Does anyone have any recommendations for third party straps for the series 3 in the uk? I haven't worn a watch in maybe 10 years so the whole thing is relatively new to me and don't want to be dropping the big bucks for genuine ones straight away if they aren't going to fit/suit.

Probably going to be a steel band or woven nylon really, I hate the rubber/silicone style ones

The Snapchat and Twitter icons have been broken since updating to iOS 4 on my series 2. Anyone else? Or reset and it will fix itself.

Snapchat doesn't have a watch app though and Twitter dropped support with their latest update.

I think he just means the app icon in the notification. I also have been getting blank ones but now I can’t remember which app it was.

I feel like Best Buy has hit their "clearance" pricing for Series 2 watches -- they're down to very limited availability in-store and online of all models. Space Black Stainless Steel 42mm is down to $429. They've also got a Space Black w/ Milanese Loop, but seemingly no (silver) stainless steel left online. I hopped on it because I really wanted to upgrade to a Space Black, but wasn't interested in paying like $650+ for data/voice I won't use and apps opening a second quicker.

Ah. Never mind my comment then.

What kind of battery life are you guys getting using the Siri face? I'm ending the day at like 15% with it on my 0.

Yeah, it's the mirrored notifications. Looking online, apparently it's quite a widespread issue.

Edit:

What are the chances of an Apple Watch shipping early?

An iPhone 8 ordered after release had something like a "2 week" delivery estimate.

For example, my current iPhone 8 (256GB) was ordered on Sep 28th and Apple gave me a "Delivers by Oct 12" message... but then suddenly on the 29th or 30th the order changed to "Preparing to Ship", and it was in my hands by Oct 2nd.

My order for a Space Black Stainless Steel at the same time still has its November delivery date listed.

Not liking the 'fog'-colored sports band on my Series 3 as much as I thought I would.

What are the goon-recommended third-party strap brands to shop for? I'd mostly be looking for other colors of sports bands or maybe something in the style of a NATO strap.

Has anyone else had their watch die but you put it on the charger and it's like at 90%?

Went for a 2 hour run this weekend with LTE disabled, downloaded music playing, and Strava running, and my S3 still had 50% battery at the end. I'm ok with that.

It's better than the first time I did that with LTE on and it dropped to 23%. I forgot to add, it was at about 90% when I started.

Would I prefer it not eat that much battery? Well, yeah...
