Apple Watch Nike+

[americafirst]

I am thinking about getting rid of my current AWS3 and getting an Apple Watch Nike+. I see there are exclusive Nike watch faces and colors on the apple site but I don't see what the exclusive Nike watch faces and colors are. I found this link in a Google search can someone confirm if it is still current watchOS 3.2 brings 6 unique face colors to Apple Watch Nike+, new band-matching colors to other faces

These pictures show the Nike watch faces. One digital, one analog. Both fully customizable in terms of colors and complications, of course. (Except that you can’t delete the Nike+ complication)

They’re nice. I use the digital one in white as my default watch face.

Thanks. Are the custom colors what's on the link I posted which said "white, volt, and white/volt colors, and now watchOS 3.2 brings blue orbit, indigo, violet dust, light violet, anthracite, and light bone options. Anthracite is limited to Nike+ Analog and not available on Nike+ Digital, however, even though it color-matches the new anthracite/black Nike Sport band."

Thanks I didn't know if there was anything new

Colors: white/red, white, white/volt, volt, red, blue orbit, indigo, violet dust, light violet, light bone. Anthracite is an option on the analog but not the digital.

So, what you posted plus red and white/red.

Thanks are these colors only available on the Nike faces or all faces as well? I have a stainless steel AWS3 think I want to get a Nike+.

 

[QCassidy352]

Those colors are unique to the two Nike Watch faces. The other faces have the same colors available as on non-Nike models.

That is the watch I got for the $50 off at Best Buy a week or so ago. It was only a little more and worth it.

The nike watch doesn't really do anything more than a standard AW with the Nike app installed. The only difference is is you use Siri to start a run, the Nike watch will open NRC while a standard AW opens the stock workout app.

There's no real integration with Nike+.

And the Nike watch faces, and somewhat different bands.

I didn't know that thanks. I might just keep my current AWS3

I can go either way on the Nike faces but the bands are great. I have one that I use on my current AWS3 in warm weather and it is better than the regular sport band

The OP had already demonstrated that he knew the Nike watch has exclusive watch faces and different bands. I was replying directly to his post about "Nike+ integration", which there basically is no functional difference between the AW and the Nike AW, aside from using Siri to start a run.

Correct I knew about the exclusive Nike faces and bands. I don't use Siri on my phone so I doubt I would use it on an aw. It seems like I won't be gaining anything from my current AWS3 by getting a Nike+ edition

Not true.

Apple Watch Nike+ Series 3 models feature include a Nike Band, exclusive Nike watch faces (along with the standard Apple Watch watch faces) and closer integration with the Nike+ Run Club app. The Nike watch faces include a permanent complication / shortcut for launching the app.

As I mentioned earlier, the OP indicated that he knew about the Nike bands and watch faces. He mentioned the "Nike+ integration" which isn't really anything more than the ability to use Siri to start a run right in NRC. You can put the Nike complication onto any watch face, once you've installed NRC on the watch. So there really is nothing that a regular AW with NRC installed can't do compared to a Nike+ AW. And since you can buy Nike bands, it's even less of an exclusive.

So let's break this down. All you're getting with a Nike AW is two exclusive watch faces and Siri/NRC start.

By all means, if you like the band, there's no reason not to get the Nike watch, but the OP was thinking about swapping the AW that he already has for a Nike AW. Since he's not thrilled about the watch faces and he's already bought himself a Nike band, there's really no need for him to swap it.

On your signature it says you own the Nike+; how do you like it? I understand the differences, but would you have rather picked a standard AW or would you choose the Nike+ again?

Yeah thats what i like the most..I don't use the nike watch faces currently. I like to have more apps on my main home face.

 

[DMoggo]

I have the AW3 Nike + Watch, how do you get the analogue face pictured at the top of the thread, white digits with red hands and icons?

I can’t change to the hand colour?

I have the Nike S2. I love it. I specifically waited for it to come out instead of getting standard S2 just for the band.

In my mind, there's no advantage to getting a Nike over a standard AW unless you really want the watch faces. Just get whichever one is on sale and/or whichever band you like the best.

Personally, I've stopped using the Nike watch faces because it's not particularly well suited for displaying my calendar. However, I do like the way the Nike Digital face displays the Activity data with numbers rather than the small rings (as long as you put that complication in the bottom slot).

Incidentally, Nike has screwed up the NRC app so badly that I no longer use it. I just use a 3rd party running app. The watch itself is fantastic, but the app side of Nike is horrendous.

Maybe I'm dense, but what is this "nike integration" mean to you? I'm unsure as to what some folks are thinking a Nike watch can do that a standard AW can't, aside from the watch faces, included band, and siri-start.

That particular picture shows an LTE version of the NikeAW3. Perhaps that color combo is exclusive to the LTE model? I'm on a S2 Nike and I can't seem to select that color combo either.

I have both the S2 and S3 Nike Watches and it's only available on the S3.

Same here

Thanks I will probably just stick with my current AWS3 and the Nike band that I currently am wearing

I wouldn't want to keep the NRC app on the face so I probably wouldn't use one of the Nike faces

What is wrong with NRC? I haven't used it in years. Which app are you currently using

To me "nike integration" would be more than that

 

[ftaok]

I have both the S2 and S3 Nike Watches and it's only available on the S3.

But DMoggo indicated that he has the Nike S3, shouldn't he be able to do it? Do you have an LTE-S3 nike?
[doublepost=1529504544][/doublepost]

The NRC app gets worse and worse with every revision. The integration between the iPhone and AW (with NRC) was never that great, and seems to get flakier and flakier. Others have indicated that runs longer than 5 miles or so frequently crash. App is very slow to respond.

And to top it off, Nike decided to kill the NRC website, so you can only see your data on the iPhone.

To me "nike integration" would be more than that

Me too, that's why I'm curious as to what people are thinking the Nike AW does that the standard AW cannot. Perhaps I'm missing something.

 

[DMoggo]

I have the non LTE version that’s probably why.

Many thanks.
