Perfect for small wrists
I have now lived with it for a week. There are a lot of reviews complaining about battery life and about a lack of features such as a heart rate monitor, GPS, and NFC. I would like to offer a contrary viewpoint. First, if you want your smartwatch to function like a phone, stop reading! Look at the LG Sport, instead, which has full smartphone functionality built-in. The problem is, it's also like wearing a grandfather clock on your wrist, which, I guess, is not a problem if you have big wrists. I am a guy cursed with small wrists, so most smartwatches just look ridiculous on me. And, I already own a smartphone, so I don't need a smartwatch to duplicate its functions. I want a watch with a huge number of customizable watch faces, a strong vibrating function so I don't miss phone calls, a message alert and previewer so I don't have to dig my smartphone out of my pocket, easy access to my favorite apps, and a smartwatch that is thin and small enough to look good on my thin wrist. The LG Style does all of that. Aso far as battery life is concerned, here is what I have found. If I leave the watch face in the "always on" mode, the battery only lasts about 13 hours. Also, if I am downloading new apps into the watch, that does drain the battery quickly. BUT -`if the watch is already setup with its apps, and I turn off the "always on" watch face mode, and then just go through a normal day of messages and phone call notifications, after a 16-hour day I still have about 35-40 percent battery remaining. That means the watch should be good for 24 hours. If you are happy with a watch that will need to be charged every night, you won't have a problem with the LG Style. Two last positives I would mention. The wireless magnetic charging (but not Qi). No fusing with stupid pins that won't line up like on the Huawei watch. And no flat tire like to Moto 360 2nd Gen, but yet the LG still has an ambient light sensorRead full review
