Been noticing a ton of whiney posts about the sense 2 and wanted to provide a mostly positive initial review.
Hardware:
The sense 2 looks sleek compared to the original sense. I don't notice any weight difference. The button is a huge improvement over the sense 1. I went with the fabric band as I'm allergic to fitbits silicon bands.
UI experience:
I noticed some initial slowness scrolling through the tiles which went away after it cached. I would say it's on par with the garmin stuff, and behind samsung/apple in UI lag. Notifications look great and I can accept my VPN requests etc on android. There are tons of watch faces available.
Setup:
Setup was okay. My battery showed 0% when I turned it on so left it for 10 minutes and it was at 60% which was a little strange. Did a pretty big update out of the box.
Misc.
Battery seems great, with only 5% drain overnight with sp02.
Let me know of you have any questions and I'll try to answer. I plan to see how the pixel watch is before deciding on keeping but so far I'm enjoying this. My wife is already sold on it and threw away her box.
