How does the GPS drain the battery? Able to get through a busy day no problem? 2 days?
Addition of GPS is a good thing. But I won't use a watch for GPS navigation while driving. My iPhone is best suited for it. Yes if your watch time adjusts automatically using the GPS while travelling. Its a welcome move. Otherwise i might keep the GPS off.
Yes we are smart people, thats why i want a smartwatch, will never turn to a treditional wrist watch. Since I am in Apple eco system, therefore I will buy an apple watch. I am not an athlete, so will less utilise it for fitness or health tracking or any other such activity. But a watch is not meant to be charged everyday. It is supposed to last for longer
