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

Stylish design, Clever interface, Two sizes
Expensive at any level, Battery life is one day, Missing many key apps
Apple Watch is good, but better suited on the wrists of early adopters and boutique shop regulars. It's convenient but there's a learning curve you have to overcome and a high price that some people won't be able to get around....
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 ...

It's a lovely thing to wear, and it's already proven itself useful in dozens of tiny but welcome ways. I suspect it will grow on me further as it settles and matures – and as I learn where its strengths are versus where I should instead use my iPhone or M
The battery has easily been good enough in my 42mm (which has a slightly bigger battery than 38mm models) to last a long day without having to step down into the ‘it only functions as a watch' Power Reserve mode, but it's still a pain to take it off night
This can be an easy decision. If you fall in the Venn diagram intersection of ‘owner of an iPhone 5 or later', ‘sufficient disposable income that at least three-hundred quid won't mean fundamental sacrifices', and ‘enthusiastic and curious about technolog...
To me, this feels like a 0.9 product, but a promising one. Apple has answered the critics who doubted a computer company could make a wearable that people wanted to wear: the hardware is objectively gorgeous and, having stopped using a watch ten years ago...
Unique communication methods make it special, Attractive design in multiple sizes, Notification taps are subtle, Setup is a breeze, Watch OS 2.0 fixes some app problems
Third-party apps crash, Software has a learning curve, One-day battery life
Right now, it's difficult to say whether the Apple Watch is going to break into the mainstream. It's also too early to say whether our initial warmth toward it is because it's new and fun. Only more time spent with it will tell if the sheen will wear off...

Abstract: Here at Macworld we are committed iPhone users, and we are very excited about the launch of the Apple Watch. But as is so often the case with Apple products, Apple is not the first to make a smartwatch. Far from it. Indeed, Android Wear devices no prolife...
Gorgeous design, Multiple variants to appeal to many people, Well designed UI
Priced a lot higher than some will be prepared to pay, Interface feels slightly sluggish
The Apple Watch isn't the first ever smartwatch, and it doesn't really do anything other smartwatches don't do. But what it does do, we hope it will do better than the competition, thanks to Apple's user interface expertise. However, our main criticism of...
