Which one?? - Other SmartWatches

So I just recently got the s4. I was debating on getting the note 3 but decided against it.
I'm shopping for a smart watch for this beautiful phone. I just don't know which one. I hear a lot of negative things about the gear.
Debating on the pebble. If you have a smart watch, can you give your review?
Thanks

Don't get either of those. Get an Omate TrueSmart. Trust me.

Look at the specs vs the cost and features. Maybe posting some more specific questions will allow folks to help you make the best decision for your needs.

+1 for Omate, and also Sony SW2. Those are in two different categories, but what picks my interest in SW2 is that developer behind Augmented SmartWatch Pro app has been contracted to help Sony with their software. That gives me a hope they will get something right

Sony smartwatch 2 seems the best for me.

Ive been reading up on the Qualcomm toq and it sounds pretty sexy to me. Especially the whole display using bright sunlight to make its screen brighter and more visible.

Too bad you can't really buy one since it's more of a concept.
I've gone with the Omate. I will see how I like it soon.

I'm going to do the same thing I do with all of my other phones...use it . As far as making reach its full potential, I'm waiting for a bad ass custom ROM to surface. Once the boards are riddled with new ROMs that really push this hardware, thats when my fun really begins. For now, I'm going to run stock for a couple months to give the development community some time to cook up some awesomeness.

What case are you planning on buying? My sister wants to put on a cell phone charm as well, but the only cases that have a cutout for the lanyard are Samsung cases that we've found so far.
Actually...I liked "Take over the world"
Buying more accessories for it than I need. Cables, cases, batteries, chargers, screen protectors, etc... till I figure out which ones I like best and use most often, then the rest will stay in a box as spares.

If they can get proper advertising, this phone will be a great success for htc.

The article says "Sony could sell 4.6 million units of the Xperia Z in just 40 days"
So it does not say they they DID sell that many.
We'll, I hope they did. The phone is one of the best Sony have released in a long time. Everyone that I have shown it to is blown away by it. Easily the best Android phone I have used and I've had them all from the G1 till now
Edit: The article linked in the op is terrible. I still hope Sony move some units though as this phone is phenomenal!

LMAO. The Galaxy S3 sold more than 50 million. Nice try buddy.

That info has been doing the rounds since yesterday. It's been reported by many quoting analysts. I don't think they'll be too far from the actual figure. It'll either be slightly less or slightly more.
It's still an impressive number and when you consider the fact that the phone isn't on sale in America, it's even more impressive.
Looks like the HTC didn't take much away from the Z but the S4, that's another story all together. Sales will definitely drop but if they can keep shifting 1.5 million of them every month. They'll finish the year ahead of target which is the most important thing. The Z was never going to wrestle the crown from Samsung. They are too far out in front for that but with good performance, they'll reach their target on claiming the number 3 spot from Huawei. No small feet indeed when you consider the very large Chinese market. Sony's unlikely too to penetrate the Chinese market because of the history between both peoples. They'll just have to rely on the rest of Asia and Europe. That's why they need to start looking to expand their reach in America. Europe and Asia might have been well receiving of the Z but without America, Samsung and Apple will stay out in front. HTCs problem is the reverse, they have a presence in America, particularly the US but elsewhere, they just have a niche following. With the exception of Taiwan of course.

Yes, let the fashion hindered people keep buying the s3 or s4. I cringe at the sight of one, it looks that bad. I don't understand why people are so in love with it.
To be honest, the only reason why Samsung picked up in the US is because if their kind replacement policy. Sales rep will sign your contact and claim 2-3 free devices on your behalf to make money.

[Q] HTC One (M7) or HTC One X +

Hey everybody! I want to know whether buying the developer unlocked M7 from HTC is worth the $649 asking price or is the HTC One X Plus the better option being generally $200 cheaper with its 1GB Ram and 64GB internal memory and quadcore chip? I must admit the non-removable battery has me leaning on a Sammy Note 2 but is there a way to restart these devices without removing the battery for those of us who customize our devices? In other words, from a frozen state or the need to reboot the device, is there an iron clad way to restart the phone in these conditions...and I don't mean give it a dunk or a bat or use to skip on a pond. For those of you who have in your possession a M7...is the hardware living up to the specs? Thanks!

