I'll stick with my watches full of springs and gears with whatever kind of strap that is most definitely not rainbow unity alphabet I feel like having on it. I tried the smart watch thing for a bit too. Not for me. Still just used it to see the time anyway.
I noticed too the second time around....holy shit $99. For a stretchy nylon watch strap? These Apple people are batshit crazy. That's not even some special price for "unity" that's what they charge for these things.
They, Apple, charges $999 for a fucking monitor stand. And $200 for a VESA mount, you know, the type of mount that is pretty much standardized among every other company? 700 bucks for wheels for their shitty tower computer and $300 for just "feet".
And every time they pull this Apple fans rush to say it's okay because some convoluted mental gymnastics.
Fuck them. What could have been a cool tech company failed, hard.
I don't keep up with them at all, so I had to look up. That for $1000? I wouldn't be shocked if I could pay a machinist to handmake that for $1000. Just looking through their accessories makes me think of so much stupid. Don't get me wrong, I'll spend money. I'll even stupidly spend money. But I'm not buying a $100 nylon watch band for twice as much as I've paid for a handmade italian leather one or $1000 for a chunk of aluminum where I could have bought THREE of my 27" 4K monitors for less.
