The editors didn't like
It's almost never more convenient to use this watch than it is to simply pull out your smartphone
Except in the few instances mentioned above. The UI is unwieldy and unresponsive
And while we like that we can see it in bright daylight
The screen's low
Slow
Comparatively poor display
Glitchy and frustrating to set up
Heavy to wear
Limited watchface options
Inscrutable
Confusing notifications for some apps
Blurry display
Useful only for very specific use cases
Occasional lag
Doesn't support thirdparty watch faces
Weak music controls
No speaker mic or camera
The Sony SmartWatch 2 is tricky to set up on non-Sony phones. The watch has a small clock face selection
Short battery life
And a quirky music player app. There's no iOS support
Bulkier than the first model. Buggy software. Many apps lack utility. Doesn't make or receive calls. No camera. Only works with Android

Mediocre official apps, Lack of good third party apps, Doesn't push notifications by default, Android only
Coming from a Pebble Smartwatch user, I can't really recommend the Sony SmartWatch 2 to anyone till there are better third party apps available on Google Play. Sony would also need to fix some of their official apps first (like Email). Despite being a hug...
