You seem very down on smart watches and don't appear to value the opinions of those of use who are enjoying ours. Why are you commenting on this thread beyond sharing your initial negative opinion here? To put in Monty Python terms, &q

Actually this week, how cold it is was (weather) even more important than the time, or day ... or texts, email, or phone calls. And with Glance (or other apps) this is on the watchface, for well, glancing at. It was quite alarming as the te

I can read and respond to texts without finding or touching my phone. This is tremendously useful in the house or while bustling through a train station in a heavy coat and gloves. And if I have my bluetooth earpiece on I can take calls the
