Really? Because I heard a lot of people on here say they'd kill for a one-week lasting phone.But yeah, battery life as a product’s “best feature” is not a good sign.

Can we all agree that wearable tech is dead and move on?
Can we all agree that wearable tech is dead and move on? While people still may buy them for fashion their function has been eroded to nothing at this point. Ap developers pulling out, limited by the phones they connect to and without a keyboard, the watch was a nice idea but is purely a fashion item now. It’s like being sold VR gear in 2018 when we all know the issue isn’t the tech but the idea of VR. The watch is dead to me.
For example: Jony Ive didn't create nor improve the "rounded rectangle design". The Pebble Smartwatch was out 3 years before the Apple Watch..
Even though Apple weren't the first to market with the square (or rectangular) smartwatch, I think it's fair to say that this bears more than a passing resemblance to the AW design language. When Apple released the AW they made a lot of refinements and to say it's just another "square smartwatch" is a bit disingenious.wait are you saying Apple was the first company with a square smart watch? Common, even you don't believe that...
Battery life is still something I care about - it's nice having a 4 day battery life when the cable is a proprietary one and harder to charge than a regular one, fiddling around with it every day or 2 is more of a chore.Another dead on arrival "rival" for Apple Watch. Unfortunately for Fitbit, it's no longer about the niche that its products do very well. Apple Watch addresses that and so much more.
The best thing that Fitbit had going for it was the battery life of its products. But consumers seem to care less about that now.
First of all, Apple still sells Series 1 w/o GPS for over $199.
Secondly, I honestly think there is a space for a smartwatch/fitness tracker without GPS.
