ZenWatch 2 - Is it's Available To Buy? - Asus ZenWatch 2

Is Asus Zenwatch 2 already in the market?
It looks similar with Zenwatch 1

Zenwatch price drop by so much that I went to buy it. I think I can live with the daily charging and lack of a crown button at the side. Who else is with me?

Me, especially with the latest firmware upgrade (LCA43). :good:

512 RAM is not enough!!!

Am I missing something from the next gen of Android Wear watch??? Same Processor, same RAM, same Resolution, same Storage.
For Asus, we are getting a crown button, better battery according to them, but the sandwich design is gone which I simply love.
For Moto, they switched to Snapdragon 400, lol. The flat tire is still there.
For the rest, I don't know. It seems the whole world is switching to round watch except Asus (Oh yeah!, I love Rectangular watch)

ZenWatch 2 are also bringing WiFi connectivity.

Good price, but otherwise seems a bit meh to me. I'll be sticking with my old one and see what the new Moto looks like.

The ZW1 uses two fingers on the sides of the face to measure heart rate. I don't know how the ZW2 will measure it.

Zenwatch 2 is the same. ....

Actually it's not. They removed the heart rate sensor.
On topic: The watch is available for order on the Google Store. You can preorder three versions of the watch at Bestbuy.com. It looks like it will only be available online. I preordered mine and it should arrive on Friday

I got mine. Gunmetal w/ navy leather strap from Google store. I replaced the band with a black metal one anyway.
I like it a lot, think it looks better in person. Seems pretty responsive and only drained about 15% battery after 4 hours.

Amazon, any 22mm band will work but you'll need the spring bars and spring bar tool (or you can just take it to a jeweler)
I got this one,

Picked one of these up at my local Best Buy store last night. Will play around with it for a while and see if I like. Price was right!

Just picked one up at Best Buy and they matched a cheaper price from Amazon.

Galaxy Gear or Pebble for Note 3?

I'm about to upgrade to the Note 3 and am seriously considering a smart watch for notifications as the many layers of protective clothing I have to wear will make getting the Note out a John Cleese scene.
I've been looking at 3, the Sony. The g g and the pebble. Obviously the hg is the one made specifically for this phone but I am baulking at the price which is an eye watering £250...about $400 US. No idea why Samsung UK have priced this so high. Might be cheaper in the Euro Zone.
I'm a wee bit cautious about the galaxy gear as mist reviews haven't been great and it looks a bit unadaptable for an android device, were the price lower I would probably go for it.
As I can get a pebble for half the price, and I've been really impressed at the 3rd party content etc. I'm leaning towards pebble + a plantronics pro headset rather than a gear with the guilt in **** Tracey speaker.
Is the galaxy gear as bad as all that?

The only downside ever to the Gear is that it only supports Galaxy devices - but you will be using a Note 3, so it's the better option.
HOWEVER, the Gear 2 is probably coming very, very soon.
Thanks, I might wait to see what the gear 2 looks like, after all if I get a pebble it will likely be the steel one and they recently launched here and costing top dollar.

Pebble. I myself is rocking a pebble with note 3 and it is excellent. Plus new appstore coming on Monday enables u to dl apps much easier. Gear has lousy battery life too...

The SmartQ Z-Watch is another option that I am looking at.
I also have been using my Pebble with my Note 3. Have you had any luck getting the one - handed operation to work when the phone is connected to the Pebble?

Looked at the Sony as well but the pebble does do them on price. I've got a few issues with the watch functionality of the gear. If I'm going to wear this rather than my Seiko sports military watch, a lovely automatic , it has to be able to tell you the time without having to be woken up.
The gear 2 if sold at this price point is probably out of contention for me, unless it is a significantly splendid gadget, I simply wouldn't spend 250 quid on a watch that will date in 18 months, far better to spend half that on a pebble, the sheer volume of 3rd party pebble apps is a good indicator of support, I don't see Sony getting there and like Sony's tablets and phones, its a well screwed together item let down by clunky oem skin and apps.

I am planning to get the Pebble in white to match my white note 3, the Pebble has a good battery life, the time is always displayed, and you can put any 22mm strap on it, if the strap breaks on the Gear, then you have had it, as it's not replaceable and it houses the camera.
Go for Gear, if you have come across this far to customise Note 3 you will never be disappointed if you drop by http://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/samsung-galaxy-gear to do what others can not.
You can compare Peeble battery with Gear which only stand for 2 days but what about features and mods to browse Internet, games, gps, video chat it`s like comparing your old Nokia to your new Note 3 which the old Nokia can extend battery to one week compare to Note 3 for only 2 days.
Read the Gear threads to find parts not only strap.

