··TAG Heuer Forums ModeratorGood news overall. The upgradable confirmation is great; now for how many years or iterations, we'll just have to wait and see.

- Your notifications from the iPhone are mirrored on Android Wear.
- You get Google Now cards on the watch.
- There are a bunch of different watch faces — including select third-party watch faces — that you can install and use.
- There are a few native apps on the watch you can tap into, like Weather or a clever Translate app.
- Voice search works, including various reminders that you might want to send to Google Now.
- You can do fitness tracking on the watch with Google Fit.
- You can get rich notifications from a small set of Google apps, such as Calendar and Gmail.

·I'm also an apple user, but i'd never consider a smart watch instead of a true swiss watch. No matter how cutting edge, i hate the idea of having to charge a watch every 24 or 48 hours. Everything your watch does, your phone already does. Also, when you invest on a good watch it will last you a lifetime, something you can pass on to someone, a smart watch will last you until next year when a new model comes out and renders the one you already have obsolete.
Just my 2 cents.

··TAG Heuer Forums ModeratorSmart/Connected-watch reservations aside, the big news is that Android Ware now works with iPhones, whereas in the past it was only Android based devices.
iOS was the key group that I am sure LVMH was pressuring Google to get covered & gain compatibility. Now this opens the floodgates, for TH and other luxury brands who are interested in building their own smart watch using a proven solution like Google's Android-Ware foundation.

Just to put it in perspective, on this forum's visitor stats iOS devices outnumber Android 3 to 1, even though Android devices are significantly more common globally.
