The UI and design is garbage. Not a fan of smart watches anyways.

The 6 is very very disappointing. I wanted to jump ship this round but the 4.7 version is gimped and 5.5 is too big for my taste. The design is sexy as usual but specs aren't anything to applaud over. Games looks cool but i hardly play them anymore. Don't care for Pay (don't use google wallet either) and ios8 seems uh, empty? Did i miss anything? They announced practically nothing for it. Weird

I'll stick with the M8 for another year.

If you need an iPhone for the watch, then why use the watch if you have your iphone for stuff like twitter, fb, check in, photos? Seems redundant as hell.

 

[TuXx]

There's definitely something going on between him and Jeff

 

[Opus Angelorum]

The watch is getting less impressive the more I watch.

I see what you did.

 

[Fleet_of_Foot]

Does it really not have GPS? As a runner, that kills it for me immediately. I'm not running with my phone AND that ugly watch. It's so big and ugly. Damn it. Yuck.

 

[JackLongRod]

Have they announced prices for anything yet ?

 

[codhand]

What a dumb watch.

 

[MThanded]

When is this device coming and how much?

 

[ElFly]

Jobs would have never approved this.

-Jobs said that Cook should not think of what Jobs would have done

-Remember that time Jobs showed tons of charts showing how inferior Intel chips were.

 

[MBR]

So many drawn dick messages will be sent to watches.

That coupled with a high heartrate from a friend would be amazingly creepy.

 

[CambriaRising]

$399

 

[Wellscha]

FUCK THE TIGERS BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

 

[The Elite]

Apple solving problems I've never had.

 

[Zuhzuhzombie!!]

Dude any watch would look good on that guy's arm next to the scotch...

Not the iWatch.

 

[Pillville]

They are spending way too much time on this. I'm getting Wonderbook flashbacks.

 

[Alienous]

Squint at my watch on my wrist in my car to see a map?

Why?

 

[Cse]

The smartphone solved problems.

Apple Pay solves a problem.

The Apple Watch doesn't solve anything. I'm not sure why I would need this device if I'm carrying around an iPhone.

 

[flyover]

Anyone who's judging this solely by its looks (and saying shit about how "Steve Jobs would never...") is totally missing the point.

 

[Somnid]

Taking out your phone isn't really a chore. The experience sounds lousy on a tiny screen.

It's not unbearable, no, but it's a hell of a lot easier to get glanceable notifications. It's like saying "who needs a remote? Can't you just get up and change the channel?"

 

[Raistlin]

All I see from that interface is the PS Vita...damn bubbles.

yup .... shouted that out in my office lol

 

[Avixph]

Damnit Jeff

That's pretty impressive.

 

[Radec]

Yo that BMW feature is amazing.

Now I only need a BMW.

 

[Einbroch]

Jeez, the way they're talking it up I wouldn't be surprised with a $399 price.

 

[thenexus6]

$299

Only works with iPhone 6 and plus

 

[Two Words]

The eventual MGS2 remake should have Raiden send Emma Emmerich his heart beat through his Apple Watch instead of her directly listening.

 

[studyguy]

Just drop the price and be done with it.

 

[GeordieMark]

So BMW will have an app so you can find your electric car.

Can we just do a quick show of hands to see who here has managed to lose their car?

 

[oatmeal]

That coupled with a high heartrate from a friend would be amazingly creepy.

"Hey feel my blood flow"

"Wow, you're throbbing"

"yea"

 

[smuf]

I don't like the design of the watch nor the UI design. What happened to you Apple?

 

[vctor182]

This is something i'd expect out of Nintendo smh

 

[Chuckl3s]

Damnit Jeff

 

[JonCha]

What annoys me about this watch is just doing everything for you (train times, directions) and means people won't be thinking for themselves. I can perfectly find know when to get off.

 

[Live Free or Die]

FUCK THE TIGERS BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!?!

 

[ReAxion]

That coupled with a high heartrate from a friend would be amazingly creepy.

motion tracker tracks strokes per minute.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

"It's amazing what you can do from your wrist"

Hah, I'm 12 again.

 

[VeeP]

I would have really liked it if Apple made their own "Apple fit band" or something. I don't need a watch. Its interesting though. I imagine in a year or two it'll be far sleeker and better.

 

[robertsan21]

what did they say about the release date for out side US? Like sweden?

 

[Maninthemirror]

here comes the killer feature

 

[insignia16]

Does it really not have GPS? As a runner, that kills it for me immediately. I'm not running with my phone AND that ugly watch. It's so big and ugly. Damn it. Yuck.

Not to mention, they haven't said anything about it being water or splash proof which also kills it for me as I sweat a lot when I'm out running

 

[Dalek]

Squint at my watch on my wrist in my car to see a map?

Why?

did you even listen to how they addressed that? Or just trolling?

 

[Trojita]

I'm going to make an app where you have a waifu on your arm. Armfu

Why are you ignoring me.

It's not like I like you or anything!

Your arm is the only arm I want to be on.

 

[Emerson]

LOL at this from the Fortune live blog

11:23: Lynch is demonstrating how Siri works on the watch by asking Siri which movie theaters are nearby. “Forrest Gump?! Really?!” asks colleague Miguel Helft, next to me. (The 1994 flick Forrest Gump starred Tom Hanks as a kind-hearted, mentally-challenged man who led a colorful life. It was good — Hanks won the Oscar for Best Actor that year — but it was long.)

Sorry actually why are you giving us your thoughts on the movie? Nobody gives a shit.

 

[Squalor]

did you even listen to how they addressed that? Or just trolling?

He's trolling.

 

[Breakage]

All of this stuff just seems like a bunch of gimmicks that have been created to justify the introduction of a new product.

 

[ReAxion]

Not to mention, they haven't said anything about it being water or splash proof which also kills it for me as I sweat a lot when I'm out running

yes they did.

 

[CrankyJay]

show me the battery life

 

[Jarmel]

Anyone who's judging this by its looks (and saying shit about how "Steve Jobs would never...") is totally missing the point.

It's a watch. How it looks is just as important as the functionality.

 

[Aquavelvaman]

Clap for hotel doors

 

[GravityMan]

One word comes to mind regarding the Apple Watch: Overengineered.

iOS8 features were already announced, and its great. And the 4.7 is hardly gimped. But ok.
