Yeah, that could have been a watch given to a customer. . . . Okay, I can't be the first person who thought that.

I like ifixit. Now those stupid drop test videos I hate and feel like the devices would be better served going to customers and not wasted.

Drop tests should be minimal as the watch is not a carry device. I would like to see wrist impact tests as those are more likely to accrue

Agree. I just meant in general. Anytime a new product is launched the drop tests come out and waste a perfectly good device someone could have actually used

Come on, you mean you don't want to see someone microwave an Apple Watch?
