    is it like smart tvs that give nsa access to the webcam and continually collects data from when, what and for how long you watch whatever channel?

    I'm not big on them. My phone does everything I want from a piece of tech.

    They get really hot sometimes as well, might as well spend the same amount on a branded watch.

    Sony smartwatch2, its pretty gimmicky honestly for the cost ($150) but its nice being to read texts from my wrist, switch songs and facebook updates. Alarm is convenient for sk, vibrating wrist versus a loud alarm from the phone. Does not have a camera and no built in mic to talk into. I use a pair of LG tones (bluetooth) so i can answer the call from the watch and just begin talking without touching my phone. Samsung has good smartwatches that only work with a samsung phone, LG came out with one im going to check out and Apple is rumored to be making one for next summer release.

    Battery life is great, lasts a few days a full charge. Never gets hot on me and I live in the desert.

    Also I use an LG G3 as phone.

    I'll check into the one from Sony, but the reason i like the moto 360 is because the metal version looks awesome. You have any problems with scratches? Or do you protect it with some thing?
    I have an earpiece as well, so i would use that one more again :)

    I'm sure you can get a universal screen protector and cut one to size. i don't have one on it and the thing has taken a beating when it gets knocked off the bathroom counter. Thing is pretty resilient all things considered. One scratch on the bottom right corner, no cracks yet thank god

    Are they waterproof?
    depends on which one you buy i think, most are like splash proof i think or half an hour at max 2m etc

    this is for the moto 360 from their customer support

    Is my Moto 360 water resistant and water proof?
    Moto 360 is water resistance, meaning it can sustain sweat and rain.
    Water resistant in up to 1 meter of fresh water for up to 30 minutes. Exposure of leather band to water is not recommended.
    Note: Moto 360 is IP67 rated.
