    Sorry if I'm in the wrong forum. Pre Ordered one of these last week and they were released on Monday. Stores don't appear to have got them into stock at all yet and they're on backorder on the official website.

    Anybody manage to pick one up?

    I am still rocking a LG Nexus 4! Or I was, until this morning.
    It dropped hard onto a bench, then onto the ground and the screen cracked. 80% of the screen still works, except, where I can select the 'tick' to accept my passcode. So I can enter my passcode, but not tell the phone to accept it. Very emotional.

    The only idea I can come up with is to use a USB OTG to connect a mouse. Has anyone any other bright ideas?

    It is not connected to WiFi and USB debugging must be turned off. Any remote app etc. will not connect (Vysor for example)

    You'll have a better chance of getting your question answered if you start a thread for your particular issue, or post in a thread that is already discussing your particular issue. Just firing your question into the first thread you come upon is not the best way to go

    I was coming from a pebble time smartwatch so have been pretty happy. Lots of the features I liked from that with the added fitness tracking. The only thing I feel its missing is music control of whats playing on your phone that the pebble had. They're constantly updating the software so that may come yet! Really annoying it supports Deezer but not Spotify. Hopefully, they change that soon.

    My brother picked one up, and it's missing a button!
    Otherwise it would have been the perfect replacement for my Pebble Time..

    It's my first smartwatch so I wouldn't really be sure about accuracy. It registers a high rate when I'm exercising and fairly low when resting. Sorry I can't tell you more!
