So, who got an Apple Watch this morning?

Apple Watch Health Apps

My social channels are filled with shots of shiny new Apple Watches on very proud wrists.

Sadly, I had no signal for 30-40 minutes on the pre-order morning and missed Apple’s artificial deadline to get the device today. 😉

I have to say that the photos I am seeing are showing off the Watch in a rather glorious light. The retina screen does look nice.

So… have you seen one in the wild yet? Have you got one? First impressions?

Have you had to charge it yet? 😉

  1. I’m still waiting for my  watch. I’ve ordered the Sport model in space grey aluminium with a black strap. There’s still 2-4 weeks left for delivery, it’s just killing me!

    I’m usually desk-bound for much of the day, so perhaps the activity-based features will be wasted on me (unfortunately), however I’m looking forward to the convenience of notifications (as long as they’re not too intrusive). Exciting times…

  2. You’re lucky yours is scheduled for May! Most of us here in the UK are forced to wait until June unless Apple is playing around!

  3. I ordered at exactly 8.01 am UK time using the Apple Store app, but I still came away with a 4-6 week delivery time. Afterwards, I discovered that the model I ordered is by far the most popular, which probably explains it. June….too bad…hopefully they’ll surprise you a little earlier than anticipated! I’ve still got to get mine shipped halfway around the world once it’s delivered in the UK….could be a recipe for disaster!

  4. UPDATE: Mine has now been shipped to the UK. I’ll be receiving it here in Asia in a few weeks, so yet more waiting….
