  • Should you buy any smartwatch at the moment? Probably not. If you want something to show off to your mates down the pub and have a spare £150 to burn then sure go for it. If you're desperate for a smartwatch then the SmartWatch 2 is a better shout than th...

  • Stylish, lightweight and comfortable, Works with any Android 4.0 smartphone, Reasonable 4-5 day battery life (advertises 3-4), Simple touchscreen interface, Good range of notification apps available, IP57 water resistant
  • Only five watch faces available, one digital, Can't replace default watch faces, No official calendar app (does show reminders), Micro-USB port is difficult to access, Occasional crashes
  • Quickly glancing at the ever-present screen was far less intrusive than taking my phone out.Sony's latest smartwatch aims to be a notification device above all else. No camera, no speaker, no microphone – it's no Galaxy Gear, nor does it want to be. That...

  • The Sony SmartWatch 2 is a good looking and stylish smartphone accessory. But altogether I strongly miss a killer feature that should make it unique and compelling over the Pebble and Samsung Galaxy Gear, Although the 4 day battery life and IP 57 water re...
