If you're an Apple lover then you must be thinking to buy an Apple Watch. Here are few reasons whether you should buy it or not :
Reasons to buy
·
For a
parent, there could be certain benefits in buying your child an Apple Watch –
it could make it easier to see exactly where your kids are if you’re the sort
of person who uses a tracking app.
·
One of
the clear advantages of the Apple Watch for adults is the tracking of activity
– sure, there are plenty of other trackers out there too, but (just like
cameras) the best activity tracker you have is the one you have on you. With
the Apple Watch, it’s always on you.
·
For an
adult, the Apple Watch is a second screen, it’s a convenient way to glance at
notifications and it’s a way to make payments without getting out your wallet
or phone. What it is, is convenience wrapped in a fashion accessory.
· The reality
of the product is that it’s an early first version that performs best for
people with a busy schedule and umpteem notifications to keep on top
Reasons not to buy
- For kids putting brand new technology in the hands of a young child is a pretty bad idea in some ways too – it might be less conspicuous than an iPhone being pulled out of a pocket or bag, but an Apple Watch is a highly desirable item for thieves. Then of course there’s the paired iPhone too. Two devices must be more attractive than one.
- We don’t really know what sort of effect constant notifications are having on our sustained attention spans, so strapping something to your wrist that’s designed to efficiently bring you notifications could potentially have a greater long-term effect on a nine-year old than, say, a 40-year old.
- Kids are fickle. They get bored easily, and allegiances change – and the Apple Watch is not cheap. They might want the Apple Watch now because all their friends have one, but are you going to get them the new model when that’s released in a year or two? Technology companies don’t tend to just stop releasing new models of popular and highly-profitable hardware.
- $350 doesn’t grow on trees
