Apple Watch Accessories

[TheDeviceUser]

So, we should find out about Accessories at the event, if there is anything.

I've been thinking about what they may offer, so here's a list.

- Apple Watch Bands
- Standalone Charger
- Standalone Apple Watch Edition Charger
- Charger Dock (a sort of integrated all in one unit that you can just pop it on?)
- Dual Charger for Watch and iPhone/iPad
- Bluetooth Headset (as suggested by matrix07)

What do you think? Do they seem plausible? Anything else you think might be released with it?

Dual charger/stand for iPhone and the watch will be nice

 

[matrix07]

Bluetooth headphone for sure?

Bluetooth headphone for sure?

Yes, I'll add it to the list and credit you.

 

[Crosspjc]

Dual charger stand for iphone/watch gets my vote.

- case
- screen protector.

Useless, they are headphone with the iPhone.
And the iPad doesn't have headphone.

BT headphones will work with the Watch and Apple already sells them (2 models). So they are already available as an accessory for the Watch.

That does raise a question on whether there will be IOS bundle packs from Apple including iPhone, Watch, extra strap and bluetooth headphones. $1500 all in.

Not likely since bundles tend to cheapen the value perception of the individual products. This is not an Apple like model and can't think of any hardware product bundling packages.

You can bundle when you buy a Mac online. This product is different though as it is a companion device to the iPhone.

- case

The only reason a case on an watch makes sense is to protect it from bumping into stuff / the sides getting scratched and scuffed. But its a watch. So case just wouldn't be real practical. And I defiantly don't see Apple releasinng a case for it.

I wouldn't use a case, or do the following - but I could see some people coating it with clear nail hardener or Krylon protective finish. It goes on practically invisible. It's certainly better and cheaper than some ugly snap-on case. They use it to protect costume jewelry, and all kinds of things, and it's removable.

(I don't mean coat the dang screen, they would be masked off)

I won't put anything on it, as I've said, but I can see others doing this.

But it's too expensive for Sport, no?

Are you talking about Beats?

 

[ebika]

Why would you want to pair bt headphones with the  watch?

Why would you want to pair bt headphones with the  watch?

So you can listen to music from the Watch.

The watch won't hold any music, though. Any music will come from your iPhone, so why wouldn't you pair the headphones to the phone?

Apple Watch can store music without iPhone. Tim Cook said that in an interview with Charlie Rose.

Watch Accessories

Before I have even decided on which watch I am going to purchase, I started looking for aftermarket accessories. I found a few cases or bumpers, charging stations and a couple of bands.

Anyone planning on a case/bumper or other accessory? I'm sure the market will be soon flooded with more ways to spend our money.

I'm sure Louis Vuitton and alike will have their own bands too.

I am planning of sporting the watch naked.

I don't think a case of any kind is necessary... especially when we're paying a premium for the designs of the Stainless Steel and Edition watches.
