Apple's first entry into the wearable market is expected to ship in April, and with a March media event scheduled for the 9th, it is expected that we will start to learn more of the specifics about the Apple Watch that have so far been sorely lacking.
The Apple Watch is, without a doubt, the most anticipated wearable of 2015, and now we have CEO Tim Cook talking about how the device will become more than just a limited functionality gadget some time into its release.
A short while ago, Apple confirmed the widely-suspected notion that it would soon be holding a special media event, having just sent out invitations for a gathering at the Yerba Buena on March 9th. Most of the time, these keynotes are beamed out to the masses, although occasionally, Apple does surprise us by not streaming live. In this instance, though, interested parties will be able to follow the thrills and spills of the 'Spring forward' event as it happens, with Apple having just confirmed that live streams will be available.
Apple has just sent out press invites for an event to be held on March 9th with the tagline “Spring forward.” It is being speculated that the event will focus on the Apple Watch, and hopefully we’ll get to know the pricing and other details.
Apple's marketing efforts have now tapped into the famous Vogue magazine, where its smartwatch has been covered quite handsomely in its March issue. Featured in a multi-page spread, we take a look at the photos and further details, right after the jump.
During September's unveiling, Apple revealed much about its upcoming smartwatch endeavor. As such, we know that owning an iPhone will be a prerequisite, that it will integrate with some of the company's newer platforms like Apple Pay and HealthKit, and that there'll be dozens of different configurations in total. What we have yet to hear are specifics on the device's splash / waterproof abilities, but the company's head honcho Tim Cook has shed some light on this matter during a recent trip to Germany.
Thanks to the fanfare that coincided with the launch of the iPhone 6, we already have a pretty good idea as to what to expect from the Apple Watch. Early response has been positive, not only from experts in the watch industry, but from technology enthusiasts as well, and while it's too early to cast aspersions, it does seem as though we're on the cusp of a game-changer
The jury is out, and the royally premium Apple Watch Edition is today proving its weight in gold, literally. The gold plated watch has been touted to be one of the most expensive consumer devices from Apple, and as such there were questions about how much gold the wearable would actually be carrying.
Apple Watch may not have seen the light of day yet, but it is already surrounding itself with practical features that look well prepared to thwart the competition. Coming April, and following the launch of a glucose monitoring app, Apple Watch users will be able to track their glucose levels.
Here's something that was bound to happen, but sure, let's all blame the Apple Watch for it. Some schools and colleges in Britain have put a ban on smartwatches to be worn into an examination hall, citing concerns about students' use of the wearable for cheating on a test or exam. Details to follow after the jump.
