Apple smartwatch may come in various forms

It's going to have to be more stylish than the current crop of smart watches before I'll wear one.

However, I still want to own a black coloured Kreyos...

On topic, will Apple copy the indie guys?
 
Apple Inc plans to launch smartwatches with multiple screen sizes and designs this fall, the Wall Street Journal on Friday cited a person familiar with the matter as saying.

I'm not sure I understand?
Apple, is giving an option?
 
Haven't worn a watch in 25+ years so I'm not in the market.
 
The first one who will produce a smart watch with some life saving features, blood pressure and blood sugar level monitoring will have a captive market.
 
I can't understand the fascination with smart watches. I am sure Apple are interested in wearables in general, but smart watches will never be anything but a very small niche accessory market.

Somebody once said similar things about personal computers :)
 
I think there is definitely a place for smart watches. The problem is you need to focus on the design of the watch more than anything else so people can wear it as a normal watch (fashion accessory) with some integrated features.

If Apple can get the design right then it will be a hit.

Problem is coming out with one design that will appeal to the masses. Apple's brand loyalty will only get them so far when it comes to something as personal as a watch. You buy a phone looking to replace it after a couple years but it's going to be hard to convince people to feel the same way about their watch.
