Like somehow Apple wasn't going to list the basic features of the phone. And the thing is $299 on contract. Clearly the telacoms got tired of subsidizing our Iphone habits. no, the carriers were adamantly against that change apparently but apple being apple has the power to muscle their complaints out of the way. only thing I'm really excited about for the new iphone is the new camera. I hope pulling an htc is going to work out for them, especially if the concept is executed correctly. more megapixels on a fhd screen isn't going to do shit idk why phone companies insist on it. LMAO this apple watch looks atrocious btfo by moto360 | ||

square and flat would be alright, square and thick would look retarded on a person's wrist the ui is a lot niftier, but still isn't enough to make me consider it over the 360, assuming I'd ever buy a smartwatchthinger | ||

and unless you're going to be speaking into your wrist like a bad 70s scifi movie, a smartwatch isn't going to do a whole lot else for you either. so the most important thing about a watch is for it to look nice on your wrist; everything else is auxillary to that purpose. unfortunately none of the new wearables look nice on a wrist. they may look decent on paper, but if that was everything that mattered then 3dpd should actually be a thing. | ||

Have you used Google now? Its pretty great if you get it set up right. I could use a world where my watch told me that traffic was bad on a specific road and told me to go a different route. | ||
