The Apple Watch: A Quick and Brief Update
As I finished watching the live Apple keynot, which is actually wrapping up right behind me, I couldn't help but feel that there was one thing that made this announcement somewhat less interesting. However, I'm sure it's not for lack of excitement around the Apple watch. In fact, as someone who loves their own Apple watch, I can confidently say that this device has been a game-changer in the world of smart wearables.
The Apple Watch has a 97% customer satisfaction rate, which is pretty damn good for Apple's first attempt in the market of smart wearables. This speaks volumes about the quality and functionality of the Apple watch, and it's clear that customers are enjoying their experience with this device. As someone who loves my own Apple watch, I can attest to its comfort and ease of use.
Now, let's talk about Watch OS 2, which was already announced a few months ago but is still exciting news for fans of the Apple watch. This new operating system packs plenty of new features that make the Apple watch even better in my opinion. While it may not be revolutionary, there are some notable improvements and additions to the original feature set. For example, Watch OS 2 allows video support, which means that users will soon be able to view live video of their GoPro camera right on their Apple watch.
This new feature is a game-changer for outdoor enthusiasts and anyone who wants to capture high-quality footage without having to carry around an additional device. I can already imagine myself using the GoPro app on my Apple watch to record stunning videos while hiking or biking. The possibilities are endless, and I'm excited to see how this feature will be used in the future.
In addition to Watch OS 2, Apple announced that Facebook Messenger is coming to the Apple watch. While this may not be a groundbreaking development for everyone, it's still an exciting announcement for fans of social media and messaging apps. With the ability to receive and respond to messages directly from your wrist, users will soon be able to stay connected on-the-go without having to carry around their phone.
Another notable announcement was the partnership between Apple and Aires to bring premium bands for the Apple watch. This is a significant development for those who want to upgrade their Apple watch experience with new straps. The Aires partnership ensures that users will have access to high-quality, stylish bands that complement their device perfectly.
Finally, Apple announced a brand-new finish of the Apple watch in rose gold. For fans of this metallic color, this is definitely exciting news. Arose gold finish adds an extra touch of sophistication and elegance to the already sleek design of the Apple watch. With this new finish available on the market, users will soon be able to upgrade their device with a stylish and premium look.

One announcement that really stood out during the keynote was the medical breakthrough made by Apple in partnership with Aires. This technology, called AirStrip, allows users to monitor their baby's heart rate in real-time. This is a game-changer for new parents and healthcare professionals alike, providing a quick and accurate way to check on a child's vital signs.
For those who work in the medical field, this announcement is significant. It shows that Apple is committed to making technology accessible to everyone, regardless of age or ability.
