The editors didn't like
Battery only lasts a little more than a day. Most models and configurations cost more than they should. Requires an iPhone to work. Interface can be confusing. Many apps load slowly. Lacks built-in GPS
Long load times on third party apps
Steep learning curve
Expensive
Expensive at any level
Battery life is one day
Missing many key apps
Expensive… very expensive
Battery could be a little better
Apps can fail too easily
Premium pricing
A day battery life
Thick watch body
Lacks swim-ready water resistance and onboard GPS found in Series 2 models. Only comes in aluminum models
Starting prices are higher than last year. Battery life still won't last past two days. Watch face options are still very limited in choice and function. Only works with iPhones

Abstract: I bought my stainless steel Apple Watch the first day that it was available. I was incredibly excited about it; a big new splashy technology platform from Apple! Fitness! Apps! A digital crown! What's not to like?Sadly, this honeymoon phase didn't last ve...
Abstract: Before discussing watchOS 2, I want to make one thing clear: I love the idea of the Apple Watch. I think smartwatches in general have an amazing future. But I haven't found one smartwatch I personally feel I need.Apple Watch does some things amazingly wel...

Abstract: The arrival of smartwatches was supposed to spell the end of dedicated fitness bands with Gartner predicting that ‘half the people who would have bought a fitness wristband will buy a smartwatch instead.' However, the lukewarm reception to the army of And...
The true test of any personal device is simply whether or not you miss it when it isn't there. In the case of the Apple Watch, after just a few days of continual use I came to expect it to be on my wrist at all times. It's also changed my behaviour. Bef...
Fantastic fitness tracker, Comfortable to wear, no irritation from strap, Oozing with potential,
Long load times on third party apps, Steep learning curve, Expensive,
After a month with the Apple Watch, it's certainly affected my life, but I wouldn't say it's changed it significantly. I'm a lot more comfortably leaving my phone sitting on my desk when I'm at home or work, rather than constantly keeping it in my pocket...

Incredible design, Surprisingly long battery life, Great user experience
It's square, not round, Expensive by comparison, Missing a few features in fitness software
No. Almost certainly not. There's only one real reason to buy the Apple Watch today: if you so badly crave a gadget that's new and different that you're willing to settle for something broken. The good news: first-generation Apple products always suck! L...
