Should I get the motactv and use a rom or get something else
THE SMARTWATCH THAT I USE MUST BE ROOTABLE
Why don't you read the Motoactv threads and go from there. Not too much activity lately.

Hello,
First off remove this post if there is a similar thread, but I could not find any info on the m28 other then the lackluster reviews on http://www.gearbest.com/sports-led-watches/pp_26924.html. Really this thing is a mystery to me. I was looking into purchasing something around the $30-$40 range as a novelty really. I have 3 data bank watches that I adore and I wanted a smart watch, but am not willing to pay $100+ for a smartwatch and I am particularly picky about design. Square > curves really. So it came down to the m28 (I'm hoping is just a m26 in a different shell or the U8 which I hear horrid (well at least bad reviews). If you have any other suggestion I'd like to here In all honesty I was going for the LG G watch but that was out of my price range by a long shot but since I hardly check my phone compared to checking my watch I wanted something to go oh I have a message, I guess I'll check my phone now kind of thing, if that made sense. I often have my phone on silent.
TLDR: M28 or U8? Which is which? Suggestions? Opinions? Yay or Nay?
Phones being using on: Lg f9, Galaxy note 3, Iphone 5
Specs of both can be found:

Thank you!
Hi Guys,
I recently got a fake U8 (no about us page etc) I really liked the watch but it was missing some features like vibration only and different clock faces.
I'm looking at getting another smartwatch and wanted to know your thoughts. Is it worth trying to find a real U8 or is the U10 or U+ 2015 better to go with?
Is there any cheap watches that have lots of faces or customization faces? apparently the U+ only has the one digital face :S
Thanks
im waiting for my u8 last time I got fake ones and it also didnt have about page.
do you have the watch with you, then please take some photos so other people also can see it!
I would spare some money and go for Tommy weloop
I don't I'm afraid. I returned it and got a refund. Looking at an s12 now similar price and don't seem to see so many fakes about.
Hi all,
Newbie here. Looking for some advice. I can't decide which watch to purchase between the following: U8, U8 Pro, U10 or the ZGPAX S8.
New to these smartwatches hence can't make mind up. Any help appreciated.:good:
Anyone?
what do you want to use it for?
standalone?
companion?
notifications?
pedometer?
etc...
i myself would never buy any of the u8/u10 watches, it's near impossible to get support for them
and with the recent discovery of clones of these crappy watches....
no experience with zgpax, so can't really advice you on any of the mentioned watches

Thanks for your reply. I would be looking to use it for standalone, companion, notifications. Are there any other watches you recommend?
Moto 360 is my suggestion.
Other smartwatchs
Why the zgpax s8? zgpax s5 can have a upgradeable battery from the 500mah it comes with to a 700mah.
The z watch by smartq works great to both run Android either 4.3 or 4.4
But the u8,u8 Pro and u10 are all about the same and they are cheap in quality and price wise, so I wouldn't buy them either.
and it all still depends on your price range as well z watch is between $75-120, while the zgpax s5, s6, and s8 range from $120 to $160 but all of them have a lot of support threads on here. I think the zgpax s5 has its own big thread with daily posts.
Well, I have the s8. don't know If you're still looking but I'm loving it. I spent $180 for mine. I'm rooted and preset the watch to 4.4.4.... So all my apps can upgrade. Now I have Google now cards with Nova launcher and use nils notifier with android L cards.

Hi,
I'm looking for a cheap smartwatch, which I can mod (custom firmware and so on...)
Is there something like this on the market?
Greetings!
It you are looking for real android devices you can take a look at the zgpax S8 or the K8 android smartwatch. Both types have threads here already with community support.
https://hackaday.io/project/4510-open-source-sportsmart-watch - pretty active and moving to a newer watch (looks like maybe the Sma Q)

All smartwatches mentioned here are 60$+. Aren't there any cheaper <30$ watches, which can be modified?

Hi I'm looking to buy my first SmartWatch and have been looking at the No.1 brand and would like a little help in deciding which watch would be best for me to buy.
I like the look of the new G3 but how does this compare to the D5 and S3, or is there something else I should be looking at ?
thanks
I am also looking at No. 1, so far D5 is the best in terms of features. Also D5 has relatively better support in XDA. If budget is not a problem, D5 should be a good choice.

D5 is different from the other models this is a standalone watch the others do'nt run android, it is depended on what do u want from the watch, the D5 does'nt have a camera and the s3 has but the s3 is not an android watch, on the s3 you can add a sd card and on the D5 you can't, but it has 4gb and the s3 not even close.
Thanks guys will have a look at the D5 now
Thanks
