thenerd, 20 Apr 2015No it's not, The Software on the Apple watch is just a dupl... moreBut that's the point it works in taxes with the phone unlike the android alternatives.

And actually I own both android and apple devices along with some watches.

But as an android fan boy that you most likelying are you are unwilling to try the other types of devicts. ... your loss

      Shipped not sold. Plus most of these are bought by scalpers and will be returned to Apple if not sold. I'd say only 1 million are bought by legit customers.

            Meh a watch with a plastic strap and looking like 4$ watches we sell at our store ... the only watch that makes sense to me is the 2 inch gear .. other than that it's nonsense specially if your work is watches all day long you'll make fun of the plastic 15 cent band. and yes the squarish ugly body.

                use iPhone. You can get to use both Apple Watch or Android Wear.

                More choice.

                      Safe to say, Apple Watch has destroyed the competition. No wonder Google is making Android Wear iOS compatible. They can't even rely on Android buyers. I thought they outnumbered iOS users 9 to 1?

                          AnonD-183154, 21 Apr 2015I am talking solid sales number. You are talking prediction... moreI never denied your numbers.. In fact I even support it by saying people will still buy apple watch despite the scratch issue on watch sport and the overall interface lag.. And most people will keep their watch in their desk after several month of usage.. But still there will be people buying apple watch.. There no shortage of buyers.. I only commented on your apps development prediction.. I say usage statistics will affect apps development.. Get it?

                              Best value for money is to get the apple watch standard. Do not go for the sport version.

                              As the standard one is coated in sapphire glass. Look at your iPhones's lens / touchid home buttons. They are never damaged or scratch in anyway.

                              Moto360 scratches so easily.

                                I think this just shows how uneducated we really are as a species.

                                  AnonD-314503, 20 Apr 2015iPhone users dont see Galaxy S6 expensive anyway, dont assume...Speak for yourself?! A) Price is a matter of opinion, but B) value is an entire different thing.

                                  Is the S6 expensive? Well, yes for some and no for others. It's on the exact same level as iPhone, so for most people here - YES.

                                  Is it good value? I'd say YES. For the design, build and features, it definitely can hold it's own weight. Not sure about Android, but that's a different story...

                                      read the fine print people, it says analyst not actual sales. just last week I heard they barely sold 700,000 and we're made five million of I heard they were made five million of them so that means 4,300,000 are still sitting on shelves
