The Apple Watch is a useful device. It integrates seamlessly with my phone, has various fitness tracking features including water activities, delivers important notifications without making noise, and gives me access to use voice commands on my phone. Its overnight charging gives me a nightstand alarm clock.

It's not a world-changing device, but it's a very useful accessory.

50/50. I wore one for nearly 4 years. Then one day I took it off because I was travelling somewhere really dangerous. And I never put it back on again. Turned out it was more ritual than utility for me.

More or less same with me. I wore mine for years, and upgraded a couple of times. But interacting with it is awkward, and my Apple Watches have easily been the most glitchy Apple products I’ve ever owned. I stopped wearing mine about 6 months ago and I don’t miss it. In fact, I starting buying watches I like - vintage digital watches and mechanical watches, and I’m much happier.

This probably isn’t true for everyone, but being able to pause and rewind audio (podcasts or books on tape) without pulling out my phone is a big quality of life improvement for me.

Feels like they’ll probably have more gestures built into AirPods sooner or later.
