I never said iWatch will be better than what's currently out there, just said there's a market for something decent regardless of manufacturer. The recent images of the 'concept' google watch look really nice for example. | |

Not going to argue in that all the hardware of the iWatch will be put in a decent designed case and, if the rumour are true, the curved screen will be pretty 'cool' but i can happily tell you, in terms of functionality, the iWatch won't be dissimilar to what is already on the market due to hardware limitations eg - in screen size (ie: it'll be similar to a Nano G6), processing and battery power and the use of an extremely cut down version of iOS (source of their current battery consumption problems; 1 day isn't reasonable!!). Why do you believe the iWatch will be better than smart app-based watches that already exist on the market? | |

You didn't the Samsung comment was unrelated to your post, more of an obsevation as to what will likely happen based on past experience. | |

quote: When did i mentioned Samsung? :boggle: And the Xperia doesn't 'just tells the time', just like the Pebble doesn't 'just tells the time' - both are capable of running standalone 'apps'. The iWatch is going to be nothing different, how can it be? And a days battery usage would be horrendous. Xperia Smartwatch is 4 days and the pebble is between 5-7 days; the iWatch would have to at least match that. | |

Yeah I doubt they'll bring one out that just tells the time. :P | |

All the current implementations of a 'smart' watch are terrible so there's a real market for a decent one. | |
