MarcusSA posted:Something weird I've noticed own my SE and I think its a bug. Have you been twisting your wrist in a handwashing/jerk off motion? It might be handwashing detection. It watches for the twisting of the wrist, and then when it detects that, it listens for running water and the squelching of soap.

Snuffman posted:I think I'm wash my hands wrong, the handwashing thing has never worked for me so I just turned it off. I've found really over emphasising the twist in the wrist, and making sure the water is nice and splashy tends to make it work.

Prepaids are explicitly unsupported on Apple Watch, so your only choices are the big 4 post-paids.

Do they really need to demo Wayfinder with not one but two separate compasses, one as the ring, and one as the complication?

chocolateTHUNDER posted:Apparently my wife's apple watch series 2 does not exist according to best buy, and apple website says it's not worth anything for trade in. Weird. I mean the truth is at this point it's basically guaranteed to be recycled there isn't any value for it as a refurb device at this point

The Illusive Man posted:I'm torn on which Apple Watch I'd like to get - Stainless Steel Series 8, or Ultra. For context, in the past I've had an aluminum Series 0, and an aluminum Series 4. The Ion-X glass on my S4 got covered in micro-scratches so I would appreciate the sapphire glass on the higher-end models. I'd still get AC+ tbh I know that on my Ti S6, I actually have a better deal for AC+, as Edition watches came with 2 years of warranty, so my S6 still has coverage until next year

Endless Mike posted:Apple's leather goods are hot trash (barring the Hermes models but I don't think those come in black and they're priced as high fashion brand items in any case) and if you want a leather strap, you're better off searching Amazon or Etsy. There's lots of options for those. My leather loop is pretty okay, but they discontinued that band and only have leather link now.

Branch Nvidian posted:What’s “funny” about the Watch Ultra is that it’s only $50 more than the 45mm Stainless Steel Series 8. I’d be far more inclined to get the Ultra than the Stainless Steel model given all the additional benefits the Ultra has for only an extra Grant. Yeah when the announcement happened my company was live watching, we were all guessing more than a grand for it, and when it dropped at the price it did we were all like “what the gently caress”.

The short version is officially you can’t trade watch bands without returning the entire purchased watch. Whether or not a specialist in store does the trade is something they won’t say and you should definitely not post “thanks to Mike at store 123 for trading the band”

Combat Pretzel posted:So I got my AWU2. I've been looking up plenty of pictures in the related subreddits and watched quite a few reviews. And it looked Flava Flav kind of big on quite a lot of these, especially the reddit pictures. Either these people are using some pretty wide focal lengths for the pictures, or they're stick people, or I'm just fat as gently caress (I'm like 163lb at 5'9", so no). While it's noticeable bigger, it's way less than anticipated based on aforementioned examples. Luckily. You spend enough time looking at watch subreddits (this applies to both smart and dumb watches) and you realize the average watch subreddit poster has a noodle wrist.

Combat Pretzel posted:When did the Recent Apps page behavior change, in that it'll only allow you half a second to react before making the last open app active, when entering the app stack from the watch face? must be new-ish in a point update to watchOS 10 thank you for mentioning this actually, because the thing that I was really annoyed by with the change to control center / recent apps made me think there wasn't a way to quick switch between apps, but it'll swap between the last two active ones now, which is exactly the old behavior

It’s a combination of everyone online having noodle wrists, and Apple I suspect intentionally using noodle wristed models for the Ultra advertising. Since it really isn’t that much bigger than the big regular one, they needed to emphasize the size somehow, so using a smaller wrist person for the product shots makes it feel bigger

Splinter posted:So in the USA, the only way I can get an Apple Watch that measures SpO2 at this point is if I buy a used model that was purchased before the early 2024 cutoff (which can be verified by certain characters in the model number)? Change of ownership on an old model doesn't affect this? Additionally, if you need to have it warrantied for any reason, you'll likely lose SpO2, since Apple Watch warranties are all hardware swaps.

Kalman posted:Apple’s permitted to bring in functional SpO2 watches for service/repair and for warranty replacement. (This doesn’t 100% mean you won’t lose SpO2, since what they’re permitted to do is distinct from what they’ll actually do, but the actual judgment provided them with this ability.) everything that I've seen is that warranty swaps end up as SpO2-disabled ones
