Let's not forget the batt life. It needs to be charged. Now you need a bigger power bank to charge your phone tablet and now a smart watch.

I just spoke to one of my company's I.T. staff who's wearing a PEBBLE, just before i walk out of office earlier... We were talking about the smartwatches, and like me, he also fell on the Moto 360, also on the sleek looks. Unfortunately, both of us were also turned down by the sorry specs in battery reserve per charge. His PEBBLE can get more than 10days of energy to work with daily turn off during sleeping hours, stays connected to his Samsung phone via BT for about 14hrs per day. To me... This is very IMPRESSIVE liaoz!

Moto hv to... keep improving lah!

Oh that's pretty impressive, didn't read about it. 10 days worth is definitely more than enough.

Planning to hoot the KAIROS with SOPROD under the hood. But need to feel on the physical piece from another member of another forum to confirm. Theirs are Miyota based.
This looks promising...

Previously came across a good deal from LG.

But company folks commented that the LG battery life not as good as the PEBBLE. I drop my decision after that...
