Jimong5 posted:Is the original still decent or is the dual core pretty much needed for any serious user? I'm debating a new one but the fire sales on the old one could be pretty tempting Honestly no one will really know till the new one comes out and apps start to use the power. With that said the first one has served me well and I'm sure it will continue to do so for another year.

Blind Rasputin posted:Any reports about how actually waterproof the new watch is? I swim a lot and honestly if a watch says "50m water resistance" the most ill do is accidentally get it wet in the sink. Usually swimming laps for an hour + hot tub + shower will quickly wreck a 50m resistance. True divers is where it's at. I honestly don't believe this to be true. I've had a few 50m watches over the years and I've never had an issue.

Watch os3 seems to have my series 0 a little snappier. I also like they fixed the workouts so everything is on one screen.

Bum the Sad posted:I just looked and couldn't find one. Try removing poo poo from the dock. I think those apps run constantly. You can also disable background refresh for apps you don't think need it. Where did you disable app refreshes on the watch? I couldn't find that option.

One thing I don't like with WatchOS3 is that its not as easy to dismiss the notifications when they pop up. You have to scroll a bit for the dismiss button to pop up.

bilperkins2 posted:What's a good second charger cable, so I can have one for the office and one for at home? There's a lot on Amazon but on many it's not clear if they actually have a charger in them or if they're just a stand. Plus the Apple one is $40, is that just what I have to spend to get a second one? From what I know there aren't any third party charging cables. That may have changed but I don't think it has.

Duckman2008 posted:Bluetooth range for an iPhone 6S to Watch S2 is really, really good. I left my watch in my 3rd floor hotel room, went down to the pool on the 1st floor, got messages the whole time. Obviously a little bit of mileage will vary, but I didn't expect it to cut through near that much. Were you connected to the Hotel Wifi?

I'm at 91% after about 4 hours with about the same usage.

Gunder posted:Are you using the Workout app? I always use "Outdoor Walk" when i'm about to do some brisk exercise walking, and it always counts the full duration. It even tracks and maps the route you took on the iPhone Activity app. My outdoor walks never give me the full amount I always have to do like over an hour to get the 30 min.

I've done one walk for 1.5 miles already so I'll do another one later with the dog to see if it works. I'm guessing not but who knows.

Anya posted:I'm debating between the sport and stainless steel, on a series 2. I work in healthcare, and with the type of job I have, I bang my wrists/hands into beds/wheelchairs, parallel bars, and other heavy things all the time. I currently have a 4 year old Nike GPS running watch, which has taken a beating and still keeps ticking. For those of you with more active jobs, would you feel the sport or the stainless steel would hold up better- with regards to the screen/casing? I've read this thread since the beginning, but still haven't quite made up my mind, even with interrogating others who wear one. My job is way more active and I haven't had an issue with my series 0 sport. You'll be fine.

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:I would be surprised to see a yearly refresh on this product. Given that it is more of a peripheral than a main device, but still priced like a primary device, folks will not want to spend the money to upgrade as often, and will probably be more turned off by an annual refresh than on other products. That's a good point too. My only thing is that it feels like the battery on my series 0 isn't lasting nearly as long. I am really just hoping it lasts long enough for the series 3 to come out.

Yeah it's been really bad lately for me. It's been 15 hours off the dock and I'm sitting at 6%. I didn't even get very many notifications today and I didn't track any workouts. Maybe I'll have to do a wipe and restore and see if that fixes it.

I also don't work an office job so I'm out and about with it all day as well. It's held up pretty amazing.
