That makes no sense. There’s no buzz now because everyone knows what will be announced and what it looks like. Besides reading the tea leaves on Apple press invites generates enough buzz and media coverage prior to the event.
Got a tip for us?

Temperature would be VERY useful for open water swimming and hot springs etc.
More sensors is always a good thing
lawlz. Apple doesn't allow interns anywhere near unannounced products, nor marketing for such products. This was a mistake by a professional, plain and simple. I make mistakes in my profession every day.
Give us more screen for version 4 so you can give us round watch faces. Make that whole thing faster with version 5 and on version 6 finally a round watch, which will be the biggest selling watch yet. I have no doubt that this has been the plan all along. I will keep my 3 for a while.
Yet, last year, an Apple intern leaked the source code for the iPhone bootloader.

How pissed are they? This is two years in a row now. One through a firmware leak or something in a Beta last year and this thing...which is who knows?Meanwhile, in Cupertino.
It's funny or ironic they talk about how tough they are on leakers...all while they legitimately screw up and release more information than any leaker ever has.
Worst iPhone leaks in Apple History:
- iPhone 4 left in bar;
- iPhone X features and everything else not properly secured in a HomePod beta or whatever and
- These marketing materials.
Bravo, Tim. Keep on "doubling down" on secrecy.
That is correct. I upgraded from my series 0 to series 3 lte when I broke it (hairline crack + moisture). Didn't particularly need or want LTE, but SS was a must. Have only really taken advantage of it a handful of times, but have appreciated when I did. Most recently running a 5K race with no phone and Apple Music in my AirPods.
The HomePod firmware leak was malicious and the employee was arrested.
When a company is as big as Apple, you're going to have some disgruntled, vengeful, opportunistic, egotistical, and others who are merely incompetent.
Nope. You sleep with your watch, tracking sleep, then put it on charge for an hour in the mornings while getting ready for work.

That's the Explorer face exclusive to series 3 LTE if that's what you're asking.What Watch face is this?
I was not aware an employee "leaked" theHomePod firmware. I thought it was just let out by mistake.
Even if that one was maliciously leaked, I still find it ironic two of the biggest leaks in iPhone history were due to Apple itself.
There's no UV sensor. FFS. Do people think the watch has a thermometer and barometer to report the weather?
Speaking of memory, that complex watch face makes me wonder if we’ll be getting a bump in RAM with this one. I think my original is 512MB and at some point they bumped it to 768MB. A round gig would be good for supporting more complex apps and faces.
It’s called a design critique, but judging by your intensely insightful comment, I’m going to assume that you’ve never participated in one. I am a real life designer who went to design school, so I believe I am quite qualified to partake. Good day.
So the gather round image is the new digital crown?
[doublepost=1535686404][/doublepost]Do you reckon it's thinner?

Probably moving the complications to the inside of a round watch face to get people used to the idea prior to the launch of the round Apple Watch.
Yes it would work better in the water. I always forget that people heavily use these in the water because I have a Series 0 that is about to get replaced. Just as long as it doesn’t take up a lot of extra space. They could probably put it in one of those speaker cavities that you can flush water out of or whatever you newer series people do for fun, lol.Temperature would be VERY useful for open water swimming and hot springs etc.

It is clear that Apple's marketing is trying to visually show the larger screen for the new watches. From displaying all that information even though it looks kinda busy.
Saying that this and the iPhone XS leak is an accident is just hilarious.

As if Apple doesn't plan those "leaks"....lol

FFS can we get a digital seconds number? I'm tired of looking at hands. Yes, I'm able to read hands, but it's a stupid waste of very small screen space.
