sa11oum, 13 Sep 2023This narrative is really getting old. Let's please be ... moreLet's also be realistic that more than 90% of tech users are don't understand what's the specification of their tech and how they tech work, and most of them will choose between Apple and Samsung "because it's a more known brand". And there's something called "brand loyalty" because people will keep buying a same brand due to their own reason, like they're live in US and they're forced to use iMessage because most of their friends use iMessage so like it or not they should buy an iPhone or getting mocked because they just ruined the group chat, or because if you want to keep looking cool, you should keep buy an iPhone.
I never said Apple made a bad products, so you're the one that stop being delusional. In fact, only the rest 10% people like both of us who really understands tech whou bought an iPhone for some "real reason and not just some kind of status in social". Do you think why does celebrity or bussinessman buy an iPhone? Do you think most of them understand what they use? You might try to hide the fact and try to acted like some kind of social things like this is not (longer) existed, but sadly it existed.
And one more thing, no. They changed their iPhone not because they need it, that's because they WANT it. They're typical the richest person in the universe (hope you know that this is some kind of sarcasm) that gonna say "I am rich I have much money I can spend my money on whatever I want".

Let's please be realistic and realize that people are not crazy to buy the same thing over and over and over and over again just because of the brand. Apple makes fantastic products, stop being delusional. You may not like them and that's fine, but enough of this.

              I really wish that this would explain the changes made in the heart rate sensor. I have a Series 6. And the heart rate sensor is a feature, that I might upgrade for. I didn't even know that the Series 8 had an improvement. Was that just via the WatchOS? Or a sensor change.

                  justasmile, 10 Sep 2023With marginal changes on every gen as usual...Why would they change much when they already obliterate the competition? Nothing comes close to Apple Watch in wearables. Just like Samsung foldables are the best, they barely upgrade them. Same thing.

                      Let's see if this thing isn't e-waste this time. I find the two days I get out of my Galaxy Watch5 44mm acceptable, but the current Apple Watch often seems to not even get through a full day with sleep analysis, which to me is such a bad joke. They have to do something to improve that.

                        AnonD-1044551, 10 Sep 2023That's what you think lol. Do you have any different idea?

                          I'll hold that "efficiency" thing they saying, hoping that this could be start of more than 3 days battery life for smartwatch and pressure Google powered watch as well.
