Usually when apple has spoken it eventually comes true. Where are your floppys? How many times have you used non-USB keyboards or mice the last 15 years? How many CD's/DVD's have you used in your computer lately? APPLE HAS SPOKEN! :)

The mid range apple watch has about a dozen "versions", only two of those have a 4 figure price...

On planet earth, the mint condition collectors edition even go as far as 50000 nowadays...

Original ipods from 2001 are more expensive now than your 2001 watch. Think about that for a second.

In what cave have you been living that you haven't heard a single good thing about the last iphone? You're replying on a tech blog that LOVED the new iphones and almost everyone who has them loves them, but somehow you haven't heard a single good thing about them? They call that being selectively deaf...

Some birkin bags are $150000 (there are "cheaper" ones, I know), but really, you think the craftmanship and the fact that it's made in Europe somehow makes it worth that? It's a piece of stitched leather...
If you don't see the difference between what Apple is selling and what Lenovo is selling then you are seriously…

so you can afford a 2500 mac pro, but a 350 watch you can't afford?

So glad you've used it extensively and did a comparative study on finger thickness so that you can inform us about this glaring issue. Oh wait, you didn't!

Lol, your comment is physically and emotionally taxing and isn't nearly as glamorous as you think :p

How the hell with this be obsolete in a year and a cheap casio knock-off won't? It'll still tell the time... It'll still do all the things it did when you bought it first. And yes, the battery may run out but then you can get a new battery installed (just like in the casio).
Yes, technology progresses, but a watch…

yes, to facetime...

When the MBA came out the exact same points were made, "it's underpowered", "it doesn't have enough ports", etc. Yet it sold like hot cakes, not because all those clients have "more money than sense", but because for a lot of people sheer portability is way more important than brute power. I initially thought (and…

I usually do ask the same thing when I get into a discussion with them :) (the same for the anti-android crowd)

Yes, it costs WAY more to manufacture the gold case than it does the aluminum or stainless steel ones, Aluminum is really easy to shape, steel is a bit harder, but gold needs very high temperatures on the one hand, is very soft on the other (so can easily break again if you're not carefull) etc. Gold is an extremely…

I get that you don't like gold, I don't get how the fact that a colour option that doesn't interest you somehow makes you unhappy...

How the hell is a macbook with plenty of internal storage and a complete desktop OS "essentially a pretty looking chromebook" when a chromebook is just a thin client?

90% of people doing actual work on a computer only do writing documents and doing excel sheets :p

no word on the 480p FaceTime camera? I mean, 480p is horrible, am I the only one realizing this?

the fact that cheap watches exist doesn't make it any less generally known that luxury watches are expensive... and that gold watches are luxury watches

Same goes for every other piece of jewelry or expensive watch ever...
