Ironically that 300 pounds Tag Heuer will automatically be obsolete, when Apple Watch comes out.
Look at Nokia, they were happily making junk phones for years, before iPhone came out. Then in a few short years .. Apple, then android changes the whole world of mobile electronics. Making any phone more then 2 years a ancient device.
The same thing is gonna happen to the watch keeping companies. All of them should be on their toes, and not be caught sleeping when Apple comes in.
Sure there will always be people who like old watches and flip phones, but its always better to be save then sorry.. else you get reduced like nokia.

Time has already moved far ahead than apple and nobody waits for apple. Nowadays in $340 we can get much more better and precious devices than latest iphone in the market. So apple can't make people fool again and again.

Apple Watch will be successful, just like the iPhones.
It will lead to tons of anger, denial and confusion from the android fanboys. They will be thinking.. WHY WHY android wear is cheaper, more functions, more compatibility why is it less successful?
Then their brains will explode and convince the world is taken over by izombies and retarded people.. thats has to be the explanation!

Do you know that the "offcicial" (haha) OSX was in fact developed by Xerox?
Do you use the notifications tab on your iPhone? The "official" one was developed on Android...
Do you know that the "official" retina display has worse pixel density than any other Android flagship's screen?
hahaha
Cheers man!

I have happily paid 250usd on my steel well built moto360 but I would never have paid 1000usd or even 500usd on a smartwatch that will be dated by next year.

Is simply because the price gives it that premium tag and most Apple fans would simply by anything Apple without even considering any alternative.

He should have just stated that this applies to all smartwatches, not just Apple Watch.
I mean, in principle, Apple Watch provides perhaps a better experience than its rivals - not having tried it myself - but there's still no real user need for a smartwatch. For now. This will potentially change in 2-3 years as battery life improves and features become more relevant.

AnonD-314503, 16 Mar 2015That is not official instagram, sorry, were used to OFFICIA... moreYour emphasis on the word official showcases the mindset of you and the big horde trapped in the fruit ecosystem. There is no escape from the walled garden and you continue to enjoy its "genius" benefits. Have a look at this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9JQsXPd41U
It perfectly encompasses the idea of the fruit dream. In this video a $20 casio watch is branded with a fruit sticker and have a look how unaware fruit fans go gaga about its features and design and build quality.
So its down to a basic philosophy, If a product comes from the fruit vendor, then it must be good. Full stop. End of Story.!!

I have the moto360, only thing I do with it is to check time and WhatsApp message.
Another feature that is great for work will be the timer, it reminds me when my presentation is up.

Dixons no matter what you think, if you're not going to stock Apple watch, it'll only be you who are going to loose, no one else.
