I mean… I dont know what to say lol…. It’s like we already know everything that’s announced. Secrets haven’t been spoiled this bad in a while

Whoever is leaking details should be strung up by their toenails and tickled until they pee themselves. Rumours are fun, but actual, factual information ruins the anticipation.

Get rid of the notch on the iPhone and add a pig of a notch protruding out of the side of the watch ….. nice one apple, nice one.

I will probably stick with my AW 6 ( cellular) which still lasts 2 days for each battery recharge

Wanna bet on that not happening?
I don't think it'll be made in sufficient quantities to merit a blowout price but in my opinion a $1,000 Apple Watch is prime for discounting, probably at the percentage of their prior "niche" product, the AirPods Max. Time will tell, but I'd lean toward taking that bet.

The people clamoring for Ive are ignoring the fact that he was likely involved in this. They have been working on this Pro model for several years and he had been consulting with Apple still up until recently.

Better chance there is still a shipping delay due to orders on it come Black Friday than it'll be a doorbuster as said above.

Ugly AF, if it turns out to be as rendered here. And even if it's not, it seems like it'll be much more pricey than a "normal" 8. I'll likely just upgrade my 6 to an 8, if it represents a significant enough improvement... otherwise, I can wait another year.
If you haven’t considered giving up your Apple Watch for a Garmin, this probably isn’t intended for you, so you don’t have to like it.

I hope the band attachment points are more inboard from the edges of the watch case than they are on the other Apple watches. My wrists are thin, and even with my 45mm Apple Watch there’s a lot of daylight between the band and my wrist at the ends of the case.

~400 is already a tough pill if they actually double the price or more they are completely insane. I’m sorry a bulkier watch with ann extra button isn’t worth it.
Insane? You realize there are already Apple Watches that cost $800 right? The stainless and titanium watches are in that price range and the Hermes watches cost 3x.
