It's funny how in the Apple Watch review people were complaining about the price. And I looked at the comments in this unboxing, and no complaints at all about the price (same as price Apple Watch, $349.99). And yet the Apple Watch has way more functionality than Android Wear. How ironic.
Danny PhantomVision You* And no I'm not. Android Wear is one of the most limited operating systems I've ever seen. Just that makes Apple Watch have more functionality.
***** Well let's start off with refuting Android Wear. Android Wear is EXACTLY what the Google app is on the iPhone. Would you really buy a watch that not only functions the same, but looks the same as the Google app on the iPhone? I wouldn't, just like many other people. Lets talk about advantages in the Apple Watch. If you saw the keynote on March, you would understand how an Apple Watch could enhance your daily life. For example, you can open a garage door or a hotel room door with Apple Watch. Many people will find this useful. Can Android Wear do this? Well, no! Hopefully you learned not to call people iSheep, because obviously for a topic like this, Apple wins.
***** a day ha thats laughable. My g watch r lasts 3 days regularly with heavy usage and sometimes get 4. And android wear has apps to and over 10,000 of them
I know... That feeling when you receive a notification that Mike The Detroitborg has uploaded a new RUclips video... ;) Salute to Mike. Hands down, the best tech reviewer on earth, period. I hardly watch other reviewers anymore. =D
Thanks Mike. I have watched ALL of the Urbane videos and yours was the most informative. I will be getting my Urbane today and I can't wait. I am coming from the original G Watch so this is a step up for sure!
Hi, Mike! I purchased the LG G Watch R today, but since they were out of stock the one I got was a model that had been on display. I could not get it to work when I got home and since the store had closed and would not open until monday I decided to try and troubleshoot it. The problem was that the charger it came with was from the LG Watch Urbane. Thanks to this video, and your previous on the R-model, I was able to spot the mistake and figure out a way to disassemble the charger and make it fit. Glad you take your time with the products you review, it helped alot! Now I have all of sunday to try to fix the burn-in issues the same watch had, or if I'll just return it. haha!
This was just really odd to me, because when I saw the weather for Rochestor Hills, MI I totally paused for a good 10 seconds and realized "Wait, that's where I live!" It'd be awesome to meet up with you one day I love your vids *****
armando munoz Samsung watches only support Samsung phones. All the other android wear watches support all android phones running atleast Android 4.3 or higher.
Mike, Any insights to battery life? I know you just unboxed it and it should be similar to the LG G Watch R, I'm just curious if it is any better with the new update, especially with the screen always on.
Mike which i chose color black or white of galaxy note 4 I buy I like white but I have a problem that black color has led cover please tell me which color I buy
mike, i'd love to know what's your recommendation of the best android watch up to date in the market..I am about to purchase one, and i trust your judgment.
yes now u can now android wear supports ios devices new update will be realesed very soon should read up on it pretty sure techrax has done it on his iphone so u can check that out
hi mike my name is jake I am 13 years old and live in England it was my birthday yesterday and I was given some money I was wondering if I should buy an android wear watch or save up for an apple watch can you help me choose
Hey Mike! I have a question that has been bugging me, can ya help? I have an AT&T go phone, can I use that with the phones that are locked in with AT&T? Thank you, and great review as always!!!
I'm planning on buying a smart watch for the first time. I'm trying to decide which one, and I've rounded them down to the LG G Watch, or the Moto 360. Which one should I go for?
+Colby Allard (soccer_colby_802) If I were you, choose BLOCKS modular smartwatch. They are on Kickstarter now for their launching. www.kickstarter.com/projects/2106691934/blocks-the-worlds-first-modular-smartwatch
Ryan Choi well after i got a chancr to try out the urbane i came to realise that the urbane just fits awkwardly on my wrist and the display was smaller not to mention that the leather felt fake so i decided to stick with my 360 till version 2 is out.
where did you go o see draw emoji? I have na Samsung s also, i think its simpler,and you can see on the health app what you dis throughout the day...still can.t find whe the data goes on the app of the lg urbane....
Could you do a full Apple OS X Yosemite walkthrough? I'm thinking about switching to a mac and with a walkthrough i know what i'm choosing for. And it's helpfull for everyone who is thinking about switching to a mac.
looks very nice but overpriced. it costs the same as the apple watch sport but it doesn't have a built-in GPS, NFC, speaker or wireless charging. It also has a lower resolution display! I really don't understand why android manufacturers push totally unnecessary 2k displays on their phones but their watches still have shitty display :(
The apple watch doesnt have wifi with out your phone nearby, gestures, round display, better materials for the price. Speaker is useless as you wont be making calls on your watch in public unless you want to look stupid or grt it stolen. Nfc idc as i live in ireland but if i didn't ill give you that
The apple watch doesn't have wireless charging to use on any standard power mat, it uses its magsafe charger. The lg urbane has the similar msgnetic charger principle as you can see in the video. Sorry that the apple watch don't do the things you wanted!
realannoyingapple00 Actually, Apple Watch can connect to wifi which has previously been connected to by your phone. So you can still be connected to wifi without the iPhone. It is a first gen which just came out, and I'm sure gestures will be included in the future. Plus, Android Wear never had gestures when it was first released. Speaker is awesome for music and making calls when at home or when you don't wanna reach for your phone. Honestly, you can't say anything about the Apple Watch without sounding like an idiot. The only thing bad about Apple Watch is the price
One thing that strikes me is that android wear now has wifi capability. I'm not sure if the apple watch has the same capability. Actually is it possible for apple to do this with just a mere software update?
Beautiful device and great review, Mike! Mine's on order, can't wait to wear this out!
Phil Vierno Thanks Phil, look forward to hearing your thoughts!
***** Awesome! And thanks for keeping me entertained on the best of tech for years! It's been amazing so far.
Mr. Mine's, have you passed 2nd grade ?
***** Thanks!

