You probably already calculate out that watchOS 3 is a Brobdingnagian rising slope for the Apple Watch . But did you have sex that it ’s a suction - to - rockin ’ upgrade ?

Writing forGizmodo , Alex Cranz declares that“The Apple Watch No Longer Totally soak up . ”(Tip o ’ the antlers to@designheretic . )

Well , that ’s a relief . Because , human beings , it sure enough has sucked wearing this sucky Apple Watch for a year and a half and getting all this sucky utility out of it .

To show its new unsuckiness , Cranz bring home the bacon a picture of her Apple Watch strapped to a bicycle tire . Really . Which prompt the Macalope to think that maybe the reason she ’s establish it so sucky is that she ’s been using it incorrect .

The original Apple Watch was n’t amazing , but it did what it limit out to do .

Totally blow .

The first Apple Watch ( now called Series 1 ) was more a whiff than a abode rill .

A whiff that ’s have the smartwatch market and taken a giant share of the tax income from the watch food market as a whole . The Macalope ’s not going to say it was sodding , but it ’s at least a self-coloured dual .

… Apple miscalculated when it project the original Watch as a fashion item .

Yes and no . Certainly nobody wanted to pay for the Watch Edition , which no one thought was going to sell in volume anyway . But think about how many take in bands Apple and third parties have sold before you pass judgement on the Watch ’s wallop as a fashion item .

… despite the number of pricey bands available , it ’s still pretty square .

It ’s square ! Andfashion watchesarenever square .

Swatch sentinel are moldable but the Macalope does n’t opine anyone would deny they ’re a mode accessory . Cranz later talks about how salutary some of the bands look but , hey , you dumbfound ta get your chinchy shots in while you’re able to .

Forget it , Macalope . It’sGizmodotown .

But perhaps the biggest rationality is that no one particularly wants a smartwatch .

Apple is estimated to have sell 12 million Watches in 2015 alone but “ no one want a smartwatch ” .

The original Apple Watch previously just brand you as a instrument with a decent credit line and a passion for notifications .

Is there anything unspoilt than someone who writes about technology who mocks multitude who like technology ? ! Yes , everything is good .

Yes , not as many peopleneeda smartwatch as peopleneeda smartphone , but how many peopleneeda gaming console or a GoPro or a drone pipe ? Crazy uncle Larry will tell you he necessitate the monotone because the government is using birds to spot on him , but that ’s just part of his psychosis .

The government is actually using ants with lilliputian cameras to descry on him . And Larry ca n’t even see it .

I sway a metallic element striation on my Series 1 …

If you had an Apple Watch prior to last month you were a tool but now you sway .

Boy , engineering is hard to keep up on . We ’re so lucky we have multitude who can tell us when we ’re tool and when we ’re rockin ’ .
