I'm trying to decide between the LG G Watch or the Samsung Gear Live... I like the screen on the Gear but I've heard that its a bit laggy at times and it has a shitty charger. Opinions?

I'd give it another year. Buying the first gen of any new electronic is generally a bad idea. They figure out all the kinks and such after it's been out in mass production for a while.

The new Asus watch is probably the one I'd wait for anyway.

I'm pretty happy with my moto 360. If you like the idea of Android wear now, it'll probably get better over time.

The G watch is kinda like the nexus of wear watches, so it should get some decent support.

Dream-phone: USB type-c (3.1), 1440p, 5-inch, removable battery, 32gb RAMdrive, sd card slot, stock Android, transparent atomic purple build, 9050 mah battery, waterproof AF, nuclear powered, ac wifi is fine.
                           OR a one-of-a-kind iphone that runs Android.