You can reset it by holding the power button, like the Nexus 4, or any iPhone. You don't need to ever remove the battery. I never once removed my battery in my Note, Note II, or S3. People act like it is such a big deal, it really isn't.

I'd say go with the One. It is a bit more expensive, but you'll have the highest end device currently available (to prevent any flaming: this is my personal preference. The Galaxy S4 is also great, but I dislike the design of the SGS4 and really like htc Sense) and you will most certainly be good to go for another 2 years minimum. The X+ is also great, but the tegra chip and battery life disappointed me greatly on the One X. I can't say anything about the Note 2, but I've heard good things about it. What I dislike about it is the giant screen, but that's again personal preference.

Better battery life + removable

No. No, you don't. It's an opinion and has precisely zero to do with any "logic" that's actually veracious. Try again.
Your rationality behind why it's better (notably the AMOLED) is laughable. Why don't you add hyper-contrasted colors to that list since it's a widely held belief? Or the fact that most people find Samsung's UI ugly as sin? Or that the argument between 8 MP/ 4 MP is a total understatement? Or that you'd have no real way of speaking to the battery life of either device since they haven't even been in the hands of consumers yet?
These questions are, of course, rhetorical.

Just out of interest have Samsung solved the loose battery problem in the note 3, you know where the device will switch off if it gets a knock? I know that wedging it in with a slip of paper helps but why should you have to do that in a high end device?

Just to the above comments:
It may not be wrong if OP said the S4 is brighter because the One uses different display panels, and OP may have gotten one that is calibrated not as bright.
As for the sound, I have also read that the One speaker is clear, not not much louder.... again, I don't really care if it's loud or not because being clearer is much more important.
No doubt, I'm loving my One

I stopped watching when the review said the S4 has a brighter screen...that is a load of crap I have seen these phones side by side the S 4 is nowhere near the same brightness..every review has said the opposite sorry #fail you must have had it turned down by accident cause its way brighter man

He also said the S4 is louder. But the ONE is clearer. Listen man I tried. I had to stop. So Manu things are just wrong. Thanks for your effort. But for me this was not a informing video. Thanks.

Could you please check which screen you own? Because there is a screen made by Samsung (C1) which is not as bright as the average HTC One Screen (C2) or the Sharp one.
HTC ones do vary. Not sure why you are making the connection C1=Samsung and C2=Sharp however. Can you cite a reference for this?

u see auto brightness is not checked right? you think I turned auto brightness on after to shoot the remaining pics? Why would I do that? If I were a Samsung fanboy my video wouldnt end with me saying the one is the better buy and I def wouldnt be pointing out the lag & boot times or saying I prefer the htc's cam to the s4's...
its ok I believe you but you did get a bad screen then...when u get your replacement you will see until then we wait

I will post comparisons once I get it bro, I really want the one to do well, I like samsung and I am biased towards touchwiz but I am sick of samsungs complacency... the one doing better will be just the rude awakening that samsung needs... do you know there is a camera/phone hybrid coming out thats gonna be called the galaxy s4 zoom? nope not the galaxy camera zoom but the galaxy s4 zoom and with a qhd screen...grr!
my biggest issue with htc was battery life... thats improved a lot with the one and each day my love for touchwiz grows a little lesser and i like my one a little more
Clearly, the HTC One M7 is far better than S4

I never said u lied, you dont own both devices, I do, Ive checked them out and forget me, maybe am wrong, gsmarena seems to agree...just because I like touchwiz more than I like sense doesnt mean am a fanboy or am not objective... I did point out all flaws of touchwiz, call some gestures a gimmick, criticize samsung for a whole line of galaxy crap and point out the lag whatd i say about the one? the screen's not as bright... yup i seem to have a faulty device... its not as loud... and then u call me a sammy fanboy? phew!
BTW Devices I currently own - Oppo Find 5, HTC Butterfly, HTC One, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Note, Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Xperia Z and a Lumia 920
