First impressions of 2nd gen series 1 Apple watch
Hi all, Just thought I'd share my first impressions, in case anyone out there is considering this purchase. First, I'm extremely happy with this upgrade, and highly recommend it. Below is what I've observed so far. The watch is definitely more responsive. No more waiting around for the watch to respond to a tap or other gesture. Apps also open much more quickly. I have found what David and others have said to be true re the battery. I get up at 6:15, and when I checked battery status at 9:30, the percentage level was 10-13% higher than it typically was with the first gen watch. I don't know if this is my imagination, but I think the speaker is noticeably better. Speech and sounds seem both louder and clearer. Finally, for those who use the watch for exercise, I'm getting a higher calorie count for my elliptical work-outs. I can't imagine why this would be, but it is true. Perhaps the faster processor is also more accurate? Whatever the reason, I like the new numbers! :) So, that's what I've got so far. In my opinion, for $270, it's absolutely worth upgrading.
