First day without the watch and I miss it, a time piece on my wrist. Now I’ll tell you why I gave up on it as I was very happy with it but mine had this flaw and I don’t know if anyone had it. Please note wrist to raise with voice over was off. So think about this. You do your normal duties be it round the house, at work or out and about. Then suddenly this watch would start talking as if you had pressed it. Not just that, it would go in and out of apps as if you were touching it. I had to tap it ten or 20 times to lock it before it stopped. Some times when it was raining and my sleeve got wet and it would start talking, talking and talking! So I’d have to power it off. You don’t know how much it got on my nerves, I wanted to throw it somewhere for it to stop! I thought the new update would sort it as I had reset it loads. New update didn’t stop it. You would have said call Apple but Apple would have said for me to reset and then I’d have to take a day off work just to sit at home to wait for a courier and I couldn’t do it at this time as my annual leave has almost expired! So yesterday morning after another period of this watch doing its moving in to apps back and forth in and out, I got to the point, I would not tolerate this watch anymore. So you see what a time I had with it. Also, after the new update, when my work out ended, it would continue to count and count down and I had to power it off. Then another day it would crash for a whole day and when it finally come back on, there would be no power left it died until it was charged! So there is my story. So now I wait for the next one and this time I’ll not get the sports as I am wondering because it was sports it did this thing that got on my nerves! How I miss my time piece though. Kawal.

I'd love to hear what you (the OP) disliked; all the better to make as informed a choice as I can when we see what the updated hardware has.

I absolutely love mine, and don’t notice any accessibility concerns at all. Now do I wish the hardware could’ve been a little faster? Yes, but for a first-generation product that’s had 2 major updates since it’s launch, it’s quite remarkable.
