I expect this will be an iFlop, except for the iFanboys.
Not many people wear watches anymore. I haven’t in years. There’s no point in it, when you’re carrying a phone around, and looking at so many other devices that has the time displayed.

Pip Boy ping. Always wondered why they didn;t just make an arm band with an iphone holder as a fashion accessory.

Tech is becoming too good for their own good.
Why buy a new phone when your old one is good enough or a gadget watch when all the functions are being included for free on your phone?
Now if they came up with a gadget that let me see near or far without my glasses, that I would buy.

At 2.5 inches, this looks like the seventh generation Nano for the wrist. It should have Bluetooth 4.x or 5.0 with easier and faster pairing/handoff. Since WiFi requires too much power for the size, Bluetooth will hopefully substitute for some of WiFi’s functionality.

LOL...with one finger, too!
It could get ugly.

According to the WWDC, no need to type. You can tell Siri what to send as a text now but they added the ability to also send a quick voice memo file integrated right into the message app. It’s Gesture and voice controlled.
Don’t think that Apple hasn’t paid attention to the issues of texting and driving. They have.

The younger GPS generation was lost when their screens went dark. Their brains had been wired from early childhood to be led and directed from point to point by computer-generated voices and pixel arrows. By the time the grid went down most people were incapable of learning to navigate by map and compass, and anyway, almost nobody had them. I was the rare exception, already equipped with a Silva Ranger compass, my Appalachian Trail topo maps, guide books, and my previous summers experience hiking the Trail.
As soon as the power was lost, there were no more computer-generated dropdown menus full of helpful suggestions to the traveler. No Google, no Bing, no search engines at all. The screen addicts couldn't light a fire with an entire pack of matches: Id seen them wasting match after match in the rain. The concept of dry kindling wood had escaped their educations entirely. After their matches and butane lighters were used up during the first winter, they froze to death, providing gear, clothing, and eventually the meat from their very bodies to the more ruthless and better prepared. Id seen their campsites, and Id seen their bones. Id worn their boots.

That’s the model I want - not the hip-hop bangle in the other picture. Next, I want the flying moon car.
