Apple edition with I think red leather band? Looks best to me. Probably the fucking priciest too.

[kharma45]

Is there gonna be any iPad stuff today or can I safely bail out?

 

[ActStriker]

Where's the innovation again?

 

[Smiles and Cries]

the look is growing on me but meh I'll have to see

 

[Vyer]

Two different sizes

 

[sangreal]

some sort of new method for changing bands?

there is just a slot on the side you slide the band into until it locks. they showed it in the video

 

[Zuhzuhzombie!!]

Too bad I don't wear watches.

And now we're at the heart of the matter.

The iPhone killed the watch.


Can it bring it back?

Nope.

I just had a custom suit made. When measuring my left arm:

"Do you wear a watch? We need to compensate the cuff if you do."

Nope.

"No one does these days."

 

[ElTorro]

Love the reactions here. You'll be walking around with one by the end of 2015, haters!

I'd bet money on that.

 

[nib95]

It does, but the round screen also cuts off a bunch of the UI/apps and the battery is awful.

Fair enough, but then even Samsung's new watch looks better imo.

If Apple move away from the bubbly look, and back to the slick, machined, straight edged chamfered look, it'd be more appealing for me personally.

 

[Incognito]

Honestly, I think I'll get one just for fitness tracking, not for day to day use. Accurate heart rate monitoring in a watch would be nice. I don't like chest straps.

Same. I have a Suunto watch + chest strap for riding and invariably I end up taking the chest strap off. Does Moto 360 have HR monitor?

 

[Byakuya769]

I'm intrigued. I do like the look of the Moto X better though. But I like the compatibility between this and my iPhone more.

 

[Live Free or Die]

amazing simply amazing!

 

[kingocfs]

iPhone required with watch...

 

[Social]

Is there gonna be any iPad stuff today or can I safely bail out?

bail

 

[T.O.P]

Awww shit


I want one


WHY

 

[Squalor]

I wonder if everyone who claims it isn't fuck-ugly was going to buy an Apple watch no matter what it looked like...

I'm not buying it. I said so pages ago.

There goes your wonder, troll.

 

[Gandie]

Iphone required? WAT?

 

[Incandenza]

iPhone required eh?

 

[TxdoHawk]

the look is growing on me but meh I'll have to see

I don't like the look, but I like everything else I see so far.

 

[CrankyJay]

lol you need an iphone to even use the watch

 

[Particle Physicist]

Wait, so it doesn't have touch at all?

They had a whole thing about how it senses pressure and not just touch.

 

[Krev]

...did he just say iPhone is required with Apple Watch?

 

[v0yce]

Where's the innovation again?

The interface.

 

[jediyoshi]

Where's the innovation again?

What does your dumb, busted current watch even do, huh mister

 

[kabel]

It is incredible to see Kevin Lynch on stage at an Apple event after all those years he spent at Adobe trying to get Flash on iOS.

Ouch.

 

[Maninthemirror]

here comes the part where the functionality craps over the competition.

 

[Exile20]

The competition seems more refined...

Now that is a Smart watch.

 

[Technosteve]

it looks like my old casio

 

[CharminUltra]

eeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the watch's design looks cool, but idk. I will for sure give the Plus a try next year when they release v2.

 

[gofreak]

Hmm. Not mad about how it looks on this presenter, vs the video before.

 

[NYR]

Hahaha, you need to carry your phone around too?

 

[ScepticMatt]

confirmed not standalone (requires iPhone)

 

[kharma45]

bail

Danke

 

[RedSwirl]

I'm gonna need that 128GB iPhone.





...Fuck.

 

[Guess Who]

Fair enough, but then even Samsung's new watch looks better imo.

Not even close.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

MESS

 

[Radec]

iPhone required ?

 

[MThanded]

iphone required with apple watch. People fainting all over the place.

 

[entremet]

Is there gonna be any iPad stuff today or can I safely bail out?

iPad is another event.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

The UI really is just terrible.

 

[CastleBravo]

iPhone is required for the Apple Watch.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

iPhone is required with apple watch what is the fucking point of having a watch?

 

[marrec]

lol you need an iphone to even use the watch

Well there goes the possibility of me ever owning it.

 

[Animator]

Awww shit


I want one


WHY

Because you are a consumer whore and you need to have the shiniest toys to feel like your life means anything.

 

[Vyer]

.

 

[Squalor]

Awww shit


I want one


WHY

 

[Orbis Tabula]

It's not that it's bad,its more than expectations are usually high for Apple and this is merely acceptable. But I don't have an iPhone anymore, so I wouldn't be able to use it anyway.

 

[helloresolven]

Fair enough, but then even Samsung's new watch looks better imo.

Thank god fashion is subjective... because that is ugly as fuck too.
