2019-11-25 Thread Sarah Massengale
Thanks so much.  these are a lot of good thoughts to consider.  Could you give 
me a rough estimate of how long the series 3 battery lasts.

Re: Apple watch series three Vs. five

2019-11-25 Thread maurice.mines
 Hello, I have had a series 3 and I currently have a series 5. The 
differences are days if you have a lot of outs I wouldn’t recommend 
the series 3 because it only shows not quite 12 give space. Also if 
you’re like me I am blind is well as I have a significant hearing 
loss. The speaker on the five is much better. The reason why I upgraded 
from series 3 to series 5 is that when my Series III began to falter 
after the store and I got the device straightened out and functioning 
properly we suddenly noticed that the battery has some serious 
functionality issues in other words the battery drain was significant 
enough that I thought that it would be better to just upgrade.


Let’s talk about that battery for a moment. For once the advertising 
hype is actually correct the series 5 Billy does have a 17 hour battery. 
So for me it’s a winner. In fact it is such a winter that most of the 
time if I’m doing something that I know that the phone would be a 
hindrance I just make certain I have my watch on. For the sake of 
clarity I have the cellular model. Because I do sometimes actually get 
voice calls but most of the time I use my series 5 for texting. And when 
doing a test I held the watch close to my hearing aid in an extremely 
noisy environment. And was still able to hear the watch. Just my 
thoughts on this one. And also for the record I am totally blind. I hope 
I comments here are helpful.

I don’t think Apple is selling it anymore you can still find it on Amazon or 
other places but Apple isn’t selling it because the forth gen and fifth gen 
pretty much have the same internals

2019-11-25 Thread Sarah Massengale
So, a question about that, Joseph.  I’m not seeing the four on Apple’s website, 
and the sales team says it’s no longer available.  Is it still available in 
stores?  I ask because I do want to buy direct from Apple, as I’ll be using a 
gift card to do it.

Thanks,
Sarah

Apple watch series three Vs. five

2019-11-25 Thread Sarah Massengale
Hey folks, and happy thanksgiving week to those who celebrate.  I’m looking at 
buying my first Apple watch this year, and I’m feeling a little intimidated 
about deciding between the three and five.  I’m totally blind, so obviously 
none of the five’s snappy display related things matter a bit to me.  That 
said, are there any other accessibility differences I should know about in the 
3 Vs. 5?

Thanks,
Sarah
