    There’s plenty of watch faces with cool shit on them in the store, same as with Google

    And having had watches that do respond to “hey Google” they were super iffy and inconsistent. Buttons are easier to avoid frustration, which the Garmin has.

    As far as “smartwatch capabilities” I haven’t missed anything from my Wear watch. I certainly don’t miss charging it every day or having it die by 5pm because I actually used it

    I’m charging my Garmin this morning. Haven’t charged it since Sunday… a week ago Sunday

      Buttons on smart watches are a must. I really appreciated them on my Pebble.
