Who the gently caress showers with a watch on anyway?

What I want to know, is how the ever-living gently caress they actually let the Apple Watch Edition edition name fly. How many people actually had to approve that name before it was official?

I'll buy a smart watch when you pry my Omega Speedmaster off my cold dead wrist. Mechanical watches satisfy my inner-nerd so much more than a watch where I can send my heartbeat to someone.

I feel like a Garmin would suit some of you so much better than an Apple Watch. Especially if you aren't going to bring a phone with you.

io_burn posted:When I preordered mine I preordered a bunch of 'em across multiple Apple ID's to be sure I'd get a launch day watch but I wasn't sure which one actually wanted to keep. My strategy was to just have like near-midnight preorders for everything I thought I might like, book a try-on appointment as soon as I could, figure out which I wanted then just cancel the rest. Surprisingly enough, the try-on appointments really were very open at my Apple Store, so I was able to go up there first thing, figure I liked the 42mm link bracelet the best, and then just cancelled all my other Apple Watches when I got back home. This is just about the most ridiculous thing I've read in this thread.

Never owned a smart watch before, so I have a couple questions. I'm considering the LTE version for my fiancee. She is a runner (just got accepted to Boston 2018 yesterday actually  ). She runs in the dark at 5am multiple times a week and brings her phone with her so I can Find My Friends her just to make sure she's not dead in a ditch somewhere. She wears a Garmin to track the runs. - I assume I could Find My Friends her watch if I got her the LTE version? Do we know anything about that yet? - For the GPS in the S2 or whatever, how accurate is it compared to a Garmin? Do most people use RunKeeper/Strava? Or does Apple have a built-in tracker? I'm trying to mash 2 devices into 1 small one since she hates carrying her phone or wearing it in a belt. Also, what's the difference between the "regular" Apple Watches and the Nike one? Is it just extra faces or whatever, or are there actual, meaningful differences? Henrik Zetterberg fucked around with this message at 20:40 on Sep 18, 2017 |

Braincloud posted:As a runner/cyclist who also hates carrying his phone or wearing it in a belt, I picked up the LTE version so I could ditch that phone at home. I doubt I'll make a lot of calls/texts, but it is nice to have. I've been lugging my phone around since my Fitbit fell apart last year. Yeah we've used Glimpse before, but it's kind of annoying since she has to set it up every time she runs. I like Find my Friends since I can just pull it open and see where all our devices are on demand.

For those of you with S2, how long does the battery last while the GPS is active? I assume GPS wrecks the battery.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:5 hours of active GPS on both series 2 and 3. 4 hours of GPS+LTE for the S3. LTE calling if the biggest offender on the S3 with just 1 hour of call time. Gross. When you say GPS+LTE, do you mean just by having LTE, or using it with the GPS (streaming music or whatever)?

I'm guessing it's partially the Wifi issue, but also the lovely battery life, which is a huge bummer, honestly. I was debating getting an LTE version, but if it dies at 4 hours using GPS and just having LTE on, then no thanks. It's pretty funny some reviewers are making a big deal about not having a signal on the ocean. Well no poo poo!

Run a marathon and tell me if it lasts the whole race with LTE enabled. Tia. Also, I assume it shows up in Find my Friends?

Agronox posted:S0 barely lasts a marathon with the workout app. But what in the world would you need LTE for during a marathon anyway? Time to catch up on those important calls? So I can track the person I'm buying it for while they run and meet up with them afterward.

Braincloud posted:Interesting- the GF didn't have any issues activating her's yesterday. Thank you for this data. Looks like the watch alone will not be enough for my fiancées marathon. Thinking of doing her Garmin for the GPS and then also having the LTE watch so I can track her via Find my Friends. Although wearing 2 watches is kinda dopey. How was the GPS accuracy of the watch? I assume the Garmin does it better since it's a dedicated device, but wondering if the Apple Watch was "good enough."

Agronox posted:This is more of a running thing than a watch thing, but which marathon is it? If it's a large enough one, there might be enough timing mats that you can track her online pretty painlessly. New York does this, for instance. Boston. The timing mats may suffice.

Cross-posting from the YLLS fitness thread... Any new recommendations on a lifting log tracker? I've been using Jefit Pro for like 7 years and it's cool. Curious if anything better has come out recently. I've been considering purchasing an Apple Watch, so something that has an AW app would be preferable. I see Strong and Gymaholic are pretty popular, but anything decent is locked behind a subscription. Jefit seems to give me all these "premium" features already, but it doesn't have AW support.

TraderStav posted:Strong is well worth the one time $3. Am I missing something? It looks like Strong is free but has monthly/yearly/life subscription options. I’m looking on my phone because I don’t have an AW yet, but I thought they were the same app?

drat, that sucks. Suppose I'll stick with Jefit. Unrelated question, if I get an LTE S3, can I enable/disable the LTE plans via ATT whenever I want? Say I want to use it this month, but cut it off for a couple months. Is that possible?

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. I know Apple usually has lame sales, like a $15 gift card or whatever. Kohl's has some bomb-rear end deals for Kohl's Cash, but it's only for the GPS version, unfortunately. Anywhere I should keep looking? Or is there very little chance of seeing a good deal on a S3 LTE?

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

Zero One posted:Target's ad shows no discount on S3 http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/BlackFridayScans/Target/9 Yeah I love how it lists the S3 as $329. Which is normal price. To the dude thinking about waiting, I’m in the same boat. I don’t have an AW and am getting the major itch to just fuckin buy one. I haven’t seen a deal on anything but the GPS version so far. I’m wondering if the LTE is going to see any discount at all. Henrik Zetterberg fucked around with this message at 08:55 on Nov 7, 2017 |

Duckman2008 posted:The only place I can really see having a discount is the carriers. End of the day, Apple probably doesn’t care that much on the $10 a month, but Verizon and ATT do. This is actually a pretty good point, unless Apple gets a cut of it. Also, I only ever see the sport band version on sale, come to think of it. I think I want a sport loop instead.

Caved and picked up an S3 LTE on the way home from work. I figured I have 30 days to return jt if it goes on a BF sale. This thing is light as hell.
