Yep. Shame to them for ripping off a product that doesn't even exist!

And I'll leave this here once again. You might argue it hasn't taken off but it's a freaking smart watch.

But but but they have valid arguments like:

1. Apple perfects everything
2. Samsung is copying the non existent iWatch
3. Samsung is only making a watch because of iWatch rumors
4. Boycotting Samsung is good unless it's parts for an Apple products
5. Samsung products should not have a Samsung logo

🙄

One would think that if they only thought about it just a bit longer, they would realise how silly they are...

Apple had a speaker dock for the iPod but to be frank, it isn't as perfect as what it's touted to be.😀

And don't get me started on their "perfect" Maps.

Does Sony do anything to make it better? No.
Add to that I like Sony, but they really need to understand that firmware is an important part of smart hardware. Same goes for Samsung.

Well, Apple fans can say what they want, but Samsung sells more units than Apple. In other words: More customers choose Samsung products, and for good reasons - Samsung being "a copycat" probably isn't on that list.

Apple will be first? With what? With unannounced products while everybody else in this industry already have announced products and others are already shipping some strange smartwatches that nobody in the 21st century anymore needs?

I wouldn't be surprised if the iWatch will become just another vaporware zombie as the iTV that's still nowhere to be seen.

Really???? The last report I saw had Apple #1 in smart phone sales.

You're always so positive and enlightening. Makes me wonder why you hang out here with so many negative posters who always seem to have some hidden vendetta for bashing Apple. 🙄

Introducing the iCondom. The world's first smart contraception. "We've patented the hell out of it"

It's revolutionary. Magical. It just works.

And then Samsung makes Sbaloon touting its radical new design 😀... The logo looks suspiciously similar and chief designer claims they worked 24/7 to come up with that.... 😛

And then the fanboys rage saying Apple made the condom first, no one ever thought of making condoms before Apple.

The biggest innovation I look forward to seeing is how Apple, Samsung and any other company overcomes the battery longevity issues for such a small device.

If they have a significant breakthrough, it could lead to much improved performance in other mobile devices.

They will be solar or kinetically charged on the go.
 
Hurry up Apple

"We've been preparing the watch product for so long.

Translation:
"We hope to get this product on the shelves as soon as Apple shows us what it should look like."
 
I wonder if tech companies release fake stories to see how closely the competition is watching and copying. For example, what would Samsung do if Apple released a statement like, "Apple confirms work on iWeight which is a shoe insert with bluetooth that allows constant weighing and tracking of a person." (just made that up so be nice). Who would copy it and waste resources...it'd be interesting but obviously it'd have to be a little more believable than my example.
 
It's great to hear about Samsungs Smartwatch Project. As long as Apple is intent on building one, the competition will be an excellent motivator.

Although I have no interest in these, at least it provides the headlines Apple thrives on.

If by development, you mean waiting until Apple develops theirs for ideas 😀

Hopefully, after they release something along the lines of what their limited imaginations think Apple will be developing, Apple will then release something far superior, which will make their device a flop.

Of course they'll then just release something else which rips off Apple's iWatch claiming it's all just one big coincidence.
