    Really dumb question about Apple Watch

    Hi guys, Hope you’re well and you’ll forgive this stupid question. So I’m lucky enough to shorly inherit an Apple Watch Series 2 GPS for next to nothing, but I’ve never followed the product so I’m not... gee, how to put this without looking like a doughnut. I’m not really sure what it does...

    Anybody lining up? Overnight? Few hours early? Location? Model?

    I got my dads watch but I missed out on mine and really want it. My gf lives near the mall. I am thinking about lining up at 4-5 at the Sherman oaks galleria. I want the stainless steel 44mm white or Milanese if I have to. Anyone else doing this ? I was hoping Best Buy might get some but I doubt it.

    Difference Between Nike Watch and Regular Aluminum? [MERGED]

    What's the difference between the regular aluminum watch and the Nike watch? Just the faces? Is the Nike stuff in addition to everything the regular watch comes with, or do you only get certain features with each one? I'm 100% getting a new one for Christmas as my original is getting quite old...

    Apple Watch & Heart Rate Chest Strap

    I find that my Apple Watch S3 does a great job at displaying my heart rate during activities such as running and cycling but less so with HIIT and strength training. I am wondering whether I might get better results with the latter two if I paired a heart rate strap with my Apple Watch. Does...

    Cheap and Nasty Wireless Charging Pads (Any Tips?)

    I just bought my first device with wireless charging capabilities (AW4 & iPhone XS Max). I charge my phone at work, my home office, my bed side table and lounge room. I am a stickler for high-quality products but as this is my first wireless charging product and still relatively new technology...

    Apple should make a Apple Watch upgrade program

    Apple should make an Apple Watch Upgrade Program. The Apple Watch is getting more expensive every year. Last year the watch went up $50 and this year the price went another $100(I’m basing the price of a SS Apple Watch) i think the aluminum went up $70 this year. Another thing this watches don’t...

    Apple watch shatter and scratch

    Hello All, I would like to tell you a sad story. I bought my Apple Watch series 3 aluminum 3 months ago, and I went for a swim with it and shattered/scratched the screen accidentally...that's all. I could use some advice from you guys because I didn’t really found any helpful solutions...

    Realistically, how many years can I expect to get out of a S4?

    I see lots of folks upgrading from an S0. That's a solid 4 years of use. Batteries, cases, screens, speed... how did it all hold up? From what I understand, resale tanks after the next series is announced, so you either keep them for 1 year or you're in it for the long haul. If that's the case...

    Apple Watch Series 1 Resale Value?

    I currently have a 42mm space gray Series 1 Apple Watch. I desperately want a series 4 but I want to sell mine on eBay first. How much do you think I could get for it. It’s fully functional except for the rubber gasket in the crown came out so it might not be water proof anymore. Also the screen...

    Series 4 Tracking/Shipping/Dispatch Thread

    Hello all! Excited to get this ball rolling. Part of the fun of pre-ordering is waiting for new order statuses... and of course, monitoring shipments before Apple even provides a tracking number. I got a 44mm, Gold SS with the Stone Sport Band. My status is "Preparing to Ship," but I haven't...

    AT&T - Apple Watch Series 4 Preorders

    I figured it would easier to manage if we have carrier specific threads for those of us who chose to preorder through our providers. This is my second preorder for the Apple Watch. My first one was for the S0 42mm SS, which I got directly from Apple. I have to get the GPS + Cellular combo, since...

    Transferring Outcast podcasts to Apple Watch

    I understand that I can now download Outcast (podcast player) to both my iPhone and my Apple Watch and then transfer podcast episodes over to my watch. I have Outcast showing up on my iPhone and also on my watch. When I download episodes on my phone, that episode shows up on my phone's Outcast...

    Any girls wearing the space grey aluminum  watch?

    Just curious if many girls wear the space grey aluminum Apple Watch! I just ordered a S4 space grey aluminum since I’m not a fan of the silver or gold options (and they no longer make the Rose gold i currently have!)

    Best Buy Pre Order for Series 4 Apple Watch?

    Has anyone else pre-ordered a Series 4 Apple Watch through Best Buy? I had a large Best Buy gift card, so I felt compelled to shop there. I placed the purchase late Friday afternoon (9/14), and the confirmation states will ship/receive by Sept 21st. Too good to be true? I believe I have heard...

    Apple Watch Series 4 availability on Amazon

    My wife and I recently married and have a Amazon gift card balance we'd like to use to purchase two new Apple Watch Series 4s. However, we're not sure how long it'll take for Apple to begin selling them on Amazon and if we'll be able to wait that long. We see that Apple sells products on Amazon...

    Cellular S4 customers getting screwed

    by Apple and by their cellular carriers. First, Apple is charging $100 more for the exact same watch plus a cellular modem (which probably costs $2). For the S3 release, original pricing for the cellular model was $70 more than GPS alone BUT the cellular model also came with more storage (16 GB...

    Series 4 orders (UK)

    Figured I'd start this for those of us across the pond: 44mm Stainless Steel, White Sport Band, ordered by 8:08, delivery 1-8th of October. I had to use the website and couldn't use Pay (long story), and it got confused about in-store pickup options. Was telling me October 1st or later by the...

    US Cellular Series 4 in the UK?

    Hi all, I'm looking to pick up an S4 in the US in a couple of weeks. Does anyone know if the cellular capabilities will work if I activate it on EE in the UK? AFAIK, the S3 cellular doesn't work across countries, just curious if anyone knows if this is still the case. Thanks!
