One of the few people I have seen wearing an Apple Watch regularly is a neighbour of mine, a (currently) stay-at-home mother. I haven't asked her how she likes it. Maybe I should. I know people like to bash it, but as many have said it's a very personal device. Some people love it, some hate it. In my opinion those who bash it publicly are morons, they are doing a disservice to those who might like it but are not trying it out because the "experts" do not like it.

On the topic, I would love to replace my Fitbit1 with an Apple Watch. The Fitbit experience is… lacking the "whole experience" becaus of the missing ecosystem integration. Also, it's way too sensitive even though I have set the sensitivity setting to the other extreme. I have almost 100 "steps" before I get up from bed, and oftentimes I have reached my 10k goal when I have been washing my hands when I'm back home from work.
