    It’s an eight year old smartwatch. I feel like most of the target audience already has a newer model.

      Now I’m curious what the newer models are for. Isn’t it essentially a watch with notifications and buttons for music?

        Apple quickly pivoted it to a health tracking device. newer model have even medical grade ECG, blood oxygen level, fall and crash detection, etc. plus the usual activity tracking (steps, calories, workouts)

          Are there any good non-Apple equivalents for health tracking? Something that does pulse-ox for example, but isn’t stuck in the walled garden.
