Androidwear Watches

[hamz9561]

I'm looking at getting one of these to replace a Casio that is on its last legs. I'm kind of interested on the real world aspects of them. I've read a lot of reviews and wondering if any of the techies here have one and what they think of it.

I'm only interested the Androidwear as I have a Galaxy S4 that it will pair with.

was there a particular watch you were looking at? I dont know a ton about them but If I'm not mistaken androidwear is just the app and there are multiple different models of smart watches out there that are compatible with the app. this one from LG looks pretty nice and I like the charging dock.

The LG Good watch is the one I was interested in. I found it at Verizon for under a $100.

I got mine today and it's up and running. Make sure to install the Android Wear App and connect to the watch using that first. You'll need to be connected to the internet with the phone so that the watch can install the required updates.

Heres a brand new video about a moto android wear smart watch. You may not be interested in the watch but during his review Linus gives some specifics about some know bugs with androidwear if you're interested.I'm not sure if these issues are just with this watch or if its in the app itself.

I already got a LG G Watch and (wait for it).....


It's AWESOME! (Yes, that's for @Rolex) It's nice to be able to see alerts without having to whip out the phone from its case or to be able to start navigating with Google Maps by just speaking the destination.

That is AWESOME!

Even more AWESOMENESS: You can view RCNT on the Android ware browser!
