    Bluetooth Headphone Question - WatchOS 4

    Can you pair the Apple Watch with Bluetooth headphones? If I want to go for a bike ride without my phone, do I have to sync the headphone with the watch, and then re sync the headphones with my iPhone after?

    Phone use after watch purchase?

    Am curious about how much you use your phone (in your hand) after purchasing an Apple Watch. Currently have a 6 and am going to buy my first watch (3, GPS) and need to upgrade my phone but am on the fence with current offerings. Do you still pull out the phone and use it as much as you did...

    Amazon availability?

    Hi there! So, I have a good amount of gift card money in Amazon and was hoping to use it to buy an Apple Watch, either a Series 2 (at what I hope will be a reduced price), or the non-LTE Series 3. I was wondering if anyone here had a sense, from previous Apple product launches, of the timeline...

    Apple Watch as the ONLY phone

    I don't currently own an Apple Watch at this time, but... I don't use my phone for much more than making calls, texting, and occasionally streaming music or playing stored music, light browsing, and occasionally GPS. I do this because my phone is comparatively ancient... the iPhone 4. Given...

    Verizon NumberShare - Multiple Apple Watches

    So this is an interesting piece of info regarding Verizon's NumberShare. I would assume it is similar across carriers. Evidently, you're allowed to share your number with up to 5 devices. I wonder if this would allow you to attach multiple S3+LTE watches. For those who want multiple S3's and...

    Fate of Series 1/Series 2

    Pure speculation of course but what do you guys think about the future of S1/S2 as far as what will be kept as the “entry level” watch? Currently the S1 resides in a great price bracket but will Apple kill it and drop the price of S2 to match, or will it kill S2 and keep S1 as it is or possibly...

    How to keep using your S0 Watch without updating

    I have a S0 SS still running 2.2.1 - I was wanting to keep it at 2.2.1 for collectible/nostalgic reasons - the OS will change over time and later on it would be cool to see the original watch running early software. (For example, the side button no longer brings up the circular list of contacts)...
