pie-eater 207 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 It will surely depend on what the marketing people tell snowdude! Link to post Share on other sites
pdoull 2 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I was wondering what this all about - but saw a Samsung smartwatch on the tv this morning. One of those things would last 2 minutes with me - they look too fragile for what I do & where would you wear one. Out to dinner or social event? Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I'm too sweaty for watches Link to post Share on other sites
Peetan 10 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I agree with Rucky - love watches as I do, I absolutely need to make sure they are proper scratch resistant otherwise they won't see past the year. I can't seeing some of these smart watches having the same durability. Link to post Share on other sites
yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 The Apple Watch might be ok though. Link to post Share on other sites
stemik 14 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I wouldn't mind a sports watch with GPS, HRM. Must drop hints to the wife as Xmas is approaching Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Apple's watch would need to be better than the iPhone 6 - it bends when you carry it in your pocket, has an update that stops it from being useful as a phone - Hello!! A phone that cannot make or take calls? WTF! Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 It most surely does sound like the end of the world. Link to post Share on other sites

BagOfCrisps 24 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 What are the alternatives for Apple Watch out there now anyway? Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Here are some alternatives, which you could try: There are actually many out there that have been around for a while, Apple are several years too slow to get their apple smart watch out it would seem.

snowdude 44 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Yeah, take your pick. Not sure I would want any of them strapped to my arm though, kind of jama, I would think, and reckon I would end up just catching or bashing it against everything. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 That top Portal one is well cool Link to post Share on other sites
snowdude 44 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Yes it is, they do look cool but it is the jama factor that would put me off as much as anything. Link to post Share on other sites
Big Al 16 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 The one below the portal (above the Sony) is quite obviously a minituarised iPhone 6 bent to a comfortable position around the wrist !! :lol: Link to post Share on other sites
big-will 7 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Wonder if these things will become popular once Apple do their marketing splash. I think they mostly look a bit ridiculous and can't see the appeal. Link to post Share on other sites
iiyamadude 6 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm sure Apple marketing will be very clever but they ain't going to get me interested. Link to post Share on other sites
