is a better smart tracker (Xiaomi Band, Xiaomi Band S1 or Samsung Galaxy Gear Fit?

Normal steel band or those fancy one like Milanese band ? I ordered mine from ebay, waiting delivery ( 2 weeks I think, from China/HK )

Haha normal one only...

This one: http://www.lazada.com.my/22mm-stainless-st...er-2274567.html



Got it via Lazada app, got RM10 cashback and got March App discount.

I gave up waiting for gemfive to restock or at least let us know when they r restocking and bought the zenwatch 2 already. I'm sure they'll restock a day or 2 after i buy. Lol. Bought the black one & its beautiful & so far so good. Just finished syncing & do some settings. This is my first wearable and i think it'll need some learning before i get it all. Few questions to the pros, when I'm at a place with wifi & both phone & the watch are connected to the wifi, can i switch off bluetooth? And there's a message on the watch asking me to get google play services as it is required for android wear to function. I hv it installed on my phone & it's not disabled or anything and I'm using s6 edge. So far i receive all notifications on the watch.

For wifi connected, can turn off bluetooth or not. Most likely, but not 100% sure.

For the message, question is have you install Android Wear ? Maybe you will need proprietary apps from Asus ( Moto 360 will prompt you to install Connect apps, HW no apps )

If you buy the leather zenwatch 2 can you change with normal aftermarket steel?

Yea. Already installed android wear. All sync process are ok with tutorials done. The message was not the 1st message that came in. It came after quite a while. Asus got a zenwatch manager app which is not necessary to be installed but I've installed that too.

Can. As long as same size as original strap.

FYI AW update (MM) has been pushed to Zenwatch 2 smaller size (WI502Q), just received it today.
But yet to have still for the bigger size (WI501Q) though..

Wonder y the diff time? Its under the same company same specs only size diff..? Thinking of getting zenwatch 2 today..

Maybe because the bigger one have speaker and some new feature for speaker needs additional code

Well, looks like the larger 1 has no stock everywhere... Been to directD, mid valley thundermatch, all no stock..which is a bummer..

All IT klcc got one more 1.6" rose gold yesterday. I took the black one. Lol. Looks like each store didn't take a lot of stock for this watch. Asus low yat didn't even take any model.

Well, looks like no choice but to wait a little longer then.. if they will even restock...

Satu Gadget still have stock.

Thanks! Will check that out!

ZW2 owner rejoice.. OTA 6.0.1 just arrived. Found this link while browsing. http://www.androidsage.com/2016/03/04/inst...sus-zenwatch-2/

Now.. where can i get 1? xD

pebble time or zenwatch 2? both have pros and cons. anyone who already tried both android wear and pebble time before? which one more usefull? whats your takes? will you gaing back to pebble or stick to android?

My 3rd Android Wear Device - The LG Watch Urbane

Coming from the 1st Gen Moto 360, some of the few things I like about the Urbane:

Better Battery Life: Even with Always-On, this device can definitely outlast my Moto 360, even when my Moto 360 doesn't have Always-On.

Smoother Performance: The smoothness in performance is pretty obvious here, much less choppy as compared to the Moto 360, especially during voice commands/replies. Also the screen has much better resolution.

No Flat Tire: I know many say they wouldn't mind the FT, but given the choice, I would rather not have the flat tire.

Uses Standard 22mm Straps: As compared to the Moto 360, any standard 22mm strap can be easily fitted on the watch. I had to use the SteelConnect M for the Moto 360 in order to achieve the same convenience.

Some things I miss:

Lack of Ambient Light Sensor: Lack of flat tire meaning lack of Ambient Light Sensor, which I missed during my time outdoors. Fortunately I don't hang around much outdoors under the sun. Till now I still wonder why can't manufacturers placed the ALS somewhere else and still giving the full circle. I guess it's the limitation of technology.

Design: Probably it's only my first day with the Urbane, but I still find Moto 360's overall design looks better. The lugs on the Urbane looks awkwardly large. But I do like the chrome finish of the Urbane though.

Thank you for reading. Loving the Urbane so far. Glad I made the jump, also got a great deal for this, SGD229 from Qoo10.SG

Congrats
So true on battery life. Moto 360 ( without AlwaysOn ) I reached home with around 60% battery life. HW ( and most other AW with modern SOC ) reached home with 60% but AlwaysOn ( and not the Motorola's half-fake AlwaysOn )
Just like you, I really wanted Auto Brightness. True I rarely go outdoor too, but yesterday at Broga hill, damn it having difficult time to read time outside
