The Apple Watch is the new iPod Nano (with additional functionality)
- rahoulb 9y agoI love my Apple Watch but I don't get the same sense of wonder and amazement that I did from my 3rd generation iPod (wedding present). And neither does anyone that I show it to (people were blown away when I scrolled through the songs I had on that iPod).
- mstade 9y agoWith a very important caveat: it takes FOREVER to sync not-very-many songs with the watch. This isn't a problem if you're bringing your phone as well, but if you're going for run and don't want to or can't bring your phone, you either have to plan ahead or stick with the same ol' songs every single time you're out and about. To be fair, I tend to stick with the same songs anyway, it makes it easy for me to always know how I'm doing with regards to my run, without having to look at the watch or wait for a mile / km update to come along, since I know when in the playlist I should be when reaching certain parts of my track. (Provided I run the same track, that is, but usually I do.)
- twoodfin 9y agoStreaming on the LTE Series 3 solves this problem. Haven’t checked but assume it works with iTunes Match for whatever obscurities you have.
- mstade 9y agoUnfortunately, LTE for Series 3 isn't available everywhere and specifically it's not available in my country. From what I hear, it probably won't happen anytime soon either, if ever. :o(
- WWLink 9y agoHaving a series 0 apple watch myself, part of the reason I stopped using it was how big a pain in the butt it is when you need to do anything with it. X_X Especially if you do a major enough update on your phone that the watch needs to be re-paired.
