First Apple Watch Nike+ Unboxing Photos and Videos Appear Online

I wonder if it could go up to 5 hours with the GPS on. (4:30ish marathoner here)

Did you read the link I cited in post #19?

4:30 may be marginal with OHRM and bluetooth music based on the guy's experiencing running a marathon with it and no phone.

I'm still wondering how battery life differs if you used the phone's gps. (I know it'd likely be longer, just not how much) More out of curiosity; I don't have any intentions at this time of a third marathon.

I would love to have that band, but no, I bought the more expensive stainless steel version so it's not possible without buying a whole other watch.

This pretty much sums up Apple today.

I also own the stainless version. The perforated strap would be nice for A causal day or when outside in warmer weather. The issue I have with the flueroastamer bands is they don't allow your wrist to breathe. I still Change bands daily, but prefer my link bracelets. They look sharp and pair well with the stainless.

I guess I would try to fully reset the watch and see if that works?

Not sure I'd do the "restore" part, as that could put you back in Chinese mode.

Thanks for all the replies / suggestions guys!
I posted about it on twitter and after a while Nikesupport reached out. Even though they sugested exactly what I had been trying already, it made me think about language in the Apple Watch app on the iPhone. Even though Norwegian was ticked of, I pressed it again, and confirmed. After that the watch said "Setting language" and from then on my Nike+ App was displaying normal English.

I got mine yesterday. Everything looks great, but the Nike+ RunClub-app on the watch is in Chinese. And I can't figure out how to change it. My iPhone language is NOT set to Chinese..

That's Japanese, not Chinese.

I would love to see the Apple Watch with battery life and apps comparable to the Garmin FR235.

If the Apple Watch had great battery life and a fantastic Strava app it would be a real consideration for me as an avid Marathon and 1/2 Marathon runner.

Time will tell.....

That's simplified Chinese -- writing style used in mainland China. Japanese actually looks the same as traditional Chinese (used in Taiwan) in this instance. They both use 開始 for "start."

Not sure if you got it figured out yet, but you could try using the Google Translate app. For Chinese there's an option to use the camera and it will show you in AR/augmented reality.

Pretty sure Google added that using IP acquired from World Lens, which I learned about here on Macrumors. I don't travel but if I did, I'm sure it would be really handy to have.

Looks like Simplified Chinese to me!

Did you figure out a fix?
Tried a few different languages on my phone. The app on the watch stays Chinese. :-(

Nike and Apple? Don't wear one when in China:

(And remember, it's "American" to them, "multi-national" to the rest of the world.)

As the Apple Watch Nike+ begins making its way to pre-order customers today, a few users have taken to Reddit and Twitter to share some unboxing pictures and videos of the new device.

Continuing in the vein of the Apple Watch Sport aluminum models, the Nike+ comes in a long, rectangular package, but inside of a black box instead of a white one. Underneath the cover of the box, the typical "Designed by Apple in California" phrase has been replaced with "Designed for athletes by Apple and Nike."

The rest of the packaging appears largely similar to the traditional style of Apple Watch. The Apple Watch Nike+ itself includes a few exclusive watch faces for users of the device to take advantage of in order to enhance their daily running habits, and the watch works in tandem with the newly-updated Nike+ Run Club iOS app. With the updated app, Apple Watch Nike+ wearers can use Series 2's onboard GPS to keep track of their runs within Run Club, and even stream Apple Music in the app.

Some pre-order customers are also starting to share the Nike+ Watch on their wrists, and one user on Reddit explained a few of the customization options available for the exclusive watch faces. For the face in the image below, Redditor kisstherobot said that the color can be changed to white (image quality appears to have slightly altered what is supposed to be light green), and the text can be "filled, outlined, or a mix of both."

In one of the few videos available online of an Apple Watch Nike+ unboxing, Twitter user @Gielk can be seen opening the new Apple Watch and briefly examining the Black/Volt version of the Nike Sport Band.

​

Apple Watch Nike+ has launched in 41 countries today, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Mexico, and the rollout will continue with 7 new countries tomorrow and Israel on Sunday. In a press release shared earlier in the week, Apple also confirmed that the new Nike+ bands will not be sold separately, and can only be obtained by purchasing an Apple Watch Nike+ collection.

For those interested, the collections start at $369 for 38mm and go up to $399 for 42mm, and can be purchased from Apple.com, Nike.com, Apple retail stores, "select" Nike retail stores, and some department stores including Macy's and DICK'S Sporting Goods.
