I figured I'd get the party started and hopefully I'm not the only one in the room. I was #2 today at the 5th Ave store to pick it up, most of the people waiting in line were bloggers who just took pictures and left.
Here are a bunch of pictures I've taken to try to help get a better idea of what the watch looks like. I'm currently on the road for work but I'll be able to answer more questions and maybe do an APK pull for y'all.

I picked one up in Tokyo a couple of days ago. So far I'm not massively impressed.
It looks amazing and is really responsive but the battery is pants. I think I got 7 hours yesterday and that was with minimal use.
I'm hoping it settles down once I've had it a while.
How's everybody else's battery life?

Excellent. I've not had any issues at all and i'm travelling around a very sunny Japan at the moment.
I know reviews have been negative toward resolution but I can't see anything wrong at all. Looks nice and clear to me.

My battery life has been 12 hours maximum for the 4 days I've had it. Is turning off wifi what you think does the trick?

I found switching WiFi off helped loads. If your watch has a connection to your phone it can use the Internet from there. So it makes the WiFi redundant and just draining battery looking for a connection. I'll only switch WiFi back on if I ever forget my phone.
Also I had the brightness set to 1. Even in bright light it's never been a problem.
hey, would you please tell me what does it say under Settings->about->model?
a picture would be ideal, but don't forget to hide your serial number if you post it

Thanks. If that solves the problem, then my only gripe is the size. The watch is quite big for a slender wristed TAG enthusiast like me.

A large portion of the battery drain issue has been taken care of. I'm not at 100% usage. However, over the past hour it has shown a pretty large partial wake usage in Spare Parts.

Just tried over wifi... Worked great... Uninstalled Qik... lol... i had my brother and sister install it on their moments (did I just say moments??!?!?! I meant epics), and they were on 3g when i called them... Video quality was great. Now about to try mine on 3g. Great work. Can't wait til this is not a beta
edit: My phone isn't 100% awake anymore with this.
Even the updated version ate battery too much to be acceptable for me.
Blew through the battery in about 6 hours with pretty light use.
Hopefully it gets worked on.
I'm changing roms and will try it again soon after I finish customizing everything on my end.

Ditto. It will sleep sometimes but it will still do partial wakes even with the screen off. Its almost as if the app is trying to communicate with an outside source even when not in use. I unistalled it and phone sleeps 100%. Shame, it's a great program but it's terrible on battery life.
im not seeing any improvement at all, my 3000mah battery dropped to 70% in 25min, im going to try a fresh install of tango and see if that helps but as far as i can see, the phone says its still awake, just looked at permissions, why does it need gps? anyways just reinstalled, going to see how battery holds up
-alright its been about a half hour and the battery seems to be holding up, listening to music, running hotspot, and tango is running in background waiting for calls, before when i only updated, i didnt have music running, didnt have hotspot, phone was idle but reinstalling seems to have helped
Eh mixed views, not sure yet...
Outstanding app, however I do have to agree with the others as far as the battery is concerned. You guys have nailed the UI and video aspect though. Great job on updating the community too. Big thumbs up!

How do you get your Android OS to be so low. My note is always around 25% to 30%. Do you think I have something running that's draining my battery? I do know that I'm not getting anywhere near the battery life you guys are saying you are getting.

he could have disabled all animations, force-closed processes, etc.
I have bluetooth running eight hours a day, streaming music for four to five of those to it, at least three to four hours of reading massive PDFs (textbooks), ppts, and word documents, WIFI on whenever available, etc.
I've gotten 10-13 hours without too many issues. The 10 was with a LOT of screen time, wifi or data running always, and bluetooth running always.
It also depends how you charge your battery. I make sure to fully charge my battery, and then run it into the GROUND (eg note powers off completely) before I plug it back in. Every time. You get maximum capacity that way, there's a name for this, but I can't remember what.
Anyway, battery 101. Kill processes, disable unneccesary services, use WIFI when you have it, disable everything you don't need, disable sync if you want/need to, disable gps, animations, and especially use minimal screentime. I don't see why the note wouldn't pull at least 36 hours if it was left in airplane mode the whole time.
Actually I was just watching movies and listening through bluetooth, thats why I don't have other processes eating my battery but I didn't do anything special..just straight 6 hours of watching movies using mobo player..
But I noticed that using mobile data to surf the net would drain my battery faster, so try to use wifi whenever available..
Everything about my setup is stock, only de-odexed to manually install my language..
Also noticed that when my phone left idleing, there will be Android OS drain in my battery usage, wigh "suspend" and "events0" showing in BetterBatteryStats but I still didn't figure out how to solve that..

Notice how you have a solid blue line for screen on and awake, starting right under the "i" in "Phone Signal"? Is your screen seriously on that entire time? What is your display on time? If you're continually using the phone that entire time, then it could be right...

So you've been on XDA and Facebook on your phone for nearly 4 hours straight, not even connected to wi-fi? I'd say your battery is just fine.

I checked and seems like there is no thread for the new Tag Modular 45.
So creating this one as a placeholder, i think it might be time for the tag to get its own section on XDA, but that's not up to me
The new Tag Heuer modular 45 came out officially, and already up for sale.
I personally purchased the black ceramic with Gold Lugs, and am super excited to get it.
Since it is made in Switzerland, it takes 28 days to assemble and deliver. So while i am still waiting for mine, wondering if someone else purchased.
Some information:
The TAG Heuer Connected Modular 45 Launch in Switzerland
I just picked-up mine yesterday, Blue bezel, blue rubber strap in titanium. I was searching for a Forum section, and your post is the only one I came accross.

Cool, yeah, it would be great to get more than 24-25 hours, but really though, who in this day and age isn't going to have a battery pack or other power supply to hook up to, and can't just live with charging over night. I'm not a TAG homer by any means, there are undoubtedly some kinks with this watch, but from the looks of it, TAG seems pretty invested in the product line, and will likely keep up with the support. We'll see....

I need stock firmware or recovery files to be able to flash using adb as my modular 45 died and got stuck on fastboot .. any help?
My case came in yesterday. I figured id start a review thread for it here. Ill update this as i use it more.
First impressions:
This thing is huge. (think vhs tape thick)
Phone fits well and seems secure
Case charged fast
While huge, its not to bad to hold.
I charged my phone to 100% and put the case on today. I screenshoted the time and date so i could remember exactly. I work 12-14 hour shifts and stream music all day to a bluetooth speaker. Ill update after work what my battery is . I normally get a full day off a regular charge so im hoping for 3+ days on this.
More pics
Even more
I would have purchased this case instead of the generic 6000m one I got had I seen your thread before. The case in your pictures seems less "aggressive" than it is in the website
It is very large, but its growing on me more and more. I dont see it as a daily driver, but camping, in my get home bag ect, its perfect
Why didn't they make use of that space next to the camera ? They could've reduced the overall size of the case a little.
I honestly dont know.
Just hit 20% so im using the case to charge now. Notification menus says cable charging so its not fast charging., But still going fast.
No offense, but that looks horrible. It's blocky, square and huge.
Why not shipping to EU/UK? I want to buy it.

Because it would be visible on camera, especially with the ultra wide lens
He was referring to on the inside it didnt use the area beside the camera
Im on day 3 now. The case charge is empty. I stream music all day and. Run gps about 2 hours a day as well. While it is huge, it definitely has its place. Overall its a win for zerolemon.
How much SOT you've had so far ?
I average about 8-9 hours of sot a day. Mostly because some of my streaming is youtube at work too. This wont be my daily driver, but vacations, road trips and bad storm warnings it will definitely be nearby!
