Will we be upset if Apple Watch X means our existing, extensive watchband collection no longer works? (alien.top)

Per title. We knew it was coming some day, tho perhaps not this soon. Will you be upset if you need ugly adapter to make your extensive + expensive watchband collection work?

No, after 10 years of band compatibility I think that’s more than enough for an accessory. The Apple Watch innovation can’t be stopped to support the previous bands.

next innovation will come with watch band adapter for $9.99 and $14.99 for titanium version

Only? I’d say more like 69.90$ and 99.90$

Depends on whether we're talking official Apple, or Chinese knock-off from the same factory.

What innovation would require a switch up other than making more money? Design doesn’t need to change to welcome innovation imo

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

imo it could look more seamless going into the watch. pixel watch has a clever design.

That would be a nice change. What I don't like at the moment is the part that you push into the watch. In some combinations the colors don't match and look just bad.

Innovation? You’re joking right?
