Support NeoGAF

[vicissitudes]

Ugly.

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.

Classic GAF.

 

[Smidget]

At this point I just want iOS 8 on my 5S.

Whun Papple?!!?

Sept 17th, already announced.

 

[DopeyFish]

Apple doesn't understand smartwatches

 

[Zuhzuhzombie!!]

The bezel is monstrous

They won't get rid of it in the fucking phone either.

 

[Raistlin]

So ... can the screen flip?


Since most of the controls are using the crown, this would be unusable for left-handers

 

[Social]

Wait why is Apple saying fuck pinch to zoom it covers the screen but every gesture and swipe he does temporarily covers the screen.

true, I moticed that too, we are SO used to pinching, zooming, panning etc... so that will be hard to change although it's just ment for zooming or scrolling

 

[studyguy]

And yes, you can get turn-by-turn directions on the watch, with different vibrations depending on whether you should turn left or right

Wait is there no sound on it?
For some reason I thought it would at least make noise for something like this.

 

[The Elite]

Hello Whole Foods. I love you! Have I told you how much I love you today?

 

[Hasney]

Apples sponsored by Whole Foods now, right?

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Jobs would have never approved this.

It's like every year people say this now.

Who cares.

 

[Alienous]

What the fuck is this shit?

What happened to the sense of style?

 

[Backfoggen]

Lol looking at photos on your watch.

 

[Gandie]

i've had someone try to sell me a watch before. didn't fall for it.

Jeff Gertmann?

 

[popeutlal]

Finally...a watch that isn't round.

 

[blackaroni]

That watch is kinda ugly. I wish they spent more time on iOS on the new iPhones than this stuff. I honestly don't understand the appeal of the smart watches when I have a phone.

 

[Radec]

Moto 360 for me..

I raise you with this

 

[wmlk]

The Pebble does what I need a watch to do. Who cares about Pinterest on a darn watch? That's ridiculous.

 

[Marty Chinn]

The way they're using haptic feedback is kinda cool in this.

 

[Guess Who]

Stock is going up, Cook's laughing all the way to the bank tonight.

 

[entremet]

Jobs would have never approved this.

Jobs knew about this. They've been working on this for a bit.

 

[deltatheta]

What if he said it only would cost $50? Since the iPhone is required, isn't all the main hardware from the phone?

I want to live in your world.

 

[Toki767]

I can't unnotice how he hesitates for a second before tapping icons when there is more than one potential icon to tap.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Jeff Gertmann?

Not sure if serious....

 

[Two Words]

What is the point of all this if I have to have my phone with me?

 

[The Elite]

Digital touch communication.

SOUNDS KINKY!

 

[Sky Chief]

everything about this is ugly

any other company would get laughed at

So bad!

 

[Jb]

Can you just plug earplugs on the watch to listen to music?

 

[intheinbetween]

I find very uncomfortable relying that much on a watch, I would only use it for a few tasks, and maybe only sports related, but for the shopping list? no, thank you

 

[nckillthegrimace]

So outside of biometrics, what is the point in an iWatch type device?

Conspicuous consumption.

 

[Hasney]

Apple reinvents morse code.

 

[jett]

This is absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Gandie]

How about calling eachother????

 

[Mistah]

so what happened if your iphone has a empty battery ? :/

 

[Chuckl3s]

Is Apple sponsored by Whole Foods? This is the second or third time in this presentation they used them as an example.

 

[BarrenMind]

i don't get this

 

[thecouncil]

i've had someone try to sell me a watch before. didn't fall for it.

"i'm gonna have to say... 'goodnight'."

 

[sqwarlock]

I feel so out of touch watching this shit. Talked to co-workers about it, and felt like the only one not buying into the idea of smartwatches. I can see the point (sort of) but they're so not for me.

 

[Somnid]

What is the point of all this if I have to have my phone with me?

The active ideas? I'm not sure. The passive ones are very useful though.

 

[123rl]

Did I miss the UK price on the iPhone 6?

 

[acksman]

Just tap that. I would tap that..... oh the jokes.

 

[Zuhzuhzombie!!]

Classic GAF.

Why?

I think it's ugly as hell too but would be tempted to get one for working out.

 

[Technosteve]

i'm 30 and why is this a feature for adults? Drawing stuff and sending tapping?

 

[Trojita]

Moto 360 for me..

Wow that guys arm/hand are veiny as hell.

 

[kingocfs]

Jobs would have never approved this.

Jobs would never approve of having two devices that are meant to work with each other that offer two completely different types of ways to interact with them.

Verge brought it up but not having this force touch on the phone is a problem IMO.

 

[Live Free or Die]

I'd itap that.

 

[Brinbe]

Wtf

 

[Animator]

Someone needs a nap.

It was a joke in case it wasnt clear.

 

[WaffleTaco]

How about calling eachother????

What if you are busy?

 

[Frustrated_me]

It gets its own physical button, right under the crown. Crazy that a little communication app gets its own button.

You get a small friends list, and pick a friend, and then you can talk to each other with little drawings.

There is something deeply weird about what just happened on stage.

Some variation of snapchat?

 

[braves01]

Have they said a price point yet?
