I don't agree with you. I think the complaint is completely legitimate, and it's the main reason I want to wait a year or two before taking the plunge with smartwatches.
I think the Apple Watch is really cool and I want one. But I'm very much like the author. I hate being ostentatious and I don't want to wear something that will be very noticeable.
The author was still willing to risk it in order to give it a try. There's nothing wrong with that.
(Also, for me the usually-off screen is sort of a dealbreaker, because it really harms the aesthetics of the watch when the screen is off.)
- schrodinger 11y agoFWIW, I've got the Apple Watch Sport in black, and I haven't been getting significant attention. I think in black, it doesn't really stand out that much. I live in NYC
- xauronx 11y agoAgreed. I just used it to pay for my lunch at Panera today and it was the biggest response I've gotten so far, with an outrageous, over the top.... "heh, that's neat" as she grabbed my cup and continued with her day.
- wffurr 11y agoAndroid Wear has an option to have an always-on watch face. When I wore one of the nicer looking ones with that turned on, nobody even noticed it wasn't a real watch until I did something wacky like scroll on it or talk to it.
