Still wear my series 0 every day. I love my watch and look forward to future iterations!
They haven’t dropped their focus on fashion. Watch bands? Also, the price has never gone down.So targeting the fashion industry with ridiculously overpriced models that now have a small fraction of whatever they were originally valued at was the “best solution?”
I wish Ive would just admit they completely botched the initial roll out, and if not for changes that were made with the Series 1 and 2 models that both lowered the price and returned focus to functionality instead of fashion the Apple Watch would have failed spectacularly.
"According to Ive, Apple CEO Steve Jobs had no particular interest in watches"
I can see why. No offense to anyone who bought one, I'm sure they have their use cases but they are just meh to me and I still have no interest in them or the product category in general. I don't see the Watch as the game-changing product like the iPod, iPhone and iPad.

Here we go again. Steve presided over plenty of flops. See: iPod hifi, G4 cube, buttonless iPod shuffle, hockey puck mouse, mobile me, iMac G4. He also misjudged the market on numerous occasions; he was wrong about larger screen phones, for example, and stylus-like input for tablets. A great, visionary CEO who fundamentally understood how to market products and get fans excited, but did not have a crystal ball. The Watch is a perfect example of a tremendous success that Jobs obviously didn’t foresee.Hm. So I'm with Steve on this one. Along with a lot of his other positions, it seems. Odd, I wasn't a huge Jobs fan while he was alive, and am certainly unfit to judge his character as a person, but the more Apple strays from what it was under him, the more I'm beginning to appreciate a lot of his ideas on product.

One of these days Apple will figure out which problem the Apple Watch actually solves. Right after they figure out which problem Face ID solves.
Lol ok Mr "Make it thinner!".
