Is Android Wear useful yet?
Expensive
Display isn't particularly vibrant
MicroUSB port an annoyance to access
Protective grommet feels flimsy
Omission of heart rate sensor
No heart rate monitor
Thick band
Unimaginative stock faces
Its screen is pretty awful

Robust, quality build, In, built GPS, Offline music playback

Best battery life for an Android Wear watch yet, and the transflective screen is nice for quickly checking the time of day, I love that the charging port is just a plain old micro USB, which means it's really easy to charge it anywhere, The watch itself d

No heart-rate monitor, average battery life, screen looks dull
