They didn't intentionally leave it out. Gruber's post originally didn't have that clarification, and when he added it, Macrumors updated their article.
My concern, as another forum member mentioned earlier, was the cellular/data plan. If we currently have date/cellular plan for our iphones...do we need another one just for the watch? Just like ipad? There are people who buy data plan for ipad but for watch? This should have been implemented with our iphones.Yeah I just got out of the pool with mine. That's all I wanted in a upgrade from my Series 0, one that was lightweight and officially poolworthy. But I look forward to seeing what Apple brings out.
I already have a cellular enabled Samsung watch and it's a bit bulky, so I'm not super eager to jump on the LTE Apple Watch bandwagon. But it is a nice convenience to have at times, and I think for men with large wrists there won't be any serious compromises in comfort to have a bulkier LTE Watch.
I would not be shocked to see Apple bring out a Watch that can compete with the Gear S3 Classic and Frontier, with LTE and Always-on face options. It makes for a very bulky watch but my husband loves his. Even I briefly contemplated getting one until I came to my senses about how uncomfortable that would be.
Samsung wasn't interested in expending the money and effort into miniaturizing the technology to produce a Gear S3 in a smaller size for women. They brushed the whole matter aside by saying women were more interested in fitness trackers than smart watches anyway.Hmph.
If Apple does come up with an LTE enabled Apple Watch, I want to see how they addressed the bulkiness that would keep a lot of women locked out. Apple has never been cavalier about female customers, not so far as I can remember.
And better/new battery.
It looked that way since Gruber is normally pretty good about showing that he's edited his posts.
I forget how the plan works on my LTE Samsung. We got it as a special free offer with the purchase of two Note 7's on BOGO with AT&T. The bill piggy backs on the plan for the phones. I think at the time it was around $5 a month added to the bill for our phone lines, but that might have been an introductory rate for the first year. My husband handles the account so I'll have to ask him all the details. I think he switched the data plan from his free Samsung cellular watch to his new Frontier watch and complained it was a bit pricey.
I'm mostly there (no AirPods). I like it for running. About it. No longer wear daily.
That's cool. I was always under the belief that the watch was I've, and the bands and attachment system was newson
Do you honestly think Ive designed this all by himself? Heck he doesn’t even own the watch project, Jeff Williams does.listening to jonny ive is like listening to someone masturbate to himself.
I'm sorry. the Watch is a good device, But from a design perspective, it really looks like he phoned it in... I mean, he took the iPhone 1 and just shrunk it.
now i'm not saying that's a bad design. I don' tlike it. But it's subjective and to each their own.
But I honestly have a hard time believing Mr Ive's superflous language about how much effort he put into this design
we've all seen this image:
I think it's not so much a question of whether the Apple Watch will get 4G connectivity but when. It's clearly following the iPod playbook, and I believe Apple will eventually position the Apple Watch as the next standalone platform independent of the iPhone.
