How do you feel about your purchase a year later? Do you care about the newer gesture controls not being available to you?

No one in their right mind should be upgrading their $800 watch for at least 3-4 years…

At least my perspective as a AWU1 owner, if it can’t last 4 years and maintain It’s longevity for that long it’s not worth it ¯\(ツ)/¯

My health insurance company pays for mine 🤷‍♂️ annnnnnd 800 isn’t a lot of money to some people. I’m not one of those people, but I definitely know some lol

Are they the same ones that plan on working till they die to keep up with their shiny gadget collection?

Not sure that’s the only continuum that exists lol

True for Apple Watch as there isn’t much added in upgraded versions.

But for iPhones, I’m tempted to upgrade at least once every two years. 😛 Mostly because of the good trade-in value.
