Hey there,
I run a YouTube review channel called Techconnect and I will be reviewing the Zenwatch 2. I’ve been waiting for a long time to buy a smartwatch and the Zenwatch 2 had just what I was looking fior. I especially like the looks and OLED screen.
I’ve ordered the watch and it should be here any day now. I want to get some additional watch bands for it to show in my review. I’m not sure what will look good so Id like to buy a few. Where can I get some alternative bands?
Hi Rivers! Thanks for reaching out! I’ll see if I can get you some of the other bands. 🙂
why is the WI501Q-2J-GB1 more expensive than the WI501Q? The stats are identical.
The stats are identical, but the other is a BestBuy exclusive with a leather band.
Any word on when we’ll see wear 1.4 for our zenwatch 2 watches.
