Man I fear the day I have to upgrade to Yosemite.
Helvetica as a system font... What the hell were they thinking. Terrible readability.I'll start a petition to bring back lucida grande.
- Using it now; looks and functions great! You in the public beta Hombre_Lobo?ideaist
- That's good to hear! I'm not, I only have my hackintosh so i don't risk upgrading lol!Hombre_Lobo

Fuck, that watch is hideous. I can't get over how bulbous and ugly it is. The Moto 360 looks much nicer. This is gonna be Apple's Google Glass in terms of fail.
(I have iphone, ipad, and two macs, btw)
- or it will be a huge hit and youll look like one of those derps that said the same thing about the ipadCygnusZero4
- Moto looks shit when you actually look at it.Jaline
- Google doesn't even sell the Glass yet.monospaced
- Actually they do now: https://glass.google…formed
- ... the moto watch doesn't work well.
And joining an explorer program is not selling glass, it's crowdsourcing.zarkonite - crowdsourcing.zarkonite

Are the edges of the new phone slightly rounded? In some photos it looks that way and in others it looks like a right angle.

- really apple?... r e a lly?maquito
- whats the issue here?CygnusZero4
- There is a subtle, yet disturbing horizontal spacing between some characters. Don't you see?maquito
- i see it and it's driven me nutsprophetone
- I mean... I don't want to sound obsessive, but it's the cover of a product.maquito
- You just don't go and put out a cover with such a big kerning issue. Shame on you apple.maquito

- It's sad that Apple is the ONLY company that is guilty of this.monospaced
- so don't buy itdirtydesign
- Yeh mono, loads of successful companies do this, not just apple, I'm liking the trend of home made shit that's coming aboutHombre_Lobo
- since they're not alone it should not be mentioned? okmoldero
- Those other two groups would love the poverty wages Apple Store employees get.omahadesigns
- Moldero. No it's fine to mention. It's just the bad guy isn't just them, it's the industry itself and the Chinese labor practices toomonospaced

Damn... I'm not upgrade eligible until February 23rd, 2015. I guess that makes sense... you can upgrade every 2 years right? I got the iPhone 5 on Feb 23, 2013 (a great day considering I found out I was getting laid off that day).
But I smashed my phone's screen on vacation a few weeks ago, and it'd be $100 or so to get a new screen, so maybe I just subtract that $100 from the non-upgrade price to feel a little better about it?

The phone reminds me a lot of the Sony Xperia z3
Although I suppose it's getting to a state where it's hard to make a simple clean black rectangle look somewhat unique.I thought the black iPhone 5 was the sexiest phone ever made (and I don't rly like iPhones). Not so much a fan of this new one, in person might be different.
- no actually it reminds me of the first iphone2002
- The Sonys look pretty nice. Need to see in person, tho.formed
- yeh 2002, agree with thatHombre_Lobo

that watch looks vulgar

Good job crapple! Their own keynote doesnt work on their own ipads! Steve would execute these inept clowns trying to pretend they are actually the real apple. This company died with steve.
- Yawn. Call me when they are finally dead. You've been saying this for so many years.monospaced

I love apple products, and what honestly makes me sad is the "solution" found in that rounded angles, making the products look pretty "samsungesque" The flat borders in the previous phones and products had that subtle Braun resemblance, and looked classy and had a peculiar character, in comparison to other products, imo. I don't quite see a reason for doing that, than to look more similar to galaxy, and it's sad to see a brand with such a concise set of decisions in the last years messing up in such a cheap and vulgar way.

Fuck this shit. For 350$ this is a joke. I'd pay 99$ for it, maybe.
I just can not stand the square shape. I wasn't able to get interested in the Android watches either until Motorola came around with the moto 360. If I'm gonna get a watch, it has to be circular. A square just doesn't look right to me.
Square-faced watches are tacky. I'm really surprised at Apple for releasing this-- they got out-designed by Motorola, plain and simple. I guess I'll reserve final judgement until I have some first-hand experience with it. But I don't anticipate purchasing one.
FUCK. FUUUUCK
seriously so pissed right now. My life is ruined

i dont mind the sport one, but yep its not definitely no Suunto..
I do however really like the sport pack.. its something that the ipod nano should have been, but wasnt.. i dont know if i would pay that much for a watch computer.
one question they didnt answer was they said you can store music on it, but is it just for listening on watch? or is it bluetooth to headphones?
