The Suspense is Killing Me

Man, I've been saving my money for a couple months now in anticipation of the AW2. I really want to know if it's going to be more useful than the AW1 I tried for a few weeks. If not I'll stick with my Garmin Vivoactive and spend the money on like an HTC M9 or a Note 4 to alternate with my SE.

WWDC is just not coming fast enough lol.

Bank on it being faster with better battery life. That's the only thing for sure right now.

New bands! More colors and materials, slightly higher price..

The current watch would be faster if apps were native. They are being "mirrored" on your watch and therefore they are slow.

Exactly. That's one of the speculated changes for the watch.

I was very meh about the AW 1. Am really hoping that the new watchOS and updated hardware will help with performance and speed. Onboard GPS is a big win for me since I run a lot.

Of course it will. It's now a matter of your expectations. One man's snappy is another man's fail. I don't talk to that last man.
