7 million Apple Watches just buried the competition – Canalys

Re: Now this IS interesting

That the battery would die in 2-3 years reflects none of my observations. My 2007 (original) iPhone lasted a full 7 years through 2014 before the battery started swelling. My 2009 iPhone 3GS is still my mother-in-laws phone, working fine in 2015 with its original battery. Certainly I haven't noticed in failures in newer ones. No reason why an Apple Watch wouldn't live for 7 years without changing the battery.

So keep in mind that while batteries *may* fail in shorter time than the ones I've observed - Apple does replace batteries of their old devices - unlike most of their competitors.

So that's why Apple sells 128GB iPads, cause no one needs the storage?

Judging by the NYC subways, not to mention every single airplane I've been on in the last 3 years, a ****load of iPads leave the house.

If you had ever used an iPhone, you'd know that it can be hooked up to a 1080P display as huge as you want, wired or wirelessly and you can use a Bluetooth keyboard for your input. But hey, hurling insults is more fun than those pesky facts, huh?
