Google sabotaged the entire WearOS platform, they gave the market to Apple on a silver plate. Lack of updates, not treating it as a first class platform, etc

- Fnoord 3y agoApple? I mean, I don't have an iPhone, so it is pointless to have an Apple Watch, right?
- PlutoIsAPlanet 3y agoNo but I wouldn't be shocked if compatible watches influences people's choice of smartphone, it did for me.
- Fnoord 3y agoWell, an iPhone. How marvelous. I cannot even replace the battery or screen in 5 minutes. I have an Android smartphone which is easy to repair (Fairphone). It is a dealbreaker for me (although I'm glad Apple have been improving lately, and also software support for other Android devices is going better). Therefore, I cannot dabble into the Apple Watch ecosystem either. And you know what, it actually seems like a neat device (sans the repairability). And I am also a happy user of macOS and I know I'd like tvOS just as well as my Nvidia Shield (who forced ads down my throat in an Android update and pointed fingers at Google).
