Ok guys, I freaking avoid iPhones for obvious reasons, but you gotta say that the Apple Watch is probable the best smart watch out there so far. I find that the Android wear OS is terribly boring and shit, but with Apple’s watch its pretty fun and intuitive. However, it’s still early on with the wearables scene, and I think Apple has made the next step is terms of usability.
Good job Apple with the watch! but the iPhone 6? meh
THHIICCCKK!
I can’t say the style did anything for me… Its pretty but… Might consider it if they bring out a Steam Punk edition… Now that will suit the look of the digital crown.
If you have an iPhone you are likely to get this, if you have an Android phone you will be likely to get Android Wear, each one respectively requires the same device for it to work, so there…all the fanboyism and arguing is done. After seeing the design of the 360, I would love to see Apple change the design game too…keep pushing companies to not give us the same thing…
This guy’s voice… oh boy
This didnt blow my mind like the original iphone (I think nothing will) but still its a very attractive device and way better than any android wear device. Apple has shown once again that it can take what already exists in the market and make it way more polished and desirable to the masses. However what bugs me the most is that you need an iphone to run this thing. I hope they make this compatible with android too because most people wont be willing to change ecosystem just for a watch.
why buy a smartwatch when you can buy a PS4 by only paying $50 more!
Wow! i guess no one else is seeing what I’m seeing but this “Apple Watch” is suffering from a severe case of aesthetic deficiency.
No keyboard on the Apple Watch. You either say replies, or send customised emojis, or send drawings to each other.
I like the way it looks, cause it’s similar to shape of my casio calculator watch! Ya, I’m the geek that still has one of those… I also think I like the functionality of this watch over the Android watch and the Moto 360, it seems more user friendly and independent (minus the lack of a camera obviously)
Did plante leave polygon?
I don’t like apple’s decissions since Steve Jobs isn’t here anymore.
Apple: “Screw using the touchscreen, we’re putting a nob on it” (obviously invented by Apple, haha). Ah and don’t you think your OS is a bit crowded for being such a tiny screen?. And why would you like to show your friends your pictures on your watch? Hmm so many questions. Sadly you can’t ask Apple on their channel because they are too afraid to read all the comments of how much the Iphone 6 resembles the Nexus 4 (2012)
Digital Crown? Its a Toggle Wheel! Apple, stop making sh#t up!
The Taptic Engine is not for input sensing. It’s a linear actuator for haptic feedback.
YOU BEAT ME! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE FIRST ONE TO GET THE IPHONE 6+!!!!!
Mark my words: in 2017 or 2018 this thing will be Round Shaped so you would feel out dated & people will be like “OMG! THIS IS INCREDIBLE! I GOT TO GET THE NEW ONE NOW!” we all know by now how apple marketing works (One feature at a time) for god’s sake we’re not that dumb!.
If this was a samsung watch, people would be ripping it apart. That dot homescreen, a crown for zooming and pressing? a square display, bulky classic ipod look, get the fuck out of here with this..
iPhone was really meh, there are easily better android options out there. The design of the watch is not the best, the os for it however blows all other wearables away. This is innovation! Too bad won’t work with proper android phones
Android people are the biggest haters. lol I love how they call us fan boys but you don’t see any iPhone users on youtube ragging on their precious android products. we could care less.
i think its fairly overpriced like every other apple stuff … but , i think all this new apple products are pretty legit , robust and nice …. if i got enough money i might buy one who knows.
This is such a joke
Not talking about batt life is a big no no. Could be a deal breaker. Including the price.
2014 looks like the starting point for transparent devices, hover boards and robots.
Android wear nuff said.
sooo, what else are they going to steal from samsung?
FUGLY
I made one of these before. Just carve out a Apple and try to wear it! “Apple Watch”
The Verge complains that the android wear watch is incompatible with the iPhone, yet the Apple watch is only compatible with iPhone
As a huge Apple fan… I have to say this is the ugliest thing ever. Usually Apple prides itself in the design department.. I just don’t see this selling well.
I wish Moto360 worked with iOS
iphone 6 didn’t have sapphire screen
Apple made a feature rich product but with a crappy design. Moto360/Samsung Gear are design rich products with a lack of features. Damn did Apple & Android switch places or what?
No one here have tried the watch in person. until then, no judgement should be made.
is it waterproof ?
349 dollars for a watch?! No thank you!
PC Master Race !
He sounds like Lucas Cruikshank
When people migrated from manual wind-up movement to battery power, it was a revolution at the time. When battery cells became more advanced enough to extrapolate it’s energy from other forms of movement, solar energy and low-level power use making batteries last longer it was regarded with a lot of esteem.
The initial problem I can see with the smartwatch is it’s TTL (time to live) before you are reaching for the battery charger. Sure you will have dedicated charge points soon enough however at what cost? Another money making scheme by the powers at be?
If Tissot or Swatch joined up to develop a new smartwatch I must show some interest.
what is so special about Apple?? Is just a watch that looks fancy, over priced, and too bulky. It’s going to die out. Go out of style and just try to be resurfaced probably to connect to the iPhone. Revolutionize… I don’t think so.
Praise Jesus!
