APPLE

Anyone have it?  Thoughts?  I have all Apple devices....Iphone, Ipad, Ipod, Macbook, Itunes, Airport Extreme, Stock, Apple TV....but not an Apple watch.  I dont know if it is useful or a waste, so if someone could chime in with your experiences/thoughts with it I would appreciate it!

Re: APPLE

I have the stainless steel Apple watch with the Milanese loop. People compliment me on the style all the time.

 

I tell people to treat it as an extension of your phone, not as a separate do-all device. I left it at home yesterday and actually felt a bit naked without it. I love seeing my notifications on the watch, and it's drastically improved the battery life on my phone. 

 

I've been an Apple fan for 20+ years, and collect vintage Apple products. My opinions may be biased Smiley Wink

Re: APPLE

I went with the space grey sport model Smiley Happy Is there a NEED for it, probably not.. I do like it and also have seen a major increase in battery life on my phone. The new update is supposed to make it a lot better for apps.

Not much of a watch guy.  I'd wear a Rolex if i could easily afford it though.

Re: APPLE

The wTch is fabulous. Of course it's much more than telling time. The fitness apps outstanding. Not guessing on calorie burns Apple pay a plus. But not many retailers using yet. Overall I give it a 9
