So much about the WATCH out there that it no longer is a novelty.
I have NO choice but to skip the WATCH and all future WATCHes.

Apple, come up with something new already!
The waiting begins… :(
 
Not sure what that is proving.

The earlier tests, with trying to scratch it, boil it, Dropping it, and finally getting damaged by being hit by a cast iron pan. Are things that I see are normal ware and tare. What I would want to see for a test is how well it holds up going thru the washer and dryer.

But the sledge hammer, gunshots, and explosions are really putting out of normal use scenarios. I can see taking your watch off on the counter next to you while you are cooking, then accidentally dropping a pan on it. But not a direct hit with a sledge hammer.
 
You know what's worst? People like you. Haters.

1) You probably are one of those people that throws food away in front of hungry people.

2) You are probably the person that orders 12 big macs, eats 2, and throws the rest away outside in front of a homeless person.

3) You are hater which defines you as a person and as your character.

Maybe keep your personal attacks to yourself and not post anything?

I'll tell you what's worse.

Shops and individuals throwing food in the bins, when there are hungry people probably in the same area.

Hungry people, when others are throwing it away, is vastly worse than messing around with a unimportant gadget/toy.
 
Now this is getting ridiculous.

I'll probably still watch them (like a train wreck) and contribute to the view count, but just when I think we're done ... we're not.
 
arrrrggggg!

Anyone else getting tired of people destroying Apple Watches while sitting here WAITING for my watch to ship?!?!?!
 
Has anyone else noticed the amount of real rumors has significantly decreased over the last 6 months? I wonder if Apple is doing a much better job of keeping things hidden?
 
another dumb, and pointless set of videos with only intention being to become viral.

wish mr would stop posting useless nonsense. they're becoming more like 9to5spam by the day.
 
I've been patiently waiting for mine to arrive and it came in yesterday. Maybe I should run it over with a car a record it. <sarcasm>Sure beats having a working model.</sarcasm>
 
This is so dumb. Why giving this "testers" the views / attention ( read: ad revenue ) they seek so desperately?

I dunno, I don't care much for them but I do like knowing how sturdy a device is. It's a shame they always destroy expensive items, I think it'd be better if there was some kind of b-stock purchasing option for things like this, ie Apple send them a watch with a broken display.
 
What I would want to see for a test is how well it holds up going thru the washer and dryer.

Yes, this actually would be a useful test!

My Jawbone Up24 went missing a few days ago. It came back in a bag of laundry from our neighborhood wash-n-fold service. WHOOOOPS! Fortunately it seems perfectly fine.

I never understand why people go to this extreme. Do they really have nothing better to do with their time and money? Nothing more than to get likes on You Tube...
 
So I can't wear it if I've cut my arms off, dipped it in liquid nitrogen, dropped it in a volcano, shot it with a sniper rifle, pushed it through an industrial mincer.............

Apple have really dropped the ball with this one, I suggest a total product recall until these problems are sorted.....................
 
First thing I noticed was that the douchebag in the video was handling liquid nitrogen with shorts on, legs exposed, no gloves on his hands. it would have served this genius right to have splashed some of that on his unprotected skin. Now THAT would have been funny.
 
Members of this forum whine and complain way too much. You don't have to read the articles or watch the videos if you're not interested it the topic.
 
What a waste!!!! Waaaah! :eek:
Give me one of them if you can afford to destroy them.
But seriously, like who's going to drop their watch into liquid nitrogen?

I'm happy to do the "send me a free watch and I'll wear it and take good care of it" test! :p :D
