There's certainly something intriguing about the Asus ZenWatch, and it's not a nod back to the skeuomorphism of circular smartwatches. Indeed, it's something else.It might be the two-tone style, with silver and bronze utilised in a design that tries to be...

Abstract: Asus is a manufacturer of quality computer components, notebooks, tablets, and more. The ZenWatch is its take on a companion device for any Android smartphone and it is pretty good.My first impression – The ZenWatch out of the black, elegant, retail box, ...
Beautifully crafted, Well built, Reasonably priced, Interchangeable straps
Pixellated screen, Lackluster fitness features, Semicomfortable, Too much bezel
If you're after a stylish smartwatch that does your basic range of Android Wear things, the ZenWatch is worth a look. Beyond that, there's little difference from the other similarly priced Android Wear watches....

Perhaps! If you're sure you want an Android Wear device, the ZenWatch is among the best. For me, it's definitely in the top three, nestled alongside the LG G Watch R (which looks more like a Casio G-Shock) and the Moto 360's big silver disc. It's easily...

Lovely design, Great price
Middling battery, Big size, Minimal software tweaks
The ZenWatch is one of the nicer looking smartwatches around, but otherwise doesn't do too much to stand out from the rest of the first-gen Android Wear pack...
Asus' Zenwatch is one of the best first-gen wearables we've rocked on our wrists, offering a premium design that's miles ahead of most smartwatches. It doesn't skimp on features either, with everything from remote camera control to heart rate monitoring t...
High-end materials, Watch band is replaceable (22 mm), Heart rate sensor works well, Cool application features, Current version of Android Wear
Movement is not always recognized correctly, IP certification could be better, Readability in direct sunlight is not great, Battery life is not very long
All things considered, the Asus ZenWatch (Wi500Q) is quite an impressive smartwatch. We really appreciate the high quality materials like stainless steel and leather, which make the smartwatch look more elegant and less like a high tech gadget. We also li...
