In the last six months I have purchased:
16 inch M1 Max ~4k
Apple Watch Ultra ~800
Air pods pro 2 ~250
13 inch M1 16 GB ~2000
= 7000 dollars.
A huge spend and I don't regret one single purchase. Each subsequent product interfaces extremely well with the ecosystem. I no longer carry my phone with me 80% of the time. I bring my watch and usually have a laptop if needed.
- etrautmann 4y agoDo you text with friends, family, or colleagues, and if so, is it from the laptop? I find my communication hampered without the phone, but like the idea of leaving it away from me more often.
- fdgsdfogijq 4y agoThe texting is actually pretty good from the watch, can use Siri or type into the watch keyboard. Same with phone calls, I use the air pods to connect and its like talking on a regular phone. Apple pay works very well. Get emails, slack messages, etc. Can easily reply to slack messages from the watch. Cant see conversations but Basically everything works that I need. Alot of apps dont work, but thats the point. I dont need those apps all the time.
- tannedNerd 4y agoYeah iMessage has a pretty great tie in with iPhones to the point that they don’t even have to be on the same network to send an sms from your laptop via your phone.
- FredPret 4y agoJust remember to deregister your number if you ever move off of Apple, or else every text from any iPhone to you will disappear into the void
- dkonofalski 4y agoThis used to be true but is not true anymore.

- constantcrying 4y agoThat is more than I have spend on computing hardware in my entire life...
- jollyllama 4y agoInteresting. Does the watch have a cellular connection? I thought it piggybacked off of an iphone.
- FredPret 4y agoNot OP but yes, if you buy the pricier model, it has its own data plan.
- fdgsdfogijq 4y agoYeah the cellular connection is 10 bucks a month. But I can talk on the phone/receive texts like its a phone.
- FredPret 4y agoI won an iPad years ago. It was so much smoother than my Samsung. Fast forward to today, and I’m in a similar situation as you. I keep throwing money at Apple and they almost never disappoint.

- danwee 4y agoDoes the watch work without having an iphone around? I would love to buy an apple watch, but I don't have (nor want) an iphone.
