Ok, off-road POI GPS is pretty cool.

#%DXxx it. I accidentally clicked on the men's underwear ad on this page. Now I'm going to be spammed with menswear ads every time I visit this forum.

The watch features look great but what's this all going to do to the battery? I guess they will tell us next.

 

[NewdestinyX]

You hope they address battery life? You can get around one and a half days out if it...

They never talk exact battery specs at these keynotes

I like swimming and I've often wanted a tracker for swimming like they have for walking, running and biking. I've also wanted an SOS feature and GPS, so that's pretty cool. I don't know if that's enough to get me to buy one, but it's still pretty cool.

Where's Kevin Lynch to announce the watch?

 

[ChrisCW11]

So Pokemon Go on Apple Watch is an even more dumbed down version because you don't even have to hunt for the Pokemon with a camera to find it, just have to be near the area and tap your wrist. This feels very contrived to try and glom onto the success of Pokemon Go.

Looks like the best thing going for Apple these days is Nintendo apps.

So with the announcements so far, I can play Super Mario one handed while measuring my wanking frequency with my Watch on the other.

 

[AustinIllini]

This is brutal.

So no exterior design improvements in Series 2?

Macrumors Newbie? You don't say

 

[BootsWalking]

Somebody needs to take a water canon to the audience to wake them up.

 

[pheenix11]

Adamantium!

1000 nits -- is it still AMOLED?

Right? That's gonna generate a ton of heat inside the watch

Especially since if it goes up to 1000 nits its because it's so bright outside and the watch is already absorbing the heat from the sunlight.

British accent and still says "Yosemidee." Idiot.

Also schedule programme, colouer and centre. Program, color, center. Drives me nuts with the British. They are lovely people but I hate them for that.

I like the white ceramic. Looks gorgeous

 

[cardfan]

Heh, I thought he meant Siri 2. Series 2. What a name

Basically this Apple Watch is what the first one should have been. Have to say, I'm tempted now if the battery problems have been solved. I need 2 days...

 

[Gudi]

Impressive hardware upgrade, but I still have no use case for a watch.

 

[rGiskard]

Finally, the new watch bands!

 

[frifra]

So, I am waiting for the first underwater unboxing of the apple watch 2.

 

[Icaras]

Ceramic white Apple Watch 2.....my god....SOLD

 

[BFG86]

ceramic hmm. me thinks that's what the iPhone piano keys is

 

[5105973]

White ceramic watch. Yay bands!

 

[Flow39]

Let's get pricing and release!

 

[jdillings]

Ceramic watch.......GAME CHANGING. Where is Jony to introduce it?

 

[keysofanxiety]

Planned obsolescence at work right there.

What happened to the iPad 1 will always one-up any planned obsolescence comments.

You GOT IT!!
