Agreed, I was looking forward to this smartwatch and don't really care about the raw "speed" of the CPU (as long as it can run the watch face displays well and have basic music controls I'm good, not going to ask it to do much...), but by all reports (common theme in all the reviews I've seen) the battery life is pretty horrific.
There's no way I'm ever buying a smartwatch that doesn't easily get 1 full day worth of life without a recharge. I wouldn't put up with that on a smartphone, and a smartphone is MUCH easier to randomly recharge during the day than something strapped to your wrist is.
OTOH, there's no way I'm buying a clunky dorky smartwatch either and the Moto 360 is by far the best looking of the bunch, so I guess I'm waiting until next year's batch until Moto fixes the battery problem or some other company fixes their industrial design problems.

Obviously it isn't what you'd call pretty, but looks like with the R they're making progress toward a proper watch design. Maybe next year they'll have full screens that look like the Withings one...
- deong 12y agoThat's about the same as I would get on the Gear Live if I skipped charging it for a night. On a normal day, I take it off the charger around 8:00 or 8:30, and I'm usually going to bed around 2:00 with 45-ish percent left.
