Walmart had the S2 for $250 so I decided to get the wife one for her birthday. I’m not sure she will really use it all that much but she was complaining that she didn’t have an Apple Watch. She’s terrible about remembering to charge her phone so I’m not expecting much. It’s a great price for the S2 though I can’t expect it will go much lower before they are all gone.

Yeah, Best Buy had a pretty great S2 sale last last week, $229 for the 38mm and $249 for the 42. I’d keep my eyes open for S2 deals until they finally run out of them.

Cool, thanks dudes. I'll keep my eye out for a deal and won't splurge on one on the way home from work today. Jerks.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Any chance there will be a decent deal on the S3 LTE ver for Black Friday? I haven't tracked the watches on past BFs. Carriers might do a deal with that, if I remember right you have ATT, so keep an eye on their promos as well. Sometimes they’re good, sometimes they’re terrible.

My S2 on 4.1 immediately reboots after any question with the word “weather,” and there’s a whole thread on reddit with the same complaint.

Anyone run into an issue with their watch not showing third party complications? I just had to unpair/repair with a new phone and now I can’t add my Strava or Wunderground complications; they don’t appear in the list. Both apps are installed tho. S3 and iPhone X. Edit: well it seems to have just magically fixed itself. Braincloud fucked around with this message at 17:22 on Nov 5, 2017 |

TVs Ian posted:Yeah. The workout detection seems wonky too - twice a week I take a 3 mike hike in the woods with my wife and dogs, and sometimes the watch only counts 15 minutes of the 90 minute walk as exercise. Same with using the treadmill at home, it’s usually just behind the treadmill itself on the distance counter, but it records anywhere from 50-100% of it on the ring. You can force the ring to treat the hike as excersize by setting an 'open goal' outdoor walk workout as you leave. The watch will treat whatever you do as excersize for the hike. I know this because I have to set it to recognize that a bike ride is a bike ride and sometimes I forget and suddenly the watch is super proud of me for doing 90 minutes of exercise when what actually happened is I rode for 20 minutes and then wandered around a grocery store for 70.

I'm guessing that due to the posts about the Now Playing app earlier in the thread there is no way to get it without turning off the pop-up face? Also is there something to replace the twitter app? It sucked quite a bit but once in a while I'd attempt to scroll through my timeline and I wouldn't mind something like that which was just mindless, mostly pointless text.

What's better for getting all sweaty, the sport band or loop? I do like the loop look a bit better for everyday wear.

Sport band is good for exercise but if you're using it for long runs it can irritate the skin a bit. It needs to be washed after exercise

So I use to check my headphone battery percentage with my watch battery icon thing. Even though the headphones are paired to my phone, not the watch. Anyway, that just stopped showing up. It only shows the watch battery now. I can't tell if it's WatchOS 4.1 or the iPhone X causing it. Any ideas?

Ok people, I’m now allowed to buy the Apple Watch series 3. The question is simple: do I Buy now, or wait to see if there is a Black Friday deal?

Might as well wait since it’s not too far away. I think we’re more likely to see crazy deals on series 1 and 2 watches though.

I’m upgrading from the series 2, so I won’t benefit from the series 2 discounts. Basically, I’m either buying from Apple or Verizon. Apple normally offers a gift card for purchases on their stuff for Black Friday, and I’m not sure if Verizon will offer a promo or not.
