Turnquiet posted:If I buy a discounted S2, will I hate myself for not getting apple care? I figure this thing at 280 is disposable w/in 3 years anyway, and I feel like my Amex card's free 2x manufacturer warranty would handle anomalies. It’s durable enough that I don’t think it’s really worth it but it’s only $50 so if it’ll make you feel comfortable then go for it.

Or just use the stock weather app. It’s always been accurate for me and naturally works well on watch.

watchOS 5 won’t support the first gen Apple Watch. Guess it’s finally time for me to update. When are the series 4 watches expected?

Finally upgraded to an S4 from an S0 and holy poo poo, what a massive difference. I really want to try the EKG feature and hope it won’t be too long.

I’m starting to think the 44mm Watch may be a bit too big for me but the 40mm also seems too small. Has anyone gone from a pre-S4 42 down to 40? If so, satisfied? Wondering if I should maybe do an exchange. SeANMcBAY fucked around with this message at 07:45 on Sep 25, 2018 |

Ultimate Mango posted:Any tips on troubleshooting occasional rapid battery drain? I have it happen once but Mrs Mango has her watch go to <10% by the afternoon (doing nothing out of the ordinary, not even a workout) at least once a month. Rebooting it helps sometimes but it’s really random and frustrating. How old is her watch?

Happy Noodle Boy posted:So I’m weak willed and switched from a 42mm S3 to a 40mm S4 while checking them out since they had 1 left in stock. The bigger display on a smaller frame is really loving awesome, the dumb rear end watch face with 8 complications is cool and everything is even faster compared to the already fast S3. How’s it compare size wise for you?

Jose Oquendo posted:Got my new SSB and holy moley this thing is beautiful and fast. I think this is the version where everything has been figured out and they’ve been able to execute what they envisioned for the Watch all along. First gen Apple products always get the fanciest packages. I noticed they also greatly reduced the charger cord length from my S0 one.

After wearing a Milanese loop for a week, putting back on the sport band feels so satisfying. It’s not that the Milanese loop is uncomfortable but the watch with the sport band is easily the most comfortable watch I’ve ever worn.

I’m not a large guy so I was kinda worried 44mm may be too big for me but it looks virtually indistinguishable from the older 42mm watches.

LODGE NORTH posted:3rd party complications can only refresh every 15 or 90 minutes. Some lesser known apps get around this by using the Calendar complication to push events since that can be updated at any time. That’s pretty poo poo. Hopefully watchOS 6 opens that up.

Endless Mike posted:You can take my S2 from my cold, dead hands or just not offer a WatchOS update and then I'll upgrade!!!! watchOS 5 not being supported on the S0 is what got me to upgrade. With the way I use the watch, it doesn’t really bother me if it slows down slightly with os updates so I plan on keeping my 4 for a while until they introduce more health sensors.

SpaceCadetBob posted:Are they actually decent for phone conversations? I spend a lot of time talking to my teammates in the field and things can be noisy, so making sure I output a good clear sound is pretty important. They work really well and the sound quality for music is surprisingly decent for Bluetooth earbuds as well.

Clark Nova posted:In 10 months I've gone from a 2-day battery charge with a comfortable margin for overnight charging every other day, to consistently crapping out early/mid afternoon on the second day if I don't charge it every night, so yeah, battery degradation is pretty bad. My series 4 is starting to get bad too. I’m gonna see if the battery is degraded before the warranty is up soon.

Minidust posted:Definitely gonna get my first Apple Watch! Most likely GPS, but can someone briefly explain how cellular works (at lest in the U.S.)? It's hard to get a straightforward answer since carrier websites are mostly awful and don't really provide relevant info without corralling you through the entire purchase process. Like would I just be paying Verizon an extra Pretty much just the extra a month. Its usefulness will depend on how often you're not with your phone.
