If that actually has that battery life, or even 3 weeks, its proof that its possible and we can now ask the big boys to stop putting garbage in our watches, like heart rate sensors to the people that dont care about it. 

I would really love to see a barebones high quality android watch where it just focus on core functionality. Instead of cameras, fancy stuff like sensors and stuff.

Wait, 30 days is normal battery life for a regular watch?

 

I'm sticking with my Cognac Moto 360, thank you very much.

I care about every sensor in my Moto 360. I bought it to do 3 things:

 

1) regular watch stuff (tell time, set timers, alarms, look nice)

2) sync with my phone (notifications, voice stuff, navigation, calls/texts etc)

3) track my fitness (heart rate, steps etc)

 

I didn't get the Sony Smartwatch 3 because it doesn't have a freaking heart rate sensor in a sport watch. (well, and it's downright ugly, too big, doesn't have Gorilla Glass 3 and was $250 rather than the $179 that I got my Moto 360 for)

 

Also, the Galaxy Gear is the only smartwatch to ever have a camera. Please read up on modern smartwatches before bashing.
