It ’s been almost a year since the firstApple Watchwas released , and follow itspoor sales routine , we were hoping that we might get some much - need love at Apple ’s special press event today .
regrettably , the geniuses at Apple have not found a way to add any meaningful update to the overpriced wearable gimmick . In a rather heroic attempt to gain some attention , the company ( briefly ) announced several new nylon watch bands ( yay ! ) and a modest reduction in terms .
The Apple Watch now costsonly $ 299 , which is still a hefty monetary value even for a smartwatch . Of course , Apple emphasizes its sumptuousness design and strength of its app market as reason to choose the Apple Watch over any of its competitors .
Apple has sell more than7 million unts of theApple Watch to date , which is significantly more than any other smartwatch on the satellite . However , when you compare it to the13 millioniPhone 6s and sextet Plus that were sold in just three day , the Apple Watch has plentifulness of way to grow .
Whether or not the Apple Watch price cut facilitate aid sales remains to be seen — but we can order you that it definitely does n’t add any much - needed functionality to the Apple Watch . So if you ’re looking for a good manner to spend $ 300 , our best advice would be to search in other places than the one - twelvemonth - old Apple Watch .
