I got on my flight, put on power Reserve mode at about 97% and left it there for about 6 hours. I checked it after the flight was over and turned it back on, and to my surprise, it was still at 97%. That was great because it charged in about an hour and a half to two hours from empty, which is pretty good. It does get a little bit warm while charging, but that's not a big deal.

You can also get a little bit of extra battery out of your iPhone if you don't check it as much since you're using your watch. I have the stainless steel version and I have like one or two tiny hairline scratches on it - not a big deal. My Moto 360 also has a couple of tiny hairline scratches on it, so that's just the way they are.

There are some accessories available for the Apple watch, which is an Apple product. There are docks for it and these are sort of alternative methods for charging it since Apple's method isn't exactly pretty. You can get a larger more pretty version of a dock to charge your Apple watch. The gold Apple watch Edition even comes with its own custom charging case.

There are also screen protectors which I guess also makes sense - you want to keep it in pretty decent condition and avoid those scratches. They work fine, everything still works with the screen protectors on. There are cases for the Apple watch too - not sure if you need a case for the Apple watch.

Yes, there is a mystery port on the Apple watch - actually a sort of tiny port a diagnostic port right behind where the band clips in. People are trying to come up with bright ideas to take advantage of this one. One company is actually building a new Apple watch band with a battery built into it to plug into that little tiny Port.

Force touch is really good on the Apple watch - mostly because the vibration motor in the watch is so good. It's a sort of more info button and it's gotten pretty useful. The Apple watch - my favorite thing about it is just long pressing on your notifications to clear all notifications. That's something that I wish would come to Android Wear, maybe you'll see that at Google IO in a couple of days.

The best combination of band size for the Apple watch really is all personal preference - you're just choosing a bunch of materials for it. My personal favorite would be the 42 mm space gray stainless steel with the leather loop. I actually think that leather Loop looks pretty badass.

Should you buy the Apple watch and a lot of people's gut response is either a heck no or a maybe. Yes, if you own an iPhone and you want a smartwatch the Apple watch and the pebble are really your only choices. At $349 there are other SmartWatches at this price and for the build the Apple watch sport is at least worth that price.

