The Apple Watch: The Wait is Over?
According to the announcement that was made on September 9th of 2014, the anticipated Apple Watch will soon be upon us. Apple claimed that early 2015 will mark the big debut of the smartwatch, as well as two other iterations (Apple Watch Sport and Apple Watch Edition). The information available so far is based on select tester reviews and hints made by Apple.
Currently, the idea of a smartwatch has yet to be solidified. It’s a watch with “extras” that your smartphone or tablet might otherwise do. These extras include making and receiving calls as well as scanning messages to generate an easy answer response (when possible).
The Apple Watch is being reviewed as the best smartwatch on the market. It has different size and color choices to fit your personality and taste. There are size options for each type of Apple Watch. The sizing and the band preference allow for a total of 36 choices. The face of the watch is said to be a little “chunky,” like a cross between an iPhone 6 and iPod Nano. Still, most agree that the look is sharp.
Apple is putting their foot in the door with the trendy and fashionable tech option. But is it useful and competitive? The short answer is yes. The interface of the Apple Watch is arguably more user-friendly than other smartwatches. The Digital Crown is a dial that allows you to zoom in or out on the current page, making it easier to see and press one of the many small spherical icons. Tapping the Crown returns you to the home screen while the button below can take you to your contact list or enable the Apple Pay feature.
Additional features include a sketching app and use as a fitness band. Currently, Apple does not appear to be capitalizing on either the game or the health market.
The Apple Watch looks promising but doesn’t bring anything extraordinary to the table. Until it is released and is assigned a set price, you’re better off sticking with your smartphone or tablet. In that case, make sure both are functioning at their best. If you encounter accidental damage or any malfunctions, trust Cell Phone Repair technicians to get it back in peak condition quickly. Most repairs happen within the same day and include a limited lifetime warranty. Look for a CPR location near you!
