I don't know about anyone else, but my thinking is either I buy it pre-order and get it as early as anyone gets it, or I don't think about it until it 'ships within 24 hours' (or I can walk into the store and buy one). Therefore, I would completely expect there to be low demand right now. At least if other people behave like I do.
I didn't pre-order the Apple Watch because a watch (which I haven't worn regularly in decades), doesn't carry nearly the impact (that I can see yet) of a new touch phone that solves huge frustrations with existing phones, or a tablet the finally fulfills the promise of digital books and magazines from the 90s.
Perhaps it's missing the killer app that would help me 'get it'. I guess that means I need to workout more?
- jonathansizz 11y agoAs an enthusiastic Moto 360 owner, I'd just like to tell you that you have no chance of 'getting' any smartwatch without giving it a thorough testing. Try one. Maybe you still won't find it worthwhile, or maybe you will.
- Terretta 11y agoYep, if you were the kind who buys before you can have it, you probably bought day one. Social sites like are didn't show people watching the projected ship times and waiting to order till they feel like they know when they'll get it. That's not yet.
- threeseed 11y agoI goto the gym every day for an hour. The Apple Watch is a fantastic workout tracker. And it's great that it's reminding me to stand every hour. But what is the point of the data it collects ? Apple isn't doing anything smart with it (yet). The workout tracker is not the killer app. And neither is everything out there right now.