Thanks. I'm reasonably confident at rooting phones, my current htc is rooted. I might read up the galaxy gear forum as you suggest. At the end if the day the issues I have apart from cost are the sort if issues you can fix by rooting which is why I did my HTC. I could always buy a second hand one off the bay and see how I get on. This would also negate having to wait for the gear 2 to come out. I drive an old jaguar and an old Citroen CX precisely because it is tried and tested technology and anything you can possibly have to face with either vehicle has been faced by others who have documented the fix.
The greatest thing the internet has done for me is enabled an archaeologist like me to move into a technical mechanical and chemical engineering and set up a business by others sharing their expertise with me. All you need is a brain some hands and access to the right tools! I'm being a total wuss...this is xda developers...its only an ickle watch, how hard can it be!

Ok, plan will be to get a gear and root it to another theme that sorts some of the issues.

Had the gear and returned it and got the pebble. The pebble is absolutely amazing. Week of battery. And the Tasker Integration brings the functionality of this watch to a whole new level.

I have the Gear, and I have rarely used it. It's not what I expected but it is a first attempt by Samsung, I am also considering swapping mine for a Pebble especially now the pebble store is going live soon.
Does either watch have a heavy duty 3rd party removable protective case eg like the trident ones for the 'phones? I have several restoration projects coming up that see me in workshops and building sites etc. I want the watch so the phone can live under my protective gear and I will use a platronics headset. I guess the pebble steel might be the toughest option. Can spotify and audible apps extension be mounted on the pebble?

Torn between the martian, the GG, and the sony2, and maybe even the quallcom TOQ. As for the gear, price is dropping, best buy is already down to 250. If it gets to 200 even, I'm getting it.

Just bought a nearly new Gear from eBay. I see that Pebbles are now down to 100 quid in the UK with 2nd hand decent ones coming in at 75. I might buy a pebble as well due to its waterproofing, I'm outside at work a lot in wet Scotland. But I might wait till the pebble steel becomes a bit more available, its the first 'normal' smart watch and the steel construction is a winner re protection

VR Goggles

Anyone found any goggles on ebay (or elsewhere) that will fit the Nexus 6? Would be fun to try out...

Knox Labs has this new one that works with the Nexus 6 and they specifically mention that they increased the lens diameter. I didn't see any information about that from I Am Cardboard so I left a message asking about it. Their parts kit has 25mm, but they might have changed it for this build.

The design also is tweaked in other ways. It mentions microsuction as well, probably instead of rubber band which isn't in pictures.

Google Cardboard Virtual Reality Kit
I have purchased google cardboard from getcardboard(dot)in and my Nexus 6 phone fully fit to it. They are also selling Virtual Reality box on amazon for international orders.
Okay, the Knox ones didn't ship, but now they are releasing an updated version called Knox Next that works with more than just the N6 and is officially Google Cardboard certified.
Has anyone actually tried any of these?
My wife bought me a Dodo case Google Cardboard VR headset. It was a complete PITA to put together (not helped by the fact that one of the parts was missing) and, although it just about works, it gives me a headache after about three minutes. It also doesn't have a headband so holding onto it for more than a few minutes gets old very quickly.
Some of the eBay ones are very cheap (< £10) so I might just try one of these and see how well it works.

I just bit the bullet and went ahead and ordered the Knox Next. Has anybody actually received one and tried it yet? I am curious how Knox Labs is at product quality and delivery. I know, it's cardboard, can't expect too much, but man, $27 for it, better be worth it. When I placed my order, there is no information on whether there was stock or any other availability status.
For the Nexus 6, there are only a few other options and based on some reviews from Amazon, they are not very good, for example cheap lens that fall out.
Hey guys!
I'm an owner of the Nexus 6 since 1 month and now I'm interested in virtual reality cause with my old Nexus 4 i think there was no possibility because of the low screen resolution
And now I'M looking for VR Goggles. I can't really find one for such a big screen. Does somebody have an idea where to get one? Mybe a plastic one.
a quick search led me to xingear by imcardboard
pricey but does it work/hold up well?
I saw an article on CNET about the Homido headset. Rick Broida said it was comfortable.

I recently purchase VR Box and so far it's not too bad. It fits the Nexus 6 (barely) but it's not able to run Google cardboard apps. You can purchase an NFC chip, which I did, to run them. Hopefully it'll work.

I purchased the VR Box 2.0 on Amazon and it works well with N6. I purchased it from this particular seller because of the better Wii style Bluetooth remote that it comes with. The smaller key fob style remote didn't work as well.

I bought a pair of cardboard goggles by Minkanak (never heard of them). They're well constructed, but the way they have the setup specifically for a N6, the power button turns it off. It takes a bit of tweaking, but I got it to work. For under 20 bucks you cant go wrong. It's very cool. I tried porn with it and it is bizarre LOL! The effect of flying and roller coasters are very cool too. Be careful with what you buy because that button issue is a pain in the ass.

