It takes ages to sync, and, adding insult to injury, every time the app is updated, it syncs the AGPS, which is a very slow operation.
The on-demand screen backlighting is unreliable (one needs to do a very exaggerated arm twist to ensure it works).
But worse of all, when the Bluetooth connection breaks, one receives no notifications, which is a very serious problem for users relying on a smartwatch to be notified when they're at physical distance from their phone.
There are other UX problems (e.g. alarms can be set only via app), but those are secondary compared to the above).
It's a shame, because even if it's not really a smartwatch, it could perfectly fit the bill of "minimal, long-running smartwatch" (as a matter of fact, it fits the requirements of the author).
