I've had a Tonal for about a month and it's a super impressive product in many ways. From someone who love great product design: - Very well-designed, distraction-free, non-buggy, snappy UI - For being a 1st gen product it seems SO well put-together, everything feels very solid- especially considering what kind of weight and force is being applied at times. - For being early on in the software lifecycle it already has Apple Watch heart rate integration via a Tonal Watch app as well as allows you to turn the weight on/off via the watch Which brings me to what I think really sets Tonal apart.. I was a very early iPhone adopter and I vividly remember showing people the phone and what really got them hooked/interested was: pinch-to-zoom and the "rubber-banding" inertial scrolling. Both interactions of which demonstrated beautifully what a no-physical button, multi-touch slab of glass could do that nothing before it came close to... and most importantly, it felt a little like magic. With Tonal it is a very weird feeling to "turn on" the weight. It's like you hit a button (built into the handles/bar/screen or your watch) and boom it's full-force to whatever weight you set with zero sound/noise.. it's very impressive. I thought maybe this was just something that struck me but I've had numerous friends who are much more experienced with weight lifting try it out and they are so surprised and impressed. Not trying to sell people on Tonal just saying that after seeing people's reactions to it I can totally see it being a viral type product that sells high-price to early adopters then lowers entry-level price as economies of scale allow it (then introduces new subscriptions, accessories, upgrades, better models to keep high margins for customers who can afford it).
