Subject: RE: apple watch buy or wait?

If you do end up buying an Apple Watch (iWatch is not a word) then don't make 
the mistake to buy a second generation watch just to save a few bucks. I have 
one because that was what was new when I bought it and I often find it a bit 
annoying because it's a bit slow when it comes to navigating the watch, opening 
apps etc.
I use mine for tracking pool swims, walks and runs and for that it certainly is 
nice and works well.
I know Apple is working with several manufacturers of fitness equipment so that 
data from the eequipment is transferred to the iPhone or Apple Watch, but I 
have never looked into this yet since I prefer outdoor activities myself apart 
from the swimming and the occasional trip to the gym at the pool during the 
winter if I don't get out skiing.
The Apple Watch would definitely tell you your heart rate and things like 
calories burned if you use a stationary bike, but I doubt it would tell you the 
distance, but then again the distance on a stationary bike doesn't really 
matter, it's how long and how hard you work out what matters.

Hi, I have just received an Apple series 3 watch for my birthday. I like it 
very much. Yes you can do a workout on the stationary bike, you just have to go 
into the workout part of the watch and set the workout you can even use Siri to 
set it tell her what kind of workout you want and start and stop stop the work 
out from there.
You if you have any other questions I’ll be more than happy to answer them.

Yes you can set the time I believe you would I would probably use Siri to 
set the time for the amount of times that I want I’ve been just doing it

I think you can buy it now, of course nobody knows what will happen, but 
I
doubt the watch will get a big upgrade if any in the fall and the series 
3

is apparently very good. I bought a series 2 in October of 2016 and while
it’s not bad, I find now after a year and a half it’s a bit slow. I did a
reset and set it up as a new device and that helped a bit, but I must say
I’m definitely not 100% satisfied with how snappy it is and from what I
understand the series 3 is much more responsive which of course can be
expected to a point.

RE: apple watch buy or wait?

2018-04-27 Thread Sieghard Weitzel 
If you do end up buying an Apple Watch (iWatch is not a word) then don't make 
the mistake to buy a second generation watch just to save a few bucks. I have 
one because that was what was new when I bought it and I often find it a bit 
annoying because it's a bit slow when it comes to navigating the watch, opening 
apps etc.
I use mine for tracking pool swims, walks and runs and for that it certainly is 
nice and works well.
I know Apple is working with several manufacturers of fitness equipment so that 
data from the eequipment is transferred to the iPhone or Apple Watch, but I 
have never looked into this yet since I prefer outdoor activities myself apart 
from the swimming and the occasional trip to the gym at the pool during the 
winter if I don't get out skiing.
The Apple Watch would definitely tell you your heart rate and things like 
calories burned if you use a stationary bike, but I doubt it would tell you the 
distance, but then again the distance on a stationary bike doesn't really 
matter, it's how long and how hard you work out what matters.

Hi, I have just received an Apple series 3 watch for my birthday. I like it 
very much. Yes you can do a workout on the stationary bike, you just have to go 
into the workout part of the watch and set the workout you can even use Siri to 
set it tell her what kind of workout you want and start and stop stop the work 
out from there.
You if you have any other questions I’ll be more than happy to answer them.

Re: apple watch buy or wait?

2018-04-27 Thread Arlene 
All this information about the iwatch is very interesting. I was wondering 
if you could use the watch if you were exercising on a stationary bike or 
even a regular kind of bike. Just like the swimming with exercising on a 
bike would it know the  distance you've went and tell about your heart beat, 
just as it would on the display on those bikes. When I would go on the 
exercise bikes in the apartment building I lived in, I wished so much that 
there was a talking chip,  where you could navigate through the menues as 
you could on some of the feature phones or some how that it would work with 
an iphone or even android which I didn't have an iphone at the time about 4 
years ago. While a few of my friends assisted me  in setting the time on the 
bike and reading the distance I went, it would have been neat to have been 
able to have done that myself and seen how much distance I went and so on. 
Probably with something like that with a display on a bike, I would be able 
to scan the display with the app eye-d. It would be interesting to know if 
any of you are using apps with bikes. thank you.

I think you can buy it now, of course nobody knows what will happen, but I 
doubt the watch will get a big upgrade if any in the fall and the series 3 is 
apparently very good. I bought a series 2 in October of 2016 and while it’s not 
bad, I find now after a year and a half it’s a bit slow. I did a reset and set 
it up as a new device and that helped a bit, but I must say I’m definitely not

RE: apple watch buy or wait?

2018-04-16 Thread Sarai Bucciarelli 
I love the SS version, but for that reason I just cannot see spending that kind 
of money for a product that won’t last as long.

Subject: RE: apple watch buy or wait?

 

Given the sluggishness of the series 2 I can only imagine what a series 1 would 
be like. It is interesting how Apple succeeds in getting people to buy what are 
expensive watches every few years. It used to be that one would buy a quality 
watch and have it for many years, even decades or a lifetime. Now Apple has 
taken the watch and made it into just another technology gadget which needs to 
be updated every 3 or 4 years. When I bought mine I bought the stainless steel 
version because I liked the fact that it had a sapphire crystal screen and 
sounded just a bit tougher. I do sometimes wear it in my woodworking shop or 
when I’m out  and about doing stuff and when I had a braille watch I broke the 
lid/crystal on a pretty regular bases. I think next time if I do eventually 
upgrade I’ll buy whatever is the cheapest model given the fact that one can’t 
expect to get 6 or 8 let alone 10 years out of it.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

I think you can buy it now, of course nobody knows what will happen, but I 
doubt the watch will get a big upgrade if any in the fall and the series 3 is 
apparently very good. I bought a series 2 in October of 2016 and while it’s not 
bad, I find now after a year and a half it’s a bit slow. I did a reset and set 
it up as a new device and that helped a bit, but I must say I’m definitely not 
100% satisfied with how snappy it is and from what I understand the series 3 is 
much more responsive which of course can be expected to a point.
