Best review I have seen on the Apple Watch. Thanks for the hard work. I work in a Las Vegas Casino and a lot of employees are using smart watches now. It's because of the policy's of the Casinos not allowing you to use your phone will working. People can stay connected will working. I see cocktail waitresses walking around using there phones will serving drinks. I think smart Watches in general are going to not replace the phone but help people stay connected will they work.

Oh man Dave, this is the video that made me sub. It’s been so long!

Great review! generally I love the idea of smart watches but I think I'm waiting for smart watches to be more useful as a stand alone wearable gadget. It would be awesome if apple made a sim slot in the watch so it could be taken out without an iPhone and substitute as the main phone for the day. Thats just my view.

Ive had the Apple watch sport for 3 month now and Cant live without my watch, Its awesome . Favourite app .... Golf GPS Pro . The fitness app is addictive, have to close all three rings before end of day, For those of you wanting to get fit or lose weight, this alone is worth the $350 . Dont listen to the Trolls or the jealous, or even those that criticise the watch even though they themselves couldn't even build a tray in woodwork, This is a phenomenal P.s Good review Dave, but next time, do a review with an Actual Apple watch .

This is probably one of the best reviews online for the watch. And what I mean is that you have great real life points. Other famous and huge YouTube channels just give the same cookie cutter info that is printed on the "pamphlet". So to speak.

However I felt like your review was honest and true vs just stating the obvious. Thanks for that! Keep up the good work, u earned urself a subscriber! Lol

[HailSagan]

Hands down best reviewer on youtube. You're so clear and concise while packing tons of useful info and examples. While it's one of the coolest new technologies, Apple really needs to hear these thoughts to make this watch more appealing to regular consumers. Great feedback, you have earned a sub. :)

Best review I've seen so far, good work!

[prasanjitmukherjee]

Good reviews better than told, Austin Evans, MBKHD, unbox therapy, uraverage whatever it is and also Linus tech tips. Your reviews are so relaxing. Your reviews are worth above 4m subscribers.

That was incredibly useful, funny and well-made review overall!!! Haha, thanks for this and if you could, start using fade ins and outs between your audio clips! The suddenly cuts annoys me xD

i got my apple watch!! i got on the 24th of April at 3:30 pm in NSW Australia, after i paired it to my phone i received an email saying i was one of the first people in the world to get one. I wanted to clarify on that, if you have an apple watch, when did you get yours??

i found after almost a week of use that i constantly use it as a watch but the sketch, tap, and heartbeat that you can send to other watch owners is my favourite feature. i love how you can customize your watch face although i think it would be better to have full control and be able to customize anything for it. i think the home screen set is neat and easy to use and the digital crown works well and effeciently. I cant wait to learn more about the watch as days pass.

Also im positive everyone that gets one will find it both easy to use, and attractive. Weldone Apple for creating this device, very impressed!

[extremeloco]

Wow man, you are in-depth, insightful, unbiased and entertaining! Great

[rekt_n_line]

Why were you pouring cheerios into a pot?

[briankirk]

Awesome observations! Imma Apple lover/consumer that pays attention to certain unspoken features of Apple products. ALL THOSE HOURS HAVE PAYED OFF!!! I'm ecstatic to see more from YOUR CHANNEL covering our favorite new watch!

[savfam]

Very good production and presentation, but I disagree with you in terms of the usefulness of the device. First, in terms of notifications, I believe that this is the best use for the device initially. A lot of people have jobs where they can't have their phones out in the office, but they have their watches. The watch allows you to view texts, phone calls, reminders and personal emails without taking out your phone.

Secondly, a lot of people don't sleep with their watch on. So charging nightly isn't a big deal. It takes a split second to connect the watch to the charger. It also only takes around 2 hours to fully charge the device.

Third, maybe I missed it, but the use of apple pay with the watch differentiates it from it Pebble and Android competitors. Not only can you leave your wallet in your pocket, but also your phone when in Home Depot, Panera, Winn Dixie, or Starbucks.

In closing, comparing the Apple Watch to the Moto 360, is like comparing a Nissan Maxima to a BMW 550. You can generally do the same things, but the experience isn't as refined or high end.

Wow Dave, just watched the hole video through and your video is amazing. Keep up the amazing job with the information and great shots. I am really really impressed with it. Is looks as if this is an episode of many series to come. Great job and keep up the great job. And I thought I have seen most of the amazing&great tech reviewers. You are well underappreciated and I would love if you keep up this amazing job!

"I'm eating 2 bananas at the same time".. LOL! :) Subbed!

[moochincrawdad]

The most informative and unbiased review I've ever come across on the Apple Watch subject to date - very well done!

[madmisskelly]

Something I think this is good for, is when it isn't practical to have your phone out. At work, we technically aren't allowed to have our phones out, and sometimes its nice to be able to check my notifications without getting side tracked on social media

[TheJoshNguyen]

Excellent video. Well spoken, detailrd, and informative. Great job. I like how you talk about various use cases that make it a good or bad product. Also comparing it to google wear was nice.

[itsSebastianllz]

Regarding the charging every day:
I don't get where the problem is.
I mean you won't wear the watch at night and you will put it in the same place every night anyway (at least I do that with my watches), so why not on the charger? You can put the charger where ever you will put the watch every night.
From other early users I heard it lasts 16-18 hours, so enough for the day.

By the way: Great video
