Do you plan on ordering the new Apple Watch Series 7 (2021) this September?

That's weird. Maybe you're not used to wearing the heavier SS. I've been using SS since S3 so I'm used to the weight and feedback. Definitely shouldn't be any weaker than AL though.

It’s not actually weaker, per se. it’s just that it takes more force to distribute the vibration through a denser material with more mass. If you hit something with greater mass (more condensed molecules), the energy doesn’t reverberate/pass through it as strongly as something with less density. The increased mass dampens the vibration/energy. It’s just physics. No way to get around it.

Titanium will transfer the energy of haptics more because it is about half as dense as steel. Aluminum has even less mass and therefore transfers energy the most (I.e., the haptics are felt strongest).
 
@Boardiesboi might buy a lotto ticket lol.

Very well said!!! Talk about science and periodic table elements.👏

Enough with this weird American pricing, giving me a headache. 😂

This is what petrol prices look like in Australia. 🤔😂

Wow I thought you guys had it as bad as us Canadians when it comes to gas but I guess not.

We have 87/89/91. So your regular is our premium. Premium 91 goes for $1.75 cad/ $1.90 aud per litre here lol. I’ll kill for $1 cad per litre for 91 Octane 🤣

So basically because it’s made out of science.

Congrats! So ditching your mates was worth it!

So do you reckon AusPost has sorted out their backlogs and it's delivery to Apple estimates again?

Photos and comparison with Baltic blue please.
Thanks mate. 🙏

Honestly who knows with aus post. 🤦‍♂️😂

Photos will be on time today, since I’ve had my breakfast already lol.👇😋🤤

If it makes you feel any better, mine was supposed to be here on launch day, but got pushed to the 27-29th a day before launch. I just got it today, so you will probably get yours sooner than the date given.
That’s really frustrating! Glad you got it earlier than they said, but that still sucks that you didn’t get it at launch!
