I'm sure that you all heard about the upcoming Apple product Apple Watch is coming out on April 24. This is interesting because Apple watch is so different from all the other Apple products. It is a simple watch with all the fancy technologies and app in it.
What makes Apple Watch different from other watches? The answer to that is Apple Watch is made to make your life easier. People say is a waste of money to buy Apple Watch because it has almost the same function as a iPhone, except you wear it on your arm. At first I agreed with that but after I saw a video that show what Apple Watch is capable of doing I take back my thought.
The video showed you can answer the phone call from your Apple Watch, pay bills, and the part that "wow" me is you can open your garage door by just a simple touch on your watch.
The price is the next part that people often decide to buy the thing or not. The cheapest Apple Watch you can get is $349 and the most expensive one is $17,000. The price depends on the size and the band configuration. I don't know why Apple sells Apple watch for a price that can buy a iPhone. If Apple wants many people to wear it, they should make the price lower. If you have $349, would you buy a Apple Watch or a iPhone.
Hi Brian,
Thanks for sharing the video. I'm not getting one soon. Hey, nice job on this post. Your writing is looking good!

Hey Brian,
I personally would not get this watch for many reasons. The first and the biggest problem I have with these watches are the outrageous prices on the things. Sure the watches come with some cool features but they cost so much and do less than the actual phones. The second problem I have with these things would probably be the battery life. Apple Watches have a way shorter battery life than normal watches. So one of the biggest problems I would personally have is charging the thing up so that it does not die. I would also have a problem remembering to put I back on after I was done charging it. This would mean that I would barely ever use the watch when I could buy an apple device and remember it all the time.
Hey Brian! Interesting topic to choose the Apple Watch. I believe that the Apple Watch is a overpriced piece of technology. A iPhone has longer battery life than a Apple Watch. Also, it harder to press the touch screen buttons since the screen is so small. By that notion, people who have poor eyesight can't really use it. Not to mention the price. Who would pay $17,000 for it? It really does seem like a waste of money. Nice post on this and it's a good topic.
