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
The overall look and feel of the Apple Watch, as with most products from Cupertino, was a major plus for me. The last thing you want is a watch that you have to apologize for visually just so you can find out when Ebay is asking you to bid from your wrist
The Apple Watch feels exactly like you'd expect it to: a first attempt. Apple's fused its own design ethos with the limited technology around at the moment to make a compelling smartwatch – but it's still a smartwatch, a device that doesn't really have an
For iPhone users desperate for a smartwatch, the Apple Watch is perfect for you. It relays some iOS apps and all notifications to my wrist without requiring me to constantly pull out and unlock my phone, and that's a nicely convenient thing to have.This c...

Faster than original, More affordable than Series 2,
Lacks GPS and waterproofing, No stainless steel option
The Apple Watch Series 1 is what the first should have been. It's smooth to use and Watch OS3 makes the experience even better. The Series 2 offers more for fitness, but if you're not concerned with that then Series 1 is a cheaper – but still great – smar...
Gorgeous design, Comfortable to wear, Multiple variants to appeal to many people, Speed improved by watchOS 3
Interface can be counterintuitive at first, Lack of GPS
The Apple Watch isn't the first ever smartwatch, and it doesn't really do anything rival products don't do. But what it does do, it does as well as any smartwatch out there, thanks to Apple's user interface expertise. It's a slick device to use, although...

The new Apple Watch Series 2 offers fantastic build quality and is fully waterproof, but if you've got an Android phone, not planning on a swim with a smartwatch and want to save yourself some pennies, the Sony SmartWatch 3 and Moto 360 Sport are fantasti...
Anno 2016 a smartwatch cannot be labeled unmissable and essential. It's definitely a nice gadget to have, but you'll get through the day just fine without one, without ever feeling that you miss something. Manufacturers have realized that marketing a sm...
We can't help but think that Apple has tried to do too much with this first generation Apple Watch. There are so many ways of interacting with it and so many different features and elements to get used to that the learning curve is surprisingly steep. It...
