The watch itself is average. Good size and light weight make it comfortable to wear. Arm gesture to activate screen face isn't very sensitive, so I had the watch display always on to prevent having to always shake my arm, which meant I was lucky to get 16 hours out of a charge. The crown is responsive and works accordingly for navigation...but overall I really hate Android Wear 2 navigation. The easiest/most convenient thing to do is change your watch face, which to me isn't something I feel the need to change often. The only way to quickly be able to access an app is to have it embedded in your watch face which makes it hard to have a classy looking watch with a bunch of extra info always visible. Otherwise, access to apps takes extra clicks rather then a simple side swipe for your favorites like Tizen offers.

Can't do it wrong with only 1 way to do it

Schertz, pretty hard to do it wrong... Easy would be a simple side swipe for favorites, not click, rotate, click, wait to load. Just my preference, to each their own, I'm glad the process works well for you.
