3) The Galaxy Gear does about as much as this Google thing does, Google's just has a better interface.
4) Did I lie? Smart watches were never a thing until Apple rumors started circulating. Then Samsung released the Gear and now everyone's releasing these things even though they have absolutely nothing special about them.
Why are you bringing GaGa into this?
Apple isn't playing catch up, they're giving consumers what they want. If they didn't do that then they would go out of business. The fact that they even released the iPhone alone pushed the touchscreen smartphone ahead 5 years.
Smart watches may be something in the future, but releasing a band with a flat, round screen isn't the way. When somebody gets it right with a flexible screen, that's when they'll stand a chance. For now, the only people who will buy these things are tech geeks and that's probably how it'll be for the next decade+ because most people are fine with just a cell phone. Smart watches don't do enough for the cost to be justifiable; they're as expensive or more expensive than an actual phone.
fff absolutely not |
2. The watch Motorola announced has the Android Wear software, like I said earlier seems like you didn't bother to read the articles.
3. And no you're wrong, again you didn't bother to read the article. I'm not gonna keep explaining my self to you.
4. That's debatable tbh.
And I didn't bring Gaga into this, I was just making a comparison between Apple stans and Monsters.
But the iPhone wasn't the first phone with a capacitive display though ? So idk where are you going with that part. We're talking about today.. let the past go. Apple is now playing catch up to Google. IDK what's so hard to understand? The FACTS are there. Google it.
And no not only tech geeks will buy smart watches, I've seen normal people on the subway with the Gear, ch.. even one of my co workers have one and she's not a tech geek at all
. That's your opinion about the flexible displays, but it seems like the GP doesn't care
