So I had another loop and I think the sport loops look way better in general on the black. I just don’t like the bands that have a silver buckle.

Received my open-box Apple Watch today. Surprisingly, beyond the box that had markings on it. Everything inside was brand new and the charger cable was still wrapped in its cardboard sleeve. Almost as if the last person who had it just opened it and then returned it. I'm able to even buy AppleCare on it! Not bad for 280 bucks for a Series 3.

You’d be surprised how often that poo poo is a gift or w/e and someone simply doesn’t like the color. Half those “open box” items probably weren’t even turned on

The loaded Watch OS was 4.0 and we're on what, 4.3 now? 8-bit Miniboss fucked around with this message at 22:27 on Mar 31, 2018 |

My friend works at a Apple retailer (not Apple itself) and yeah 9 times out of 10 it’s just “oh i didn’t like the color/style” or the giftee didn’t. As you’d expect any open box item is largely gone before they get to the shelves. Inner employee network and all that. I guess my point is when it comes to openbox poo poo Apple is often a safer bet compared to others

My favorite band is actually a $13 poo poo one that had a crazy colored pattern on it. It’s really hit or miss with people but it stands out and looks unique.

I get all-day battery life on my S2. Which is to say, if I forget to charge it overnight, I might need to charge in the morning.

Get a few notifications during the day and then use it for a 60 minute gym workout and end the day with approx 30%. Charge it again to 100% when I get home and then sleep with it for sleep tracking via AutoSleep. Repeat.

My S2 will go about 2 days, if I'm staying somewhere that I don't have my charger with me I can usually get a second day's use out of it until I get home that night.

I don't know what she does to it or if it's just worn down worse, but she'll put it on at the beginning of the day and at the end of the work day it's dead. Whereas my S3 is usually at about 75% at bedtime. Nerdrock fucked around with this message at 16:18 on Apr 3, 2018 |

I can usually squeeze out three days on my S3 without charging it or turning it off at night (something I've never actually thought to do, I like the Night Stand feature).

Does iSmoothRun not do VO2max calculations? It looks like it's in the settings but it just says "not measured," and if I tap on it, it just asks me for a value. If I go into Apple Health, it looks like the only entries are from "Apple Watch" or another app I use for something unrelated. It definitely doesn't have an AW entry for every run I do, however.

Zwille posted:Weird. Did ya try unpairing and pairing again yet? Usually does the trick for me. oh yeah. a few times over the last couple years. She's rarely worn it in the past 6 months to a year because it's been so bad. One of these days i'll get motivated and just grab the watch and pair it to my phone and use it for a day or two and see how it goes. Probably a waste of time anyways, as she likely wants an S3 anyways. She'll try and con me into buying her one as a 'push present' in the next few months probably.
