Apple Watch Series 7 gonna be FIRE

[franknitty711]

I have had an apple watch for almost 2 years now. I replaced my Fitbit with that when it died and can say the only thing I really enjoy about the watch are below. Otherwise, the battery stinks and the VO2MAX calculations are considerably off. I have noticed recently the remote monitoring data seems to be much "too consistent". There should be more variability, but its missing. The sleep tracking compared to my old Fitbit that give you sleep data (REM, Light, Deep).

I like the ability to ping my phone when i lose it
Fitness Choices for exercise is good
Ring UI that keeps me engaged and committed.

Gonna give my watch to my son and get a Fitbit again.

I feel you. Battery life leaves something to be desired. I'll also add to your list how seamlessly it works with navigation/maps. Gives a subtle vibration when approaching an upcoming turn. I also like the text notifications - helps me with being on my phone less.

Fitbit has a terrible build quality. They usually ended up falling apart. I wonder if Google ownership fixed that.

I’ve owned a Fitbit charge 2 since 2018 and there’s no sign that it’s going to fall apart. I’ve used it as a sleep tracker and morning vibrating alarm every night and it’s stil going strong.

You do know you can be slim and have high blood pressure. Especially for black folks cac it’s hereditary

You are absolutely right about that. Maybe a Garmin or something else but I have seen two watches last 2 years and Die

I went back on what I said and got one of these. Microcenter had the 45mm on sale for $360. Sold my Series 4 44mm Nike for $150 and got the 45mm Nike. For $210 out of pocket it's not bad. The battery charges so fast it's feasible to actually sleep with this on and wear it most of the day. I charge 30 mins before work for the shower and getting ready and maybe 30 mins before bed and other than that I can wear it all day. The old one I just charged it overnight. I bet within a generation or 2 you'll be able to wear it all day.

You can get an app called Auto Sleep that does all that sleep tracking better than the default. $5 in the app store. There are other apps too.

That's not the point of an Apple Watch. It's an accessory for your phone not a device that does what it can't.

series 7 really came and went because there was no re-design that most people anticipated.

What much changes can they do?

 

[humminbird]

What much changes can they do?

there was a rumor of a new design change for the watch and possible new features like blood sugar and temperature detection

plus they were supposed to change the physical watch to be more squared off like the iphone/ipad/macbook
