dont like the black area at the bottom of the moto360

i like the fact i can buy a 'regular' band for my LG G watch to update the look to something more attractive. it sounds like aftermarket bands exist for apple watch but did they make the band connection proprietary as well to force you to buy apple metal???

that is the ultimate frick you to their users; selling a metal band for a watch for an additional $100.

i personally like the new LG watch that removes that black area the 360 has at the base.

It's not about laziness, it's about convenience. It's about freeing your hands, eyes, and mind in favor of doing other things. It's about taking back some of the time that our phones took away from us. If it saves you 10 seconds a dozen times a day, that's 2 minutes. Or 12 hours a year. What's your time worth?

Pretty sure I do. But just like most sheep, you can't see you're the ones that are really in the Window's herd. The numbers don't lie.

Windows isn't even in the conversation here dumbass. Google, Samsung etc. You not understanding your own confusion is hilarious.

That's cool, android wear is for you, but we are taking about the apple watch here. The apple watch is not round, it is square, but is way more expensive and has one of the crappiest batteries on the market... so I show the exact opposite of the apple watch. A third party watch that is square and has an ungodly battery life.

ETA: and is actually priced in a normal person's price range

I've been trying to be as detached from the watch as possible and look at it both from a novelty point of view and from usability.

I'd like to say I wouldn't rush out and buy another one if it broke but honestly it's become something I have become increasingly dependent on.

The smart watch nudge is the new Nokia ringtone.

There are at-least that many people who think everything apple puts out immediately turns to gold. (actually some of them are actual gold )

No. The confusion is yours. The irony is probably 95% of the "Apple fans are Sheep" crowd are Windows users. They accuse fanbois of being sheep when they're part of the biggest heard of sheep in the world and too myopic to even realize it. And now derivatively a bunch of Fandroid sheep too thinking they're cool hip and superior crowd cause they are all stick up Android's arse.



That's like a large herd of sheep laughing at a smaller one that goes another direction and saying look at the Sheep all sticking together.

Then the large herd laughs in unison. And the small herd says WTF is with these dumb asses?

Apple users are the ones that don't follow the crowd. They broke from the Windows Vista and Windows 8 herd mentality crowd that sticks with Microsoft no matter how much crap it inflicts on them. Naturally once they're in the Apple Eco system they tend to favor Apple products. Why wouldn't they?

Apple doesn't subject its customers to shite like Windows 8 and Vista, or having to wait to update their Fandroid phone to latest software for months, much less wipe all the crapware off of it just to make it useable.

So before you toss the sheep metaphors and analogies out so loosely, best look at the dumbass in the mirror first.

So, are they windows users or android?

This is a watch thread. Do I really need to explain this to you?

I think you have some kind of disability and you're not telling us. That's really shitty.

Sorry you can't follow along why OSX users are the ones that broke from the massive Windows Sheep herd in the first place & why they're not sheep for being more inclined to stick with Apple products.

But then again, I'd expect no less.
