Changed your mind?

[dandrewk]

Those of us that are probably sending the Watch back are not all trolls. I'm an lover but my Watch isn't working and just makes me want to cry. Support has been uncharacteristically unhelpful. The genius bar guy just told me to wear if for a week and see if it got better and Apple Care isn't getting back to me. I've been trying to get some help with it since I got it on Friday. Since the clock is ticking on returns it will have to go back on Friday if there is no resolution.

It doesn't recognize it's on my wrist most of the time so it's always locked and I don't get notifications or anything. I finally had to just turn it off and put it away today. Just staring at the damn thing flashing the locked signal at me was killing me.

That's a terrible issue and I am sympathetic. I hope you get it resolved soon.

However, I think the intent of the poll is to log those who "changed their mind" and are returning the Watch just because they no longer want/need it.

Launch day 42mm SS CB owner and seriously considering returning.
It's too small but I already knew that from store try on and have almost got past that issue - but I think future versions will offer a larger size.
Limited apps currently which are slow to load and buggy. It's gonna be months before the bugs are ironed out and developers push out meaningful apps - but by that stage Apple Watch v2 won't be that far away.
Apple watch will be a success and its ownership will rocket and it will become a must have, useful, everyday device.... but I just don't think I wanna pay £599 to be a test pilot for v1.

I've changed my mind about what to expect from it and how to use it, not about keeping it (ie I will be keeping it).

For me, it's definitely a supplemental device to my iPhone workflow, a super powered watch, not a super powered computer.

I think Apple did however overplay its impact. Maybe one day it'll be revolutionary, but today, it's just very nice.

I think it's nice to have as well....similar to the way the original iPhone was..... It's just like iPhone I feel the watch is gonna take a couple of versions before the software, hardware, devs and general infrastructure are ready to make the impact.

I returned my sport today. I like the watch. But I think for $400, it's way too much for a non sapphire watch.

Returned my SS classic today. I think Apple Watch will eventually become a huge standard in later versions - but I am not for paying the early adopter tax.

I ordered at 12:13 a.m. within minutes of when the only site became available to me, and after waiting all this time and playing with the watches multiple times at the store and reading post. I have lost all interest in the watch.

I'm just waiting to get mine in the next week or so it seems, so I can sell it for a few hundred profit.

I changed my mind about 4 times. Ended with 38mm Milanese loop. I also have a 42 I ordered awhile ago. I'll probably keep whatever I get first. The 38 has an actual ship date tho.

Having read all about it, or having seen one in an Apple Store, or having actually bought one, have you changed your mind?

Ordered within 2 minutes of the store opening and just had my status change to preparing for shipment today. After this amount of time, the novelty has definitely worn off, in fact I was about to cancel, not out of spite but more so out of lost interest. I figure I'll give it a shot, we still have 14 days to return so there's nothing to lose.

Never saw the point in one. Looked at in store. Felt the same and thought it was awkward to navigate and make do anything. I couldn't even get it to the home screen. Read forums, started to want one. Started to not want one after a while of seeing all the same pics and same stuff being said. Went in again today and played with one and again no reason to own one. This time however I got to the home screen.

Just doesn't fit my life at this time. Has no killer feature/app/function. And doesn't look cool/futuristic enough.

Since the poll is titled, "Have you changed your mind?", where's the option for; "I was convinced I didn't want one but now I have one"?
