Anyone getting one of the upcoming smartwatches?
Now that they are rapidly becoming common thanks to fucking apple all sites that carry smartwatches are pretty much sold out.
>inb4 not /g/
I will admit they are more /fa/ than /g/ but if you are talking to someone and you get a call or text, you can turn that shit off with your watch and not be as rude or interrupting as taking out your phone to do it.
Did they already fixed the battery issues and the issue of not having the time always on the screen?

Shall I remake this thread into "smartwatch thread"?
I just don't see the benefits. I already feel like a slave to my phone without adding another thing to look at and charge.

In this thread we laugh at those who fell for the laptop meme
>>57763829
The desktop is dying and nothing you say can stop it.
It's being replaced by laptops, tablets, and smartphones and nothing you do will prevent this.
The age of the desktop is starting to end.
Deal with it.