Anything above the Apple watch sport the functionality is exactly the same - you're only paying for a difference in materials, like leather or millanes band or stainless steel or sapphire crystal. The craftsmanship is fine on the Apple watch Sport and if you can deal with that I'd say yes.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey what is up guys I'm kbd here and welcome to my hotel room in San Francisco California and I'm here because I'm actually going to be going to Google IO which is just a couple of days away it's right around the corner uh around the corner literally but um I'm not doing a video about Google today I'm actually doing a video about Apple today so when you're out and about traveling or even just wearing the Apple watch in general no matter how much you cover it up or no matter how much you don't show it to anyone people when they figure out that you're wearing an Apple Watch inevitably have a lot of questions about it even if you're wearing some other Smartwatch they ask about the Apple watch so I have sort of compiled a list of the 10 most frequently asked questions that people have when they figure out that they're interested in the Apple watch number one what are the best apps for the Apple watch and this could easily be its own entire separate video but for now some of my favorites right now are Shazam which just lets me IDE a song with one tap on the watch uh and deliveries which is another favorite it's another one of those things that I've gotten used to on Android Wear getting a notification when a package gets delivered and then actually some first-party ones so I really like Maps the turn BYT directions function and the activity tracker is very good if you're a fitness person the Apple watch sport combined with the fitness tracker is really good and then of course there's things you know like Instagram and Twitter but the thing is these aren't really Apple watch apps essentially they're iPhone apps that happen to have an Apple Watch component to them so number two what's the deal with these Apple watch apps and why are they so slow here's the thing Apple watch apps are not native and what this means is the components the resources for the apps are not actually stored on the watch they're stored on your iPhone and when you tap to open that app on your watch it streams and moves all those resources to the watch for you to open so that's why it can be a little bit delayed a little bit slow and can feel like it's lagging a lot and you can store up to about 20 megabytes of image resources on the watch for a particular app but bottom line is they're not native and that's why they're slow fortunately there's a fix for that thanks to the Apple watchkit framework native Apple watch apps are coming next next year should it have been that way to begin with probably but at least they're getting better number three is it waterproof no but it is rated for ipx7 water resistance and essentially this is just a precautionary measure uh it means you can go out in the rain and wear it outside and it's not a big deal if it gets splashed but there's been videos on YouTube of it getting you know water poured on it and being submerged and even people taking showers with it I wouldn't recommend those things even though it technically survived but yeah it's water resistant to a degree four how is the battery life really it's actually pretty good in the hierarchy of modern SmartWatches that not including Pebble uh the Apple watch is pretty much up there it's I've said in the full review it lasts about a day and a half on battery I've never killed it in a single day and I've gotten pretty close to two days pretty frequently and I've also got to test the power Reserve mode when I was traveling today got on my flight put on power Reserve mode at about 97% 6 hours later the flight was over and I check it and I turn it back on and it's still at 97% so that was great it charges in about about an hour and a half to 2 hours from empty and it does get a little bit warm while charging but that's not a big deal and you can also get a little bit of extra battery out of your iPhone if you don't check it as much since you're using your watch number five does it scratch yes it kind of does I have the stainless steel version and I have like one or two tiny hairline scratches on it not a big deal my Moto 360 also has a couple of tiny hairline scratches on it so that's not a big deal that's just the way they are so number six what kind of accessories are there for the Apple watch it's an Apple product surely there's going to be access accessies and yes there are there's a whole bunch first of all there are some docks for it and these are sort of alternative methods for charging it since Apple's method isn't exactly pretty you can get sort of a larger more pretty version of a dock to charge your Apple watch those I understand actually the gold Apple watch Edition even comes with its own custom charging case then there are screen protectors which I guess also makes sense you want to keep it in pretty decent condition you want to avoid those scratches and force touch still works everything still works with the screen protectors on so that's fine and then there are cases for the Apple watch you don't need a case for the Apple watch number seven is it true that there is a mystery port on the Apple watch actually yes there is there's a sort of a tiny port a diagnostic port right behind where the band Clips in where it actually does accept power so people are sort of trying to come up with bright ideas to take advantage of this one company is actually building a new Apple watch band with a battery built into it to plug into that little tiny Port sort of a bright idea I'll leave a link to that right below that like button if you want to check it out and uh yeah that's sort of the idea it's mostly still for Apple employees to troubleshoot the watch number eight what's good with Force touch actually Force touch is really good especially in the Apple watch Mostly because the vibration motor in the watch is so good but it's a sort of a more info button and it's gotten pretty useful and the Apple watch my favorite thing about it is just long pressing on your notifications to clear all notifications that's something that I wish would come to Android Wear maybe you'll see that at Google IO in a couple of days but uh it's here to stay it's in the new Macbook it's on the new Apple watch and actually it's expected to show up in the next iPhone as well so Force touch it works and it's pretty good even though it has a terrible name number nine what is the best combination of band sl size for the Apple watch really it's all personal preference you're just choosing a bunch of materials for it my personal favorite would be the 42 mm space gray stainless steel with the leather loop I actually think that leather Loop looks pretty badass so that brings us to number 10 which is should you buy the Apple watch and a lot of people's gut response is either a heck no or a maybe yes uh if you own an iPhone and you want a smartwatch the Apple watch and the pebble are really your only choices and at 349 bucks there are other SmartWatches at this price and for

paying for a leather or millanes band or stainless steel or sapphire crystal those kinds of things the craftsmanship is fine on the Apple watch Sport and if you can deal with that I'd say yes but if you're going to go above that really think about exactly what materials are getting and if you think spending 57 $800 or $10,000 is worth it on an Apple Watch I would lean towards no but if you're going to just get into this for the first time Apple watch sport is fine so there you go guys I hope you enjoyed this video thank you for watching and if you found it helpful at all definitely share it for other people who have questions about the Apple watch hopefully this will answer theirs as well again thanks for watching and I'll see you at google.io talk to you the next one peacehey what is
