If you could make one change to the Apple Watch, what would it be?

You've been given the power to make one modification (either adding a feature or removing something you don't like) to the Apple Watch. What would you pick? I have a few options listed in the poll already - if you select "Other," leave a comment explaining what you'd change!

I've never created a poll before, so I thought this might be something fun to try.

I would like better performance. More specifically, I want additional applications running natively on the watch.

My only concern is battery life. I have read that the exercise app is a battery killer and I am a runner. I will be charging my watch during my hour + commute.

I'm fine with charging every night but I would make it thinner. Sleeker profile is something that is important to me. Although, someone said performance. And I have yet to truly see how it performs but if it lags like some have said that is truly the most important thing to be changed imo.

I'd imagine there will be a significant update next year from the 1.0 product. Look at the change from the ipad 1 to the ipad 2. Apple's 1.0 version products usually have big updates after a year or two and then become their category leaders.

I would change it to a round face watch instead of a rectangular face watch.

I was wondering if anyone would want a round face versus a square one. Every watch I own has a round face - I'll be anxious to see the square in person!!

Mid range option is priced to high to me...it should cap out at $600. The accessories should also be cut down about 35-50% in price.

Also, there's just something missing with this device. To me it needs something more...something that really wows me. Nothing I saw made me want it...there's gotta be something to add to it to really tickle my fancy. What that is? I have no clue.

I also voted for a different watch face. I prefer round watch faces.

I would make it so that it could be used completely independent of the iPhone.

I think this is something Microsoft did right with the Band. Obviously, Microsoft's services mentality is much different than Apple's, but yes. I agree.

I chose longer battery life but honestly the naming convention was a close second. I think it is utterly stupid and confusing the way it is named. So it's Watch Sport. Watch, Watch Edition. The Watch is in the names of the other two models with a designation of what they are for. If I heard the names I would assume the Sport was more expensive than the Watch. They should have named it something Watch Life anything but maybe that's just me.

Always batter life. Even if it lasted 7 days I'd still say battery life ha

I haven't even had one in my hand yet. How does one answer this when no one has had hands on experience with the watch?

All of the choices I created and how I feel about the watch came from all the research I've done. Granted, I could change my mind if I have the device in my hand but the issues I've listed are how it looks on paper.

 

[iLive an iLife]

What other changes would make the Apple Watch just a little better or more user friendly?

 

[Audizine]

Besides the battery life. I would like to see the Stainless Steel model in a brushed version... I'm not really a big fan of the shiny steel.

Yeah, I would be on board with that too. I feel like the shiny finish will definitely show more scratch, nicks and wear/year than the aluminum version.
