I just got this watch after using iWatch since they were released !
Design:
I must say the design and feel is classy and light on the wrist.
Watch faces are Ok’ish and I’m hopeful there will be more selections to come.
App Integration:
The integrations are ok and the only thing I have an issue is the sound & haptic alerts; the sound well… could be customized via the app.
Music - iffy; basic functions should be bale to be controlled via watch but don’t unless the music app is playing. Not sure if this is doable and yes I have to read up some more on the usage.
Battery:
The best part - not have to charge every 36hrs was a huge feature to make me switch. After 3 days I’m at 61%.
Price: Sweet spot!!!
Hopeful for more updates in the future

Well it’s day 4 and an odd situation; received a spam call and I ignored it on the phone and the watch froze !!!
Nothing tries to connect and goes loopy mode - Had to do a watch reset - but then all my activity data - disappears from the watch face - steps = 0!
There’s a disconnect somewhere - the software seems buggy or missing some critical features - data is not being persisted to the watch/phone app.

FYI - the watch is now returned as the freeze happened every time a call came to my burner # and I hit decline call. Support when into a 4 day back & forth about doing a 360 image view of the watch - I don’t know why. Evidently they could not determine/track a valid purchase via S/N - just goes to show that poor service can break a company’s sales.
So the watch is back in the safe hands of Amazon and money back in my wallet
