If the Apple Watch pro is 900 dollars and doesn’t any have a weeklong battery it will flop super hard big time

I think anyone expecting a weeklong battery is setting their expectations really high and will be sorely disappointed.

I can accept a 3 day battery if it costs 500 dollars and not a cent more, if the rumors are true and it’s 900 it’ll be a complete waste of money and wont even compete with Garmin.

I would like a new watch to not die in 2 hours if you’re using GPS+Cellular.

For just 950 dollars you can last 2 hours and 15 minutes!!!

The only thing that has the genuine probability of being interesting this year are the watches, the phones are just iterative nothings, if you have an iphone 12 you can wait another few years before upgrading becomes needed.

What I’m genuinely interested in is if the new ‘low power mode’ in the normal watches will help increase battery life to the point that they can say it’s a 24 hour watch.

What do people use their watch for? I have my phone in front of me on my desk or with me on couch / in bed all day long. I have considered getting the iWatch just for running outside without my phone but that one single benefit isn't worth hundreds of bux for me.

I get that not taking the phone out of a pants pocket or bag is a benefit, but idk if I have a strong use case to rationalize the purchase.

I’m getting it for the fitness tracking and integration with my phone and no not have a reason to look at my phone that often. But mainly for fitness tracking.

The only reason I would’ve gone for an Apple Watch series 8 is if the low power mode was hardware specific, turns out it’s gonna be on all the watches from series 4 up, so literally no point.
