Icon Apple Watch Series 3
It’s independence day for Apple’s ticker
Ah great, another watch…
Can’t you take the hint? That grotty old ticker currently on your wrist smells sweatier than a stale kebab. But this here isn’t just any watch. It’s an Apple Series 3 watch, and if this won’t persuade you to give your wrist a much-needed upgrade then nothing will. It’s the stuff of your childhood dreams, now allowing you to make calls to your friends without the help of your trusty iphone.
Wow! So many new opportunities to publicly embarrass myself!
Just think of them all for a moment. You wish happy birthday to your dad while doing squats. Give a meter reading in the middle of a swim. Organise your laundry collection on the football pitch. All you need to do is sign up for a £5/month contract with EE, and your twin pursuits of athletic self-betterment and mundane housekeeping will be entwined.
Hmmm. I’m not exactly sold.
Well, think of it this way. We’ve been waiting three years for the Apple Watch to do everything a smartwatch should. First came the apps. Then they got better, and both GPS and waterproofing were added into the mix. Now, you can use it to ring up whomever you please and stream music on the fly. It’s every bit the complete wearable. So if you don’t want a Watch now, it’s just not for you.
I get it now. But what’s that red dot on the side for, then?
Consider it your subtle way of showing other Watch Series 3 owners that you’ve got the flagship cellular version. Another, less independent Series 3 model shares the same dual-core processor and a W2 wireless chip that promises greater battery efficiency. Sold? Now, please unstrap that old stinker and give your arm what it deserves.
