Would you consider the Apple Watch a accessory or a standalone product

[Applewatch42]

Me personally, I think it’s a standalone but what about everyone else

Apple Watch requires being paired to iPhone. Pretty much answers your question.

I think it could easily be a standalone product, if only Apple would get rid of the requirement to pair it with an iPhone.

THIS. From a technical standpoint AW cannot be used until after it’s been paired to an iPhone. It’s an iPhone companion product.

I guess you could buy a car without the engine. 🙄

Your sig states you have an iPhone so how, and please be specific, do you find the AW to be a standalone device?

 

[BugeyeSTI]

Not a stand alone device.. i doubt it ever will be

 

[shakopeemn]

I wish ALL of the apps were independent from the iPhone app. You would think cellular AW apps would be stand alone.

You would think…

For me the watch compliments the phone. It saves me from having to pull our my phone all the time.
