Watch bands
One of the biggest drawbacks to this watch, though, is its watch bands, which aren’t really interchangeable except with other bands that are specifically made for the ZenWatch 3.
Size
I say this watch is hefty for a reason — it definitely feels and looks substantial especially next to the comparatively dainty Huawei Watch or 38mm Apple Watch.
DISPLAY |
One of the places where the ZenWatch 3 clearly shines is its display. This 1.39-inch AMOLED display looks great with its 400 x 400 resolution, and it was definitely the right direction for ASUS to go in after two generations of ZenWatches with square displays.
Ambient light sensor
One huge win with the ZenWatch 3 is that it’s the first fully-circular Android Wear smartwatch to offer an ambient light sensor.
SOFTWARE & PERFORMANCE |
The ASUS ZenWatch 3 runs Android Wear, and the current version feels a bit outdated — which makes sense considering 2.0 was pushed back to early 2017
Performance
I haven’t seen many other reviews of this device mention this (so take it with a grain of salt), but I feel pretty lukewarm about the performance of the watch so far.
Watch faces & ZenWatch Manager
If you only use the Android Wear app to set up your ZenWatch 3, you’re only going to get a dozen or so basic watch faces that come pre-loaded.
Battery
A smartwatch isn’t any good unless it can last a full day without dying right? Well, thankfully the ZenWatch 3 does a great job in this area..
Three buttons
I think ASUS did this one right. Having three crown buttons on the right side of the device is great, and the fact that the top-right can be completely customized to open any app you want just adds to that.
CONCLUSION |
Overall, I think this watch might be the watch to buy if you find one of the variants that ASUS offers fitting for your style.