[Q] still worth it?

i found this watch for around 80 euro online. i am wondering how it has held up this long for everyone else as the guy i am buying it from said he bought it near the release date or is it worth it to add the extra money and get the g watch r
Check the hardware specs.
G Watch and G Watch R are nearly identical.
(G Watch R has the Round Display, 10mAh more battery and also a pulse sensor.)
I orderd a G Watch R from Amazon, but sent it back after 2 days.
Was not worth the money (180€).
Now I bought a "used" Lg G Watch for 55€ in excellent condition.
Totally happy with it.

One thing you left out is the display. The G Watch R has an P OLED display which , IMO, is better for a watch and one reason I would upgrade to it if the dang thing weren't so expensive. (Got my G Watch for $89 at Best Buy with free $50 Play Store credit)
I bought my G watch for 50USD used. Excellent watch. I like it better than my 360 overall. I wear my 360 to church and thats it. Only thing I miss from the 360 is the ambient light sensor while wearing my G watch. I won't be getting the G Watch R or the the Urbane since the only thing I find useful is the screen upgrade ( brighter, sharper, and better on power consumption). Not worth 300+ IMHO. I will stay with the G Watch till a worthy successor comes out that justifies it's price tag.

Yes!
Got my LG G Watch for $90 on Swappa. Totally loving it, and it looks really Geeky. I keep a simple Watch-face and people think it's an ordinary watch, but when I tap the screen, people's mind=blown. With the 5.1W update, the battery lasts me 4 days on moderate use, and this is good, since it used to lasts me only for 1 day on 4.4W. I even put a metal strap on it, so it looks really classy. The fact that it has LCD makes outdoor viewing easy, and there is a very little to no chance of screen burn-in. I don't mind charging it because it takes only 45 min. to completely charge. But the part replacement is really costly.
BOTTOM LINE:Yes, totally worth it.
Just got one last week as an impulse buy. I figured the price was too good not to give Android Wear a shot, and I'm absolutely impressed. Although I did hesitate and nearly purchased the G Watch R, considering both the strengths and limitations of AW at the moment, I honestly don't feel like I'm missing much at all. It buzzes when my messages come in, handles all my voice commands like a champ and the battery sits idle for days when I don't need it. That's pretty much all I expect from the platform, and consider this a pretty good placeholder until some newer generation flies in and actually blows me away.

I'm on the same boat, g watch just got a big discount here in mexico but im worried it might be too late to get it, but it's cheap or should I wait for Moto 360 2
For a basic watch, it is worth getting. I have had the G Watch since Christmas. I have order me a Gear Neo because I want more out of my watch.

Why if you don't mind me asking? AFAIK, the G Watch has better specs then the 360 which relates to faster performance and longer battery life. Aesthetics go, I believe the 360 definitely looks better, has the ambient light sensor and WiFi.

I guess. I wouldn't pay that much this late in the game tho. I got mine for $6 PLUS a $50 Google play egift card in November.
I really like the 5.1.1 update but I'm a tiny bit disappointed we don't have wifi.
I just want my theater mode to vibrate like it used to.
I mean I guess if you get a lot of texts or notifications during the busy part of your day, then sure. But I'd say save your money and get something newer.
I just got in on the $50 ATT deal. To me it's worth it. This is my first smart watch, and it does everything I need it to do. I have a TomTom Runner to cover all of my running needs, and I use the LG G Watch for everyday wear. I got both watches, brand new, cheaper than my wife's FitBit Charge, which she loves. Make sure you do your research and figure out what you want out of a watch. You're going to get a mixed bag of opinions. Just get what fits your needs.
found mine for 60€ (in a stairwell I could only pair it to my phone to make sure it worked).
It's cheaper than a Toy Watch.
update 5.1.1 fixed many issues about screen freezing in 5.0.2 so now it's perfectly usable.
finding a good wristband can be complicated as it's a standard size, there is soooooo many choice (right now hadley roma)
$50 guys. Of course it's worth it. G watch for around $50 or some crappy Disney watch from walmart.
I just jumped on the G Watch bandwagon because I found it refurbished for $45. It was cheaper then some of the chinese models and has Google Play and well supported.
I have been looking at reviews and it seems the G Watch is great for a starter watch. The Samsung Models use a Tizen OS and require a Samsung phone.
Things that I wish the G Watch had:
AMOLED display. Makes sense on a smart watch. The Solid blacks would also look better.
Speaker. This is actually kind of a bummer because if I am in the pool/lake, I can reply/dismiss notifications, but won't be able to take a call.
For me, this was reasoning is to help handle notifications. It is a starter watch that is cheap but good. I don't normally wear a watch, so it will probably end up in a drawer but if I end up really using the device, then I will spend the money to upgrade to one that has everything I need. It is just silly to spend $300 for a high end device if it won't be used.
In a perfect world, I want the Samsung Galaxy Gear S to have an Android Wear model so I can use it on my LG G4. That would be the ideal watch.