True .. They only care how it looks .. Not about that FUNCTIONALITY .. Which is far better than android wear
What functionality does apple watch have over android? Are your crazy?

DAT feeling when you see Mike has uploaded something...
I think what he meant is that he likes when Mike uploads because they are detailed unboxings.
I know... That feeling when you receive a notification that Mike The Detroitborg has uploaded a new RUclips video... ;) Salute to Mike. Hands down, the best tech reviewer on earth, period. I hardly watch other reviewers anymore. =D
Mark Tristan R. Ocampo Thanks guys, I'm glad you look forward to the videos! I always look forward to pushing them out as often as I can! :)
***** i agree
Circle display smart watches always looks the best in my opinion. Great unboxing and review Mike.
This is the best unboxing & initial review I have seen. Really good video very professional.
Hey, I really like you channel. Was following you from so long and it's been so good.
Nice review with great HD picture quality, clean crisp shots, useful viewing comparisons with other watches.
Hey mike, Do you prefer this smart watch or the apple watch.
in school, just poking and flicking at your watch, teacher and everyone else thinks you've gone mad XDD
Thanks Mike. I have watched ALL of the Urbane videos and yours was the most informative. I will be getting my Urbane today and I can't wait. I am coming from the original G Watch so this is a step up for sure!

Hey Mike! Your reviews are so much detailed and are really pleasant to watch! Next time i want to buy a piece of tech i'll know what to watch ;)
Great review man. Having my wife get me this for our anniversary
And as per every device related comment section, toxicity levels are higher than Colorado on April 20th
HikaritheVampire This has to be one of my favorite comments.
colorado on 4/20 is heaven on earth
kiss meh vampire person
Can u list your favorite tech for 2015
I will toward the end of the year.
Yay! I was watching you on periscope and I thought "no video" but yay!
P.S. Hope finally you could set it up
raca reca LOL, yeah I just skipped that feature and pushed the video out as promised :)
Is there a metal band being released? If there is can you tell me when?
Will you be doing the s gear?!
Great video Mike, this watch looks very nice and it makes the future of Android Wear watches look even more promising!
Just bought on for 165 CAD. Arriving soon, really excited.
When do other smart watches get the android wear update?
Hey Mike, do you have plans to review the Watch Urbane LTE?
Amazing videos!! Why don't you have an intro? Something that could distinguish your videos from others.
THIS IS THE FIRST WEARABLE I ACTUALLY WANT! OMG, THAT'S BEAUTIFUL!
Did it scratch?
Trevor M. I've been careful this time, no scratches, LOL.
+Beckyls JHenry
*Bought mine on Amazon has the best price: **SaleOffAllAmz.blogspot.com** .*
Get shipping free!
+DetroitBORG. Can i use it with Samsung?
Yes
*Best Price for it on Here>* plus.google.com/+AMZSellerHotGirl/posts/h2WERJMwTjK
Is it still worth getting this watch now?
Or is it already somewhat old in contrast to the newer ones?
Are You Going To make a Lg G4 Review Video?
This was just really odd to me, because when I saw the weather for Rochestor Hills, MI I totally paused for a good 10 seconds and realized "Wait, that's where I live!" It'd be awesome to meet up with you one day I love your vids *****
Will you be reviewing the dell venue 10 7000?
Hey Mike! Cool looking watch. How does the pixel density look from a normal viewing distance? Are the pixels perceivable?
does it have built in speaker when you answer calls or do you need a bluetooth audio device for it too.
Great review! Can you kindly comment on the battery life?
Great video as always!
Without a doubt this is the best looking Android Wear smartwatch!
Will you review the HP Spectre X360?
Thanks for the awesome video
Hey, will you get the apple watch edition?
mike which watch do u wear !!
Hi Mike. Can you answer calls on the watch?
Zenfone 2 Review Please...............
Best looking android watch, great video Mike!
Hey mike witch one are you jonna go iPhone or samsung
Whats battery life look after a couple weeks of use?
Nice, I just got mine yesterday, love it so far, this was the watch I've been waiting for.
Really nice review ;)
The short videos is best, because it's much objective. Congratulations! :D
5:20 you can use the flick of the wrist
Can any android wear watch (LG, Samsung, etc) be used by any android phone? Or does it have to be the same manufacturer for both.
armando munoz Samsung watches only support Samsung phones. All the other android wear watches support all android phones running atleast Android 4.3 or higher.
Thanks!!
Excellent review! like a pro! you've got one more subscriber now.
a noob question here, any chance you can put some documents/ powerpoint presentations/ pdf on it?
Android wear should have personal voice recognition like on Moto X
Great review. You are a pleasure to listen to.
Ooh been waiting for this!
can you do a comparison of the Surface pro 3 and the new 12" macbook?
