Asus ZenWatch 2 review

Back at IFA 2015 in Berlin, Asus announced its latest smartwatch, the ZenWatch 2. It offers more customisation and a spec boost from the first generation ZenWatch, but can it compete with the likes of the Apple Watch and Samsung Gear S2, or does it crash and burn?

Asus ZenWatch 2 review: Here's one smartwatch that puts substance firmly ahead of style

In 2016, Android Wear is one of the most versatile smartwatch platforms around, with some going so far as to call it ‘the power of Google on your wrist'. With an ever-growing arsenal of apps, this is the operating system as far as smartwatches go.

Excellent

Was very apprehensive buying this since I have an Apple iPhone 6s - but except for not being able to take calls on the watch (which I do not want anyway) - I get notified of calls but have to accept and then use the phone....its really no big deal.

Asus Zenwatch 3 Review: Stylish Midrange Smartwatch

Now in their third generation, smartwatches have become much more refined, but have yet to become a must-wear for your wrist. The Asus Zenwatch 3 is unlikely to reverse that trend.

Asus ZenWatch 3 Review

The Asus ZenWatch 3 is the best-looking Android Wear smartwatch we've seen, but it still falls short of the competition. The $229.99 Asus ZenWatch 3 is an elegant new smartwatch that runs on an old motor. You get basic fitness tracking, customizable watch faces, and interchangeable bands, but the aging Android Wear operating system simply can't compete with offerings from Apple or Pebble. Plus, you need to install up to four separate apps on your phone to access the full range of functionality available on the watch, which isn't at all convenient. So while the ZenWatch 3 is undeniably attractive, it's outsmarted by the Apple Watch Series 2 ($180.52 at Amazon) . Design Asus decided to go the round route for the watch face this time around, rather than the square look of its predecessor, the ZenWatch 2 ( at Amazon) . It measures 1.8 inches across and 0.4-inch deep, which is in line with other Android Wear devices like the Huawei Watch ( at Amazon) (1.7 inches by 0.4 inches) and the Motorola Moto 360 Sport (1.8 by 0.4 inches). The case is made of stainless steel and comes with a brown leather band. ...

This is a beautiful watch! It's very well made, and works almost as advertised. I suspect it works fully with Android phones, but there is limited support for the iPhone, which I use. It doesn't take calls, as I think it can on Android phones, or use downloadable apps.

We've seen what the technology can do, and watched plenty of big-name mobile manufacturers release wearables, but lately it's felt like the time of the big smartwatch experiment has come and gone. Is it still possible for a smartwatch to generate consumer excitement?Well, right now we're on the cusp of another new chapter in wearables, as Android Wear 2.0 gets ready to make its debut on commercially available hardware. And while that's sure to be plenty exciting on its own, before we get there we've got one more Android Wear 1.5 model from late last year to check out, as we take a look at the newest generation of the ASUS smartwatch lineup, the circular-screened ZenWatch 3.

I'm in love with my watch!

I love this thing! I work in a place that doesn't allow phones, but we can have MP3 players. Well, I also have a google play sub that I wanted to use. Well that was an issue, as I could not find a plain MP3 that would allow the use of my google play.
