PM me if you dont mind used set, mine dusted in drawer

It's good, interface are smooth after AW 2.0 update.

I was underestimated them before as well, but now knowing they own/licenses many many brand ( Misfit, Skagen, Armani, Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs, Kate Spade ), and thus many AW are actually under Fossil or using their tech/design.

Above those brand's AW actually not too bad, and keep releasing newer gen product. While those 'technology' brand like Motorola, LG those already stop release newer AW.

Google's own AW might be coming, based on speculated leak.
Google traditionally use fish name for their device, medaka ( tiny fish ) just found in AOSP summit with attachment to Wear OS team

Next update for Wear OS, tiles

I wish Google spend more resource to optimize Wear OS, after so many years, still practically one day battery life ( I can last 2 days if only sync less than 12 hours per day )

I've used few AW watches, since 1st gen product.
Currently still owning ticwatch e and fossil Q explorist, ticwatch did have longer battery life nearly 2 days due to less powerful internal.
Overall I think no difference, whether 1day / 1.5days / near-2days, because you'll definitely charge it at the end of the day.

Huawei watch GT really looks good. Next to my Fossil Q Explorist

Hehe did the survey
I almost trigger for TicWatch Pro ( become ~210USD ) but I still like my current one so skip for now.

NATO strap, more 'character'
And usually are universal compatible.

Many place sell it, just price difference.

I usually get from this oversea site called CheapestNatoStrap
Almost cheapest, but high quality.

damn I would suspect the watch casing squeezed it ( repeated daily over hot/cold temperature ) till the glass break.

I'm using 4th gen Fossil AW, no issue on battery. I dont think there's significant difference between most AW, they have similar SOC and relatively small battery. Fossil group owns many many watch brand ( or licensed to make watch for them ), so internally similar.
What I notice that got difference are mediatek SOC have better battery life, but can notice lower performance.

GT2 is not Android Wear. Not saying I support AW exclusively, but mostly I 'trust' it better for software. There's possibility I'll move away and test other smartwatches, as I mostly bought smartwatches ( so far all AW ) for aesthetic/looks and notification only.

Well that's almost accurate, most AW only last 8-10 hours in real life. One day battery life is normal.

That one, fake smart type can la, those fitting tracking, tiny screen.

I dont have issue with one day battery life smartwatches, did you charge your phone everyday, did you charge your laptop everyday, so why not another gadget

better apps support, better notification, better function ( reply, voice support etc ? ), better OS update.

With more power ( functionality ), use more power ( energy )

I bought 3rd gen at end of 2018 same Qualcomm 2100 with gen 4
Cant sure how much improvement on gen 5, as it's using new gen Qualcomm SOC.

I might be bias/unjustifiable, as I use Google Android's smartwatch since 1st gen ( Moto 360, Asus zenwatch, Mobvoit ticwatch E, Fossil Q explorist )
Definitely not in 'totally smooth' category. Super smooth when notification come in etc, but when you go and swipe/touch/control it, can feel the sluggish.

Mobvoi ticwatch arent bad, I bought during kickstarter campaign, they have few successful project and several generation/model of AW product already.
Their latest Ticwatch Pro looks good ( muscular large ), dual mode display for up-to-30-days battery life. My two AW upgrade choice will be Ticwatch Pro and Fossil gen 5.

Another recommendation from above post, Skagen Falster 3 is good looking choice.

Not easy to recommend AW anymore, lesser choice with more manufacturer left. Half-ass effort from Google, half-ass effort from SOC, near-non-existence sales.
Apple single-handed ( 50% market share ) defeat all non-Apple smartwatches/fitness type combined

IMO, somehow price reflect product quality. Those over rm1k smartwatches ( TicWatch Pro, Galaxy Watch, Fossil, Apple ) have good review from website.

latest Apple I wont use one even if you give me free ( anti-iphone here ) but no doubt they are king.
