    Very nice watch - wish it had the new Qualcomm CPU...

      Yeah I had the Hawaii Watch as well.. still best ever... unfortunately it died on me so now I'm using the Samsung Gear Fit2 Pro until a good WearOS watch is available.... I'll wait for the new CPUs that's for sure...

      @@7techno77 I prefer WearOS. It has a keyboard, better voice dictation, better integration with Android apps, Google Assistant, and a better looking UI. I had a Gear S3 Classic in addition to my WearOS watches and I loved it too.

      When should we even start seeing watches with the new CPU anyways? maybe feb? I never owned a WearOS watch, just had my old samsung watch , but I'm looking to get a Pixel 3 with a wearOS watch that has the new CPU.

    New Android user here.. I agree with all that I've read about a new snapdragon chip about to be released im confused why so many companies decided to make new watches without the new chip.. I'm excited to see what the fall season has. Hopefully someone makes a watch as beautiful as this one!

    i tried android wear 2.0 on the tickwatch a few mon ths back...hated it...constantly losing connection, late or non existant notifications of calls or messages resulting in alot of missed calls/messages and the worst battery life i ever seen...went back to my pebble time with rebbel now running it...works flawless and i get promp notification and everythign works great...and i only have to charge once every weekend IF that...

    The Wear 2100 is a great SoC in devices like the Huawei Watch 2, which easily can go two days on a charge and offer very responsive performance. That being said, the Huawei Watch 2 is more than a year old now. With the new SoC coming out soon, Wear 2100 is a deal breaker. I also have the LG Watch Style and I can't risk something with that bad of battery life lol

    Hate that these companies are pretending to have eliminated the flat tire of the Moto360, but they really just inset the active screen within the face to avoid the light sensor. Makes it look like there's a ridiculously thick bezel when the face is lit up. I'd rather just have the edge to edge experience. Since Lenovo trashed the Moto, can someone else please do this right?

      Because they pretend like the eliminated the "flat tire" of the Moto360, but really they just made the whole screen smaller to avoid the light sensor. I'd rather have the edge to edge so I'm still using my gen 2 Moto until someone gets this right.

    Is a slightly outdated processor such a big problem? I heard that new one is almost the same. I don't expect big difference in battery life. Smartphones are getting new chips but screen on time battery life is always the same highest is 5 hours average is 3-5h