Omg, this is so beautiful..
Hey Mike, do you think should I upgrade my G Watch R with this or should I wait for Moto 360 - 2?
Can you do a comparison from Apple Watch and this
Mike,
Any insights to battery life? I know you just unboxed it and it should be similar to the LG G Watch R, I'm just curious if it is any better with the new update, especially with the screen always on.
***** I'll need more time with it, but it's largely unchanged so far. I can get through a day by the skin of my teeth.
***** thanks!
does it need a phone to have it?
Mike which i chose color black or white of galaxy note 4 I buy I like white but I have a problem that black color has led cover please tell me which color I buy
Rehman SG I think the Note 4 looks very professional in Black, I'd be happy to go with that.
mike,
i'd love to know what's your recommendation of the best android watch up to date in the market..I am about to purchase one, and i trust your judgment.
LG makes the best smart watches. Best looking watch so far. The leather band looks actually nice.
"apple watch design" Bruh stainless steel is a TRADITIONAL material for watches. Not APPLE's design.
I might have missed it but didn't talk about battery life and performance.. any sort of stuttering or lag with the watch operation??
Reminds me of the force touch on the Apple Watch when you change the watch face.
But it's only tap and hold unlike you need to press firmly on the Apple Watch.
***** , Great Job dude, as always. What about the Watch edition?
Greetings from Mexico
I know this is kind of a silly question, but do android wear work with Samsung as well.
whats the differences from this and the moto 360 ?
no flat tire!
And the moto you can get for 150...I'll stick with the moto 360
Andrew Matheson better battery, faster etc
a round watch that I can connect to my iPhone 6 ?
Arunpreet Singh NO
Arunpreet Singh yeah I guess.....
search it
yes now u can now android wear supports ios devices new update will be realesed very soon should read up on it pretty sure techrax has done it on his iphone so u can check that out
I like the look of the LG watch better than the Apple Watch but I'm an Apple guy.....
Great review. Thanks.
hi mike my name is jake I am 13 years old and live in England it was my birthday yesterday and I was given some money I was wondering if I should buy an android wear watch or save up for an apple watch can you help me choose
Save up
probably too late, but DEFINITELY android wear, if you want a watch that will actually be useful.
+Matt this or moto 360 sport??
if you have an android you can only use android wear if you have an iphone you can only use apple watch
Can't get around that square UI on a round display though. Great unboxing as always!
What about the battery life ?
Hey Mike! I have a question that has been bugging me, can ya help? I have an AT&T go phone, can I use that with the phones that are locked in with AT&T? Thank you, and great review as always!!!
Very beautiful watch, but I'll wait a little longer to see the second gen of the Moto 360 before I decide which watch to buy.
Hi, Where did u buy it? is it available in New York? Dont know where to buy it
Does it have a speaker?
I'm planning on buying a smart watch for the first time. I'm trying to decide which one, and I've rounded them down to the LG G Watch, or the Moto 360. Which one should I go for?
+Colby Allard (soccer_colby_802) If I were you, choose BLOCKS modular smartwatch. They are on Kickstarter now for their launching. www.kickstarter.com/projects/2106691934/blocks-the-worlds-first-modular-smartwatch
Dat Android Wear intro doe. :D

That Looks, TOO NICE!
Can you make and receive calls like the apple iwatch?
Can you pair this with an ipad mini?
can this be used with other company smartphone?
i certainly like how you are unbiased in almost all your videos, keep up the good work :)
Is this a better watch than the moto 360?
Laurenzo Tita are you serious?
of course, urbane is much much much better than moto 360
omg
lol
yeah, urbane is much better than moto 360
Ryan Choi
Ryan Choi well after i got a chancr to try out the urbane i came to realise that the urbane just fits awkwardly on my wrist and the display was smaller not to mention that the leather felt fake so i decided to stick with my 360 till version 2 is out.
Laurenzo Tita well

GIVE IT TO ME!!!!!
lol
..Wondering if this can work smoothly in 2022....
Works fine :D. Battery still lasting almost 2 days with low use.
where did you go o see draw emoji? I have na Samsung s also, i think its simpler,and you can see on the health app what you dis throughout the day...still can.t find whe the data goes on the app of the lg urbane....
Nice design and overall development
Does the watch ring when I set an alarm or does it make the phone ring???
Does it work with all android phones?
Does it have a speaker
Could you do a full Apple OS X Yosemite walkthrough? I'm thinking about switching to a mac and with a walkthrough i know what i'm choosing for. And it's helpfull for everyone who is thinking about switching to a mac.

This or moto 360 sport??
Thanks for the great unboxing and review, *****! :)
