Don't buy this Apple product this year

The next Apple Watch will almost certainly be the best one Apple ever created. And yet, there are lots of reasons you should take a pass.

Definitely food for thought... my iPad is getting old as well... older actually than my Watch. I'll have to wait and see.

Ok, I won’t buy one then ! Actually I wasn’t going to, I never did before.

I was considering buying one for the alleged new health features, but those got stymied some time back, so I will most likely stuck with my series 4 for another year.

I really wasn’t considering a new Watch, but the information contained in the article would not have played a role if I were planning on getting one. I mean, the medical feature, at this point in “my” life, isn’t important and I’m a person who wears my  watch all day every day.

Of course, my usage differs from many others so I can understand why some would consider passing on it.

My wife and I both got the series 6 as anniversary gifts to each other. While I’d love a watch to monitor BG levels, I don’t see how that’s possible without a needle.

So for now I’ll stay with the series 6 and the FreeStyle Libre.

I’ll probably stick with my Series 5.

To begin, I just bought a MacBook in order to familiarize myself with the surroundings, and I must confess that I'm intrigued. I've also confirmed the purchase of an iMac. In recent years, I've acquired a love for Macs. Although I will never pay for a replacement!

I've been wondering the same thing.

Well, I have an  Watch 3 that really needs a replacement. So I probably will buy the new series 7 and stick with it for some 3-4 years again. If some feature really important to me would be released in this time window, so I’ll sell it and buy the new one. If I keep waiting for the perfect watch (or phone, notebook, or whatever) I would never buy them. That’s how I see this question, at least…

Same here. My stainless steel Series 5 is still going strong w/excellent battery life.

My series 3 stainless is still going strong for me. Probably won’t upgrade until this one quits.
