$129 ?! I must to say it's an impressive opponent for Moto 360 !

This is the best looking smart watch I've seen. The price is amazing as well

Do not under any circumstances buy anything from Omate. They launched a Kickstarter campaign promised a True smart watch gave impressive specs then once they had the backers money they dumped an inferior defective watch on us. Mine lasted 3 weeks before it became a paperweight. Omate has ignored the complaints from numerous backers including me. No refund, no replacement, no repairs. They didn't even tell us about the downgrades for the watch, we found out by ourselves. Take a look on Kickstarter comments for Omate or look it up on Wikipedia. They are also an internet only company so pressing charges is next to impossible without an address - I have spent several hours trying.

This seems too good to be true...

Unlike the TrueSmart this new watch does not run Android. It is Nucleus RTOS (real-time operating system), which has a much smaller footprint and processor demand.

I made the below post on Omate's facebook page. Omate deleted my post and banned me from their facebook page. So being a Omate fanboi is OK, however if you criticize Omate in public on their forum, they ban you. Here's the post I made:

Omate: I have a saying, fool me once, I won't give you another chance to fool me.

Sorry, but with everything I've seen others go through, I considered myself extremely lucky, but I won't give you another chance. People buying the watch and getting a dead unit or dead battery and told "Sorry, we don't have replacements

yet" or "Go find a battery on ebay". I lost the rubber gasket for the sim door, and you said you don't have them. I can't do business with a company that doesn't even have simple replacement parts available. And then, to add insult to injury,

after delaying and delaying and delaying, you start to ship, and then announce a much lighter version is available, but too bad, you don't get one. And then the Omate app which - I don't know if I'd describe "working" as something you can

call it, because it didn't work. Seeing the Omate CPU operating well below the stated specs, etc. I ended up selling my Omate. Sorry, but you aren't going to get me as a repeat customer based on how you treated me as a pre-order customer.

Don't buy anything from Omate. I paid this company approx $200 for their first smart watch on kickstarter last Oct. Guess what I still don't have a watch! Their company does not write back to its customers (ie you have 0 customer service). Several kickstarter customers are in the same boat as me. No refunds have been offered. No product has been sent. I would never give my money to this company ever again based on this experience. Customers be warned! Look elsewhere. Moto 360 looks great or consider an Iwatch. At least you know that apple and motorola will actually deliver you a product and that you will at least have some level of customer support. BE WARNED. OMATE = THIEVES! Pass this information on to all people considering Omate.
