Got my stainless series 2 watch with link band yesterday and I'm in love. This is my first Apple Watch and it's exactly what I wanted.

beergod posted:When are the S2's supposed to be available if you didn't preorder? I'm actually surprised they aren't available to purchase now, which is probably stupid of me. I don't know I was looking for my wife and pretty much all the models on the Apple website says ship in 3-5 weeks.

housefly posted:So S2 owners who have owned the previous one. I have a few days left to return my original for a full refund. Should I go ahead and upgrade? Still on the fence. I'm not concerned about the price difference. Just return the drat thing and upgrade. You get a faster processor, insane water proofing, potentially better battery life, and GPS. Also like some goons said when Watch OS4 comes out in a year Apple will probably pull a your watch is too lovely to upgrade thing.

Jose Oquendo posted:Define polish. I just use one of those pre-moistened wipes for eyeglasses whenever it gets dirty. Same for the watch case itself. My watch and band look fantastic. Like actual metal polish for scratches. Edit: Google says no. It's a thin black coating. Bum the Sad fucked around with this message at 16:19 on Sep 18, 2016 |

GuardianOfAsgaard posted:I really can't believe people would buy one of Apple's link bracelet bands, it literally costs more than the series 2 watch itself. I'm sure it's nicely made and all that, but come on... It's already an expensive gadget, save yourself £400 (!) and get a third party one. I paid $1700 for my last Tag, a grand didn't sound too bad for a slick watch. I can forever move it forward when I upgrade too.

xgalaxy posted:"Forever". We'll see. I'm not convinced they will keep the current band connection design X revisions later. Oh no, then I'll buy a new one in a couple revisions. If the 2018 model accepts it and I can get four years out of it I'll be happy. Bum the Sad fucked around with this message at 19:30 on Sep 18, 2016 |

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.

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:I just got a new phone. Do I have to go through the unpair process on my old one first or is there a way to carry it over to the new one since I'm restoring a backup to the new phone? Phone will tell you what to do, you wipe the watch and the phone restores it. So yeah I guess its the unpair process.

Rick Sanchez posted:So if I got a Series 2 watch and turned off GPS and kept the screen at a decent brightness, would my battery last longer than the batter on a Series 1? I don't think you need to turn off GPS, I think it'll only use that when using an exercise app without the phone present. I'm making that up but it makes sense.

I'm guessing my apartment is small enough to where it never switches over. But I swear the speakerphone craps out after like 10 feet. I don't think it did this for the week I had it with my 6+. Maybe my 7+ bluetooth radio is just poo poo. Bum the Sad fucked around with this message at 01:56 on Oct 10, 2016 |

Google "watchos beta profile download" and you'll be on your way Thanks for the heads up, gently caress it, I'll pass though. All the links are for the old 3.0 beta, I don't know if I need to install shady poo poo on my new watch anyway.

So I was bitching on the last page about my Watch's speakerphone capability having a range of like 3 feet. So I unpaired(wiped) then repair'd the drat thing and it's now behaving like it should. I have no clue what the gently caress that was.

tirinal posted:Audiobook + watch trip report: it works. Badly, and you have to jury rig it with a file splitter and a lot of micromanaging, but it works. Hopefully somebody comes up with an app solution soon. Water lock mode just prevents screen presses "locks the screen", then of course it clears out the speaker.

enojy posted:My S1 battery life was sorta poo poo before 3.1, it'd be anywhere from 20% to 40% after about 16 hours, but it lasted a day. Yesterday was a full day on 3.1, and I put it on the charger 16 hours later at like 85%. I even upped the brightness to full halfway thru the day. It'd be funny if the update hosed up the battery gauge and in reality it's just gonna shut down at 70% charge.

When in doubt un-pair and re-pair. It'll back up your watch then restore.
