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

Excellent build quality, Powerful, feature-packed software, Better than all-day battery life, Sharp, vibrant display, Sizes available for most wrists
Expensive device, expensive accessories, Interface needs honing, Tinny, quiet speakerphone, Only average sunlight readability, Conclusion, How you feel about the Apple Watch will depend entirely upon how you feel about wearables as a whole. Every time
How you feel about the Apple Watch will depend entirely upon how you feel about wearables as a whole. Every time we review a smartwatch there's the inevitable contingent of commenters who wonder what the point of such a device is; if you're one of tho...
Abstract: Sometimes there are shortcuts. The iPad was launched as a giant iPhone without a phone, meaning that it was similar to the fourth generation iPhone from day one. But the iPad didn't truly become the iPad until the apps evolved to make better use of the la...

Excellent design and build quality, makes checking iPhone alerts more convenient, amazingly accurate heart rate monitor
May not replace your current fitness tracker, thirdparty app and Glance performance is slow, managing settings on iPhone can get tedious
Abstract: Apple Watch charging stands are sure to be a popular item as the device needs charging nightly. Not everyone, however, needs a dock that costs more than the charging cable that's sold separately, and accessory maker Spigen has an affordable alternative fo...
Abstract: Wearables have slowly been finding their feet over the last couple of years, and were given a much needed boost with the arrival of Android Wear. That said, whether we love it or hate it, what has further pushed this technology into the mainstream is the ...
Highly personalizable design, Phenomenal vibrancy with the screen, Smooth operation with the Digital crown, Good depth with the software experience from the start
A lot more expensive than most other smartwatches, Tough to use for phone calls
Almost hard to believe, the modern day smartwatch category has been around for quite some time – fostered by companies such as Pebble and Samsung with the Galaxy Gear a few years back, only to be expanded even further by the handful of Android Wear smartw...

I love the way the hardware looks and feels. Superb, through and through, Advertisement, Advertisement, Pretty cool how the Watch protects your data—it uses the heartrate sensor to detect when it's on your wrist, staying unlocked, and locks itself as soon
I can't believe Apple shipped this product with such a confusing interface. Sure hope it isn't hard to fix, Why the heck doesn't the home button take you straight home, like it does in iOS?, Advertisement, Advertisement, Why does the screen shut off when
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! Loo...
The Series 2 Apple Watch isn't the revolutionary upgrade some folks were hoping for, and that's okay. Much as I would have loved a watch with cellular connectivity, I was much more in need of a watch with impressive battery life and speed improvements. An...

A watch is a timepiece, something you buy occasionally — maybe only once every 10 or so years, so you want it to be good. For my money, the Apple Watch is not a timepiece, it's a wearable gadget — another device, like an iPad or a pair of bluetooth speake...
