Bestbuy.com > Comgateway BuyForMe service > DHL > SG

How long did the whole process take from placing your order to delivery at your doorstep?

Did you encounter any delays along the way?

Ordered on the 29th Sept, got it today 14th Oct, approximately 16 days.
I have the breakdown of the delivery times on my blog (= Moto360 Smartwatch – Bite and Bytes

Don't think there were delays along the way, just had quite a long time of wait for bestbuy to ship to CGW warehouse.

Interesting that you got this step "Got notified that order has been shipped from Bestbuy", since I only got "order placed" notification.

I still haven't received that kind of notification from CGW/HSG after few days. Got a colleague tried to order through the same channel, i.e., CGW BuyForMe service, but was rejected, said due to they don't "service/order" products from certain companies. Hence, I am also wondering whether my orders went through.

Hmmm.. CGW did send me this email to notify that my order was on its way to their warehouse. Maybe you can check with their CSO.

Hm ok, thanks for the advise. I just checked and I don't see this. I only saw order status was processed. Hope my order won't get cancelled.

This morning, I turned on Ambient mode with brightness 2. Using the black Rotate watch face. Left home 645am, now at 95%. Will report more tonight.

Just reach home. Battery is now at 26% (slightly less than 13.5 hours). Ambient mode ON does consume the battery quite a bit. And I find that the screen turns on rather easily with ambient mode ON, with slight hand movements.

Maybe tomorrow try with brightness 1 and see if there's an improvement. Good way to calibrate my battery too.

i been using AUTO
this morning use level 1.
Ambient OFF

7.20am to 9.44am, drop 9%

everything need to disable/off to make it work

this moto 360 is really a half-baked product.

Ok for me, default stock settings with Classic Black Face, no facer..

Auto brightness, ambient off.. reach home 10pm still have 55% after 14hrs

Same case as me. I ordered last friday and paid extra for express delivery.. suppose to arrive yesterday at Comgateway.. i have written to customer service for an update.

that's really good battery life! Tough for me to gauge at this point of time because people around me are asking me to demonstrate the features of the watch..

Ok today will be:

Facer ON
Ambient OFF
Brightness 1
7.20am start

Bought a leather strap from ebay at $3
Looks much better to me now

Glamour photos looks nice, but I've seen other pictures, it's not really a nice looking watch, the bezel bothers me way too much.
