Apple Watch Series 3: Why I Kept It

2018-02-08
so it's been four months since the Apple watch series three hit and it's either been this on my wrist or my second-gen mode 360 depending on what phone I'm testing and it's been two months since I last really filmed my thoughts on it I started using it a lot more and my use case has changed in the past two months I started working out a lot more to talk a lot about it from that perspective and also software updates have come so LTE and the uses of LTE are now a little bit more than they were even just eight weeks ago so if you're thinking about getting an Apple watch Series three or maybe you're debating I'm not returning yours or selling yours stick around so I'm like general thoughts on smartwatches is still the same I am like a ball of conflicted emotions about it and I feel like a hypocrite on what hands I can't articulate the use of a SmartWatch even I can't even say why somebody needs a SmartWatch the other games when I'm not wearing one I really missed our vacations and you know things like knowing who's calling have been very helpful to have so it seriously you can tell it's a series three at least with LTE buy the red dot on and that LT is a big difference versus the series - the price entry here is high at 400 bucks before your cellular plan to get an LTE model they're getting a lot of watch for your dollar so the good battery life has still been incredible I can easily get through now almost four to five days on battery life when I travel I'm not gone for a week on every map and watch charger with me the caveat there is if you're using LTE my life is going to drain relatively fast two months ago when I made an hour-long phone call only LTE it went from 1% to zero so now there's been a few iterative software updates that have come and that one hour that extended to about an hour and 20 minutes which is a big percentage-wise increase so I'm gonna be honest I don't use apps on a SmartWatch I think they are clunky I still think they load slow even though now they're kind of native on the watch and they're credibly and useful especially just to pull out my phone and open the app but they're there there if apps are important to generally my app usage is limited to checking sports scores and generally I just ask Siri what the score is and she'll now talks back to you it's still slow it's not nearly as fast as asking phone so oftentimes I'm just asking my phone to do stuff and that's really the case with the Apple watch so I've been trying to get this this tub of fun into shape which is kind of what made me think to do a four month later video at the Apple watch I've been using it as my workout companion it's kind of interesting so first after being relatively sedentary for like pretty much at rest the time I used to watch my first real heavy cardio the watch asked me if I was okay I thought I was having a heart attack which like which hurt me and also served as motivation but it's been useful to have you sort of track how many calories I burned how long I've been running if I'm staying at home doing like a Beachbody workout which is which is what I'm trying to do don't laugh it's been helpful to see how long I've been going for how much I've moved it's also really motive good motivations try to close the rings so I've used an Apple watch it's what they use to measure your movement your standing and your exercise so being able to try to close those has been helpless but also been helpful for me to measure my heart rate and we give you a range of what your heart rate was at the lowest and the highest what I buy the Apple watch series here again yeah probably I would probably feel like a jerk for doing it but again I still like having that SmartWatch on my wrist it is by no means a must-have by no means a must-have companion even for an iPhone it's nice you can stream Apple music now via LTE all those things are there but there's not a compelling reason why you should buy it but a lot of you guys are so if you're buying an Apple watch what's your reason why you did it and I think most importantly to that question I'm actually using it for that reason I told myself I was gonna work out a lot when I first bought it and it took me four months to actually start doing it maybe I'm alone even the comments down below and let me know works give the video a thumbs up we appreciate it hit subscribe button that little bell notification experts let you know we got new videos coming up we got a ton of awesome vs. videos coming your way until next time I'm John render TechnoBuffalo
