Smartwatch Survey [urgent] - Other SmartWatches

Hi, im doing a project from Engineering, and need to get some user input for the following survey:
1: do you have an Apple watch? if yes, which model?
2: how many minutes do you spend interacting with the smartwatch (any)?
3: what function of the watch do you use the most?
4: if the cost of the Apple watch was lower, would you change to or start using Apple watch?
thanks, any help is appreciated

1. No. I use a Gear and chinese smartwatches.
2. Depends on the mobile traffic. But i'm sure its around 30 minutes a day at least since i make handsfree calls as well.
3. Media control and handfree calls.
4. No. The Apple watch doesn't support Android. If it would, i'd already have one.

Sony Smart watch with Google Glasses

I'm leaning towards purchasing a Sony Smart Watch today, but I would like to ask a few questions before I pull the trigger.
Is it possible to pair both a Sony Smart watch and Google Glasses to my Nexus 5? If possible, are there any drawbacks to having both devices active at the same time, other than duplicating functions?
My thought process is that by having the Sony Watch, it would allow me to screen alerts and messages visually on my arm. If I feel as though the message warrants a immediate response I would then activate GG to respond accordingly. Keep in mind that Google Glass only provides a audible beep of a incoming message..i.e text and emails. This would help me stretch the battery life on GG by not having to activate it each and every time I hear a beep. I travel a lot in my profession by car on a daily basis and this would really help if its possible.
Thanks in advance!!
Can't speak for SW, but was fine when connected to me pebble and gear
Use the SW2 and Glass same time with Z1, there's no problem.
Thanks guys...was holding off until I got confirmation from forum members.
I'm not sure what Bluetooth profile the watch and glass uses, but yesterday I connected my Bluetooth car stereo to my phone while glass was connected and I couldn't make calls on Glass as long as it was connected to the car. Paired it with a Bluetooth headset with the same results, knowing that they both fall under the Bluetooth headset profile. Unsurprisingly I couldn't operate both.
As you see my goal was to reproduce the same scenario as if I was connected via Bluetooth to both Glass and a smart watch. I appreciate your feedback, but could you specifically elaborate if you lost any functionality.
Brendo, you stated you had a Galaxy Gear. Were you able to choose which device you wanted to make or accept calls on without manually selecting the device in your Bluetooth settings? After you made a call say on your Galaxy Gear, did it kill the call functionality in your Glass and vice versa. I'm sold on the Sony SW because it uses Bluetooth LE to connect to phone for data only. Now that I'm leaning towards purchasing a Martian Passport, I just want to make sure before I go plump down $300.
I know I have many questions, and would love to be able to go to a store to demo one to get my answers, but I don't know of a store that have live units out for demo.
Again thanks.

Thanks guys...I settled on the Sony SW 2 and it works without a hitch. Now I can finally reserve battery life on my Glass by screening my messages.

Oh, I had mine connected to car at same time also
Phone call followed which ever device initiated the call (call out or pick up)

I have had the Cosmos for a couple of months now.
I have had the Cosmos for a couple of months now and I am quite impressed with the quality of the build of this watch. I had problems at first with the watch disconnecting from the BT on my phone but after pairing the watch to my phone through the BT settings on my phone rather than the FunDo Wear and my phone asking if I wanted to make the watch a trusted BT device I have not had any pairing, connecting or syncing issues since. I have dumped the FunDo Wear app and tried a number of BT notification apps. The BT apps that have worked all where FunDo variations. I have ran the watch with out any BT notification apps at all but just by pairing to my phone with blue tooth alone. I was able to do things like stream music to the watch, make and receive phone calls and use the dialler on the watch all without any apps. The Cosmos hardware is capable of so much more than what can be done with the current FunDo variations. I can see this watch being able to do thing such as control my nest thermostat, control my Iluv led lights or even monitor my home security DVR if either android wear would support these watches or FunDo would step up their game and program a usable and stable sync app. As for the Cosmos watch itself, it is an impressive watch both in style and quality.

Thanks for your opinion
I also tried to connect the watch with old phone and it worked. but the phone had to find the watch first. anyway I agree with you when you say
that the Zeblaze Cosmo is good quality watch :good:

Standalone Chinese smartwatches phone connection

I'd like to buy a smartwatch, however all that meet my requirements (AMOLED, waterproof) are stand-alone versions, with SIM card slot. I've notice that most of these watches do not support full phone synchronization. I'd like my watch to have functionality like: phone camera trigger, answering phone calls, answering SMS or WhatsApp messages...
If some of you can advice me how can I achieve that by external software, or what kind of smartwatch should I buy to meet those requirements, it would be great.
None of them will be able to make or receive calls properly through Bluetooth if that is what you are asking.
There is a reason for this. Google owns the api that allows this kind of interaction with Android. They will never allow it to be used on these watches. To google, these watches go against everything they are working on with Android Wear. They also protest that it is a security issue.
So, long story short - if you want full Bluetooth interactive mode you will need a Wear watch.
Not one of these Bluetooth pairing watches you find on Aliexpress. They also are not allowed to use these api's and cannot make or receive calls over Bluetooth.
If you find one that really works (a lot of them claim to but don't) I'd be interested ?
You might look at the Ticwatch 2. Nice looking watch and is licensed by Google - kind of......

Have you looked at the Imacwear M7? It might be what you're looking for.

Thanks @pablo11, however I can't say that I'm happy with what I've just read So it is not possible to implement this functionality in ROM or with the App?
Samsung watches overspend my budget
I completely don't get it! A 10$ smartwatch (like DZ-09) can answer phone calls and push notification two-way, and 100$ can't?

Hack cheap Chinese smartwatch

Hello, I bought this smartwatch on Alibaba, when I go into the parameters its name is LY726(G) WATCH7 v06922. They say the software we have to install to connect to it is Fitpro. I can already access to it via bluetooth from my computer and it seems to be used as a bluetooth speaker when I do so.
For an art project I'd like to transform the smartwatch into a media player who would only play a video in loop with no other features, as I do this with raspberry pis. Is it possible to install android on it to do this? Which would be the solutions? Thank you very much and have a nice day.
of course no. it's like a trying to install windows 11 on 8-digits calculator. maximum what you can - translate audio stream and that's all. even no video.
