Just wondering if anyone has 1 yet? And if so, your opinions on it, good or bad?

3 hour battery life, and you have to have a iphone for some functions to work.

Its really for the apple brainwashed gang. The same crowd that sport their Dr Dre beats headphones around their necks all smug as they paid £100+ for them, yet the rest of the world know how much they cost to make and think " haha, brand tosser"

It's not for me, my daughter is banging on about spending her birthday money on 1, I'm trying to talk her out of it as I'm not convinced about them tbh.
Yes my money is staying firmly in my pockets waiting for the right car to turn up.

I don't quite get it, we all carry a smartphone around these days that can do the same stuff, why do we need it on our arm?

Also, they're going to be worthless in a few years as Apple will release new versions annually I expect. What's an iPhone 3GS worth these days?

If you buy a proper watch, it'll hold its value much better

Yeah I know your right Steve, it's just trying to reason with a 15yo and convince her to spend her money on something better and cheaper. There will most certainly be an S or Air version in 6 months

Matt, tell her all your middle aged mates have got them and think they're 'well cool'. She won't want one after that!