I got mine from CowBoom (Best Buy resell site) for $35. It was refurbished but looked 100% new. Had the protective stickers on it and everything. Be careful because some do not include the charger (you can't charge it without the magnetic docking stand).
Update:
They are $59 right now on CowBoom (used). They have lots of them and lots with chargers.
I have just visited the site. It is showing 78% off. Seems to me a great offer for Smartwatch lover. My question is how can they give a smart watch is such a low price? Is there any difference in performance of these smart watch?
I got one for $59 on BuyDig. I had a Moto 360 for a couple of weeks last year, but returned it to Costco. Cool devices, just not $290 cool. The only things I've noticed so far that are lacking compared to the 360 are the heart rate monitor and ambient light sensor. Oh and its much uglier.
Battery life seems to have come a long way in Android Wear since I last had the 360. I would never run out at the end of the day, but it would come close. With the G Watch I can easily get 2 days with screen on at all times. I had the screen turn off when inactive on the 360.
Yes agreed. My battery last plenty long. I went on a 3 day business trip without the charger and had 12% on the 3rd day when I woke up.
People ask me about it all the time and how I like it. I am definitely sold on owning a watch. But they aren't worth more than $100. I can't recommend buying one unless you intend to use it work work or high volume of notifications.
Lots of apps are coming around though. I had a 10 hour drive and found Pandora updated to Android Wear. It was super nice to be able to skip tracks from the watch
For those who wonder why the LG G Watch is so cheap in the second hand market, I think it's because it was bundled with the LG G3 in many countries. So many people had it "for free" and sold it for cheap on internet. I'm even considering buying another one because the charging pin on mine are quite corroded.
Amazon has it for around $80, which compared to the Moto 360 isn't that expensive .

At $130 I couldn't resist myself. I had both a first gen 360 and a LG G watch.... I wonder how long I'll keep this.
Same processor as the moto 360 2015 and it's only 129! Why are people buying the moto 360 for 300$?? I'm clearly confused
Ordered one from best buy. Waiting for it to ship!

Had mine for a couple days now, I got gun metal black with leather straps for $150 from bestbuy. From what I've been hearing, it's related to android wear 5.1.1, but my battery life has been all over the place. Sometimes I get estimates of 2 or 3 days of battery life and sometimes I only get estimated for 8 to 10 hours of battery life, this is with doing nothing different (watch in idle most of the time with ambient display on.) A factory reset seemed to help though.
Just bought my this morning from amazon. Can't wait to get it..

Same problem here.
I noticed that leaving it overnight it (50% battery left) depleates the entire battery. Watch idle takes the most of it. I will try a factory reset and report back
How's the size on the wrist? Some of the reviews were mixed on how comfortable it was.

I was at Bestbuy earlier today. Fit way more comfortable then gear s2. Curves around the arm really nice. Not bulky either. But I bought my from amazon. Which was a better deal on my part..

Okay that's great, mine will show up tomorrow so I'm looking forward to getting it on. Have Moto 360 gen 1 right now, my second due to cracks.

I wrote a post about me a male purchasing the smaller version and buying a male band, it fits VERY comfortably, especially if you plan on doing any sort of activity tracking with it. EXCELLENT buy, and i tried the new 360. Moto must be making a KILLING on those foolish enough to spend 300+ on a smartwatch
Got mine in today and I like it a lot. I have bigger one and it's about the right size for my wrist.

Its worth the money.. 129.00 then buy a good wrist band. To your liking.

I've had a Motorola MOTOActv, Samsung Gear Live, LG GWR, Sony SW3, LG Urbane, Asus ZW, Asus ZW2, then a LG GWR again + an additional Sony SW3. A few impressions, all running stock kernel:
-The SW3 is by far the snappiest watch with no lag. Next is the GWR, a big reason I bought another after I sold my first one. The ZW2 has quite a bit a lag, no idea why. I'll be playing tetrocrate and the watch will lag like crazy sometimes, multiple seconds at a time. No idea why.
-Amoled screens on the rest look much nicer than the SW3 screen. Except in direct sunlight, then the SW3 screen (transflective?) is the only one you can see at all. Great for running outdoors.
-ZW2 is somewhat noticeably thicker than ZW. The low profile was a big reason I got the ZW, worth mentioning.
-GWR and SW3 get best battery life in general. Gear Live got the worst.

Thanks! This helped me to make my decision.
The AW2 does lag a little from my LG G Watch. They all have the same internals so it has to be something with a driver or something.
