To each their own, but I have this watch and have been using Android Wear smartwatches since the original Moto 360. I actually disable the heartrate monitor and fitness parts of the watch because I never use them.torontocanada1968 wrote: ↑ What would somebody need this for? Only thing I see is for the heart rate monitor. Educate me guys because I see everyone with fancy cell phones in their hands. Why would they need this watch or any smart watch? Thank you

Perfectly summed up here. It's amazing if you are the type of phone user that has a lot notifications whether be it text messages, whatsapp, instagram etc.darkz wrote: ↑ To each their own, but I have this watch and have been using Android Wear smartwatches since the original Moto 360.

I use this as my notification centre. If I'm out and about and my phone goes off, I can quickly check my watch to see whether or not it's something important or just another text message in a group chat that I don't need to look at right away. You say I can just pull out my fancy phone, but I find it a lot easier to glance at my watch for a split second than to take my phone out of my pocket, turn it on, check it and put it back in my pocket. Especially good in the winter if I'm bundled up. You can also take action on notifications.
It also has voice commands that I've used from time to time. You can call or text through it and it's a pretty neat companion to have while driving. If I need to make a phone call on my car's bluetooth and I don't have a car with voice commands, I can use the watch the call someone in my contacts.
At the end of the day, do I absolutely need to have this watch? No. But do I like having it? Yes.

This might have been true of the earlier versions as that thread is from 2015. Mine has no such red tint in a totally dark room.filip83 wrote: ↑Also there is a known problem with the screen on these watches:

The screen is tinted red when it's displaying a black image instead of pure black like AMOLED screens should. This is noticeable at night with a dark watchface or if you have the always on feature enabled. I didn't know about this when I bought it and I was disappointed to see it, but I ended up just disabling the always on feature and I don't notice it anymore. It's something to be aware of though.

This. I picked up my first smartwatch (Samsung Gear S2) on Boxing Day, and have been thoroughly enjoying it. A watch is a pretty popular accessory... at the $200-$250 price point, might as well make it a smart one.
