El Apple Watch It is today an unfinished product, which is precisely why it will not arrive until the beginning of 2015 and Apple has reserved certain details of the watch or has half counted them. After yesterday's keynote and the first Apple Watch review Recorded on video, some secrets of the device have been revealed that you may not know yet.
Precisely for all this, perhaps the specifications of the Apple Watch will be altered as the weeks go by, for example, the duration of its battery that is still unknown. Without further ado, let's see those Seven qualities of the Apple Watch that you may have overlooked.
- We can't submerge it in the water: we indicated it this morning and we remember it again, the Apple Watch will be waterproof but not submersible. This means that if it rains, we sweat or wash our hands, the watch will hold perfectly but if we go into the pool with it, we will get an unpleasant surprise when we discover that water has entered it. This first generation of the Apple Watch seems that it will not be able to submerge.
- Available in two different screen sizes: We do not all have the same tastes or the same wrist size, which is why Apple will offer its watch in two different sizes. The one they showed yesterday is the one with a 1,7-inch screen and there will be a second edition with a 1,5-inch screen and smaller box, perfect for women or people with small wrists.
- Left-handed adapted: the first time we start the device we can select the orientation of its interface, in this way, left-handed people can also use the Apple Watch without making it uncomfortable.
- Applications- Apple Watch will have its own app store and SDK so developers can unleash their imaginations. Since in a matter of days we will fill the screen with icons with new applications, we will be able to distribute their placement using the same method that we already use on the iPhone, that is, we press an icon for several seconds and it will be able to move at will.
- Gold edition, in the purest jewelry style: there will be an edition of the Apple Watch with an 18K gold case, therefore, the rest of the device's packaging has to be at the level of a more typical product of a jewelry store than an electronics store. This version of the watch will come with a very stylish box that hides a Lightning connector on the back and also, inside we have the magnetic connector for recharging the Apple Watch battery, in such a way that when placing the watch on it, it will be in a vertical position
- Ping my iPhone: If we leave the iPhone somewhere in the house and we are not able to find it, the "Ping my iPhone" function that we will execute from the Apple Watch will allow the mobile to start emitting a sound, so we can find it easily.
- Speaker and microphone: One of the things I liked the most about the Apple Watch is that it has a built-in speaker and microphone, in this way we can invoke Siri, receive calls and answer them from the watch without taking out the iPhone, write messages with our voice, etc.
There are still many unknowns that remain to be revealed about this Apple Watch, perhaps in the iPad renewal keynote they will reveal some more detail. What we do know is that the most basic version of the watch will cost $ 350.
Excellent, nowhere did they say how resistant it was in the water, great article 🙂
Let him run for a year if he stops being chubby 🏃💨💨
I have a question: will it have a 3.5mm headphone jack?
No, it will not have an audio jack
One question Nacho, will it be autonomous ??… that is, it can only be used by having the iDevice with one, or can it be used like any wristwatch ??
Excuse my ignorance
But if you have the headphones connected to the iPhone from the Apple watch you can control the music, I think that if you have the headphones plugged into a relog, the cable is very uncomfortable continuously rubbing the skin.
It is "to see", not "to have."
One question Nacho, will it be autonomous ??… that is, it can only be used by having the iDevice with one, or can it be used like any wristwatch ??
Excuse my ignorance
The basic functions will be autonomous but for more complex things (use of maps and location, notifications, making calls, etc.) you will depend on the iPhone. Without the iPhone, the watch loses many integers. If you are looking for something autonomous, you may be more interested in the Samsung Gear S. Greetings!
And will you be able to listen to music while you run?
I recommend you wait, Apple has more plans and I think this is not all, there are trademarks registered with the name "iwatch" by Apple, patents for flexible screens, solar charging, and much more, if you notice Apple plays with the market, at the speed of the competition or one step ahead. With the iPhone that did not happen, they put something on the market that was years away and that did Apple a dirty trick, now it is playing because it has a good reputation and it is going to sell this like anything else it takes out, if things are up to it. they start to come out more because they will put a cane but it is unlikely, do you think that a company like Apple only has a plan A and does its plan A and that's it? no gentlemen in this case Apple has a plan A and B, the first is very good and the second is fine, it has done things like plan B is seen from afar and has left A improving it and then converting it into a plan B and again there will be a new plan A.
Well, I need a dose of drug ... for now I will wait to see how the market reacts
I have already seen LG with a curved and flexible screen, and it is indifferent to me on mobile or watch. I do not know what patent you are talking about, but if you google it you will find it already. Look : http://www.lg.com/cl/celulares/lg-LGD956-g-flex.
As for solar charging, I have had external solar chargers in my hands and they still have a lot to develop, I see the topic of fast charging closer, but on all smartphones, tablets, etc ... Greetings.
Well, between now and the beginning of 2015 there is still a lot to do, and who knows if many things improve… I particularly like how it is, but I am clear that better things can be done, such as the duration of the battery and that it is submersible.
clock fiasco I was expecting something more for real 🙁
I am an amateur swimmer, I am training and a surfer…. with that I say it all
A pity, you will no longer be able to see the time while running in a tube, or you will not be able to answer your calls when you are submerged in the water ... You idiot!
Dunce?? The iphone 6 has a barometer, what less ... One day it will show the charge in the cylinder, who knows, or a map of the water bottom, the pressure that your body is supporting, or a communication system with other divers while diving with some kind of mask And hands-free (the coverage would be a little bit hehe), the options are unlimited I think, Apple goes one step at a time ... I for example sweat a lot, until the fact that when I do my 80 km by bike, the sports shirt drips ¿¿¿¿ will hold only being water resistant ??
In the first image, I am very much like the first iPhone.
How is it not submersible ??? !!! In my opinion, they have screwed up !!, I love Apple, let it be clear, but making a watch that is not submersible ... has been the big screw, let's see if the batteries are put in and in addition to making a submersible clock they make an iPhone submersible. For my part, I am not going to buy it.
