After months of speculation and waiting, the
Apple Watch has finally been unveiled.
That's right, it's called the Apple Watch, and
not the iWatch, as the gadget has been
previously referred to. The device made its
debut alongside the iPhone 6 and the
iPhone 6 Plus on Sept. 9.
The Apple Watch is the Cupertino-based
company's first wearable device that enables
the wearer to check on Facebook updates
and access simplified apps without going
through the hassle of taking it out of the
pocket or looking for it inside a bag, which
is very convenient for those who like to
travel extremely light, or for those who love
to workout.
The final Apple Watch design which was
unveiled a week ago by Apple CEO Tim Cook
looks a lot like the renders that were
released in the weeks leading up to the
gadget's launch. It has a rectangular face,
one knob and one button.
The smartwatch comes in two sizes, which
are the 1.5 inch version and the 1.65 inch
kind. The watch is available in four basic
colors—silver aluminum, space black
stainless steel, space gray aluminum, and
stainless steel. The watch also has a special
edition line, and one can choose between
the 18-karat yellow gold or rose gold watch.
Apple is also offering an Apple Watch Sport
version for those who are not a fan of
metallic bands.
The Apple Watch comes with apps such as
iMessages, Health, Calendar, Mail, Photos,
Weather, and Camera Shutter button. It also
has the Apple Maps and Passbook that
includes the Apple Pay.
It is reported that the Apple Watch will start
at $350 when it is released in early 2015.
