Yep, same here. I got my very first Apple Watch last month, and it has /drastically/ decreased my phone usage. Sometimes I go out to run errands without my phone, paying for things with Apple Pay on the watch. It's liberating.

I do still bring my phone around though, mostly for the camera.

There are some things that are infuriating about the watch though, when it feels as if what I want to do is artificially constrained by the software. Why can't I copy and paste a link to send in a message? Why can't I simply read a podcast description? Why do podcasts refresh seemingly at random?

Other than a few niggling frustrations, I'm extremely happy with the watch.
