Show off your Apple Watch

I am looking at twice the power efficiency despite the screen being slightly larger and the case a little thinner.

[...] I decided to just charge it back to full in the evening while I did my other stuff. It's also a good alternative to leaving it on the charger all night (does that really harm battery health?)

I am not sure if I want to stick with the same Nike band for the entire day (it is comfy) or switch to another fabric band (like the sport loop) for when I am at home.

Thanks for sharing! I'm coming from an S4, it's great to know the two generations of process shrinks have made a difference.

You can leave it overnight charging, as long as you haven't disabled the optimise option in the watch battery settings, the OS will learn your charging habits and keep the battery at 80% until closer to the time you wake up.

I personally use it every night for sleep tracking. So I put it on a charger as I'm getting ready for bed and charge it to 100%. Works a treat and should be even better with the faster charging of the S10.

I don't see a need to change out of the Nike loop at night for a sport loop as they're the same band in different design.

In case you were wondering what Ice Blue Ocean on Natural Titanium looked like

When initially shown at the event, I wasn't really a fan of this, but video reviews and especially a lot of the live-pictures online show it way better - Looks like a nice snow-icy-blue

Ah, I was referring to the nylon band with that Velcro strap. Feels lighter and even more comfortable, and somehow even more of a ripoff at the price. 🤣

If you throw in a pocket of pants or shorts and put it in the wash every once in awhile you can keep it clean. I have the orange one from the original Ultra that still looks good.

Thanks for the tip! I‘ll have to try that.

Asked around some local Apple Stores around me, and found one that still had the now discontinued Sunshine Sport Band sitting out the back - happily purchased. I will post proper photos of it in daylight soon, but for now indoor night shots, it’s a great match with Natural Titanium S10. This photo also demonstrates nicely how the Nat Ti differs looking both light and dark depending on the lighting

Broke a habit if a lifetime and opened the OEM Alpine loop strap and glad I did. It's very comfy and IMO nicer quality than the first Alpine loop straps for the AWU

The greens a superb colour too

After 10 years trying different apple watch bands and after trying all ultra specific bands, there is no other (for me) like Nike Sport band for everyday use without any worries about sweat, smell, water, wine, oil, etc. it’s as comfortable as possible and you can clean it easily to maintain it like first day. Here Black AW2 + Blue/Obsidian Nike sport band combo, an stellar one. What a shame that the watch is too bulky for me…in some positions of my hand when I move the wrist I can feel the crown and its metal surroundings stuck in the skin, being a painful experience. I hope black S10 will be the perfect one.

have you tried switching the orientation so the crown sits on the other side?

With the crown on the left to be move with right hand? It would be too unnatural…

AW Series 10 42 mm in gold 🤩

This looks so good! I feel like I need to pick up a gold one now. Jet Black is fun, but I really like this hue of gold for the Series 10!

I'm such a fan of Sport Bands, and this 'Panda' combination is awesome!

This combo might just convince me to get a black thread band. It looks incredible!

You actually get used to it. I always had issues activating the crown with my aw s3 and changed the orientation but continued wearing the watch on my left hand

🔥 do they discount you if you happen to buy an Apple Watch band that just got discontinued and grab the remaining stock? Just curious 🧐 how you got it.

Now with both your 45mm S9 graphite and the 46mm S10, which one do you wear more frequently? Which Apple Watch ⌚️ is your favorite since you now have both a S9 and a S10?

Today’s picture is a gold SS Apple Watch Series 6 with one of the bands i have not worn since I got my S6. I used to wear it a lot with my space gray Apple Watch Series 1.

In yellow? From which retailer?

I'm unsure about it; looks a bit narrow to me and not massively keen on that look. The OEM alpine loop is quite narrow

 

[madrigal77]

Looks nice, not at all like a pip boy 😉

What's your wrist size?

I don't know lol. I usually take the small/medium band though.
