Replying to tweets seemed pretty easy and using the notifications screen for texting wasn't too bad either. One thing I still haven't figured out however is how to configure who shows up under your notifications. I assume it's just your favorite contacts (or the first few that fit in a circle around the face). This made it hard to communicate with someone without the phone unless you were replying to a text they had already sent you and god forbid you dismiss instead of reply because you'll never be able to contact that person again from the watch until they text you again.

I also setup an alarm on my watch and was surprised that the phone's alarms did not show up and therefore must be mutually exclusive. Later that day, when the alarm went off, both the phone and the watch were ringing and I was able to dismiss the alarm from the watch and both of them went silent. I'm still not sure how that worked since that same alarm for 2pm was set on both devices. Do they both sync up if they are at the same time or something? Still a mystery.

I did have the opportunity on the same day to accept a call from my watch. My fiancé and I were in the car running errands. He was driving but even still, my phone was in my purse. My watched notified me I had a call incoming and I accepted the call there answering 'Hello?'. It took about 1 or 2 seconds before the voice came through on the other end but it was crystal clear and I was able to communicate very well with them even with any extra car noise in the background. So, accepting phone calls: Success and I felt not only 'like a boss' but also like Dick Tracy.

Throughout the day, I thought about the watch's battery but had not yet found any outright indicator as to how the battery was doing. It wasn't until about 9pm at night that the watch notified me it had about 10% battery life left and it asked if I wanted to put it into "Power Reserve Mode" where it would still tell the time for me but no other features would be available. I was at a birthday party at the time so I opted for this mode and used it for a few more hours throughout the night just to tell the time. Again it took a little finagling to figure out that it was pressing on the digital crown that would show the time (it no longer responded to just flipping my wrist up) and the only watch face for this mode was in a digital green.
