I really like the designs put forward, and like that would connect direct to phone. I expect Apple things to be more expensive, don't like idea of charging daily though

The charging daily isn't that much of an issue for me as I take my watch every night and put it on the bedside (where it could charge) along with my charging phone.
(Bring on that proper wireless charging)
Still not convinced by it for myself. If I had a few quid spare I think I would get one but not at the moment.
I think it will sell a lot as its been very cleverly marketed, its not just a smart watch its a fashion piece. The high value watches will make them a fortune and will fly off the shelfs with the very rich who 10K is pennies to

I don't get all this smart watch bull either? We live in a generation where the phone has replaced the watch so the only reason people wear a watch is because:
a) They are backwards/traditional.
b) Its a fashion statement.
c) They simply enjoy watches.
So to basically put a phone inside the thing it replaced but you still have to have a phone seems a bit mental!
I wish Apple, Samsung & HTC etc. would just focus on making the bloody batteries on their phones last more than 24 hours

I cannot believe nobody has mentioned the pebble watch.....
I have the original and ordered the new colour one which should be here around May time.

I suspect it's because this is a thread about the Apple Watch and not the Pebble........

What about the people that can afford Apple products, have or had Apple products but simply just don't like where Apple are heading and prefer products from other manufacturers?
Still, it's great that you believe you're now some 'baller' in your polyester ASDA George suit but how about you run along, get out of this thread and stop trolling as you're coming across a bigger cunt than usual Nic
