Peppermint Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 I saw an article that Target will now be carrying the apple watch (as well as the iPads, etc.) and I guess BB is too. So I hope there will be a chance for a gift card w/purchase. [emoji16]
rwking75 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 A VERY expensive Beta product. Don't expect discounts on this, maybe a Apple gift card on it. This is still very much a 1st generation release item so Apple won't discount it for Black Friday.
Brad Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 You can already get discounts on some models of the Apple Watch. For example on eBay Deals today they have a $599 model for $519: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-Watch-42mm-Stainless-Steel-Case-Black-Sports-Band-MJ3U2LL-A/401008393450?hash=item5d5df67cea Free shipping and no tax for most. So there are deals available now and so I'd expect deals on BF as well. Last year eBay was a great place for deals on iPads & iPhones during November. That should be the same with the watch this year I'd guess. 1
Kanyon71 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 I'm really thinking about one for my wife, I got her a FitBitHR but have been thinking about getting her something a little more full featured. I have looked at some of the Android Wear ones but we have a lot of apple gear so figure that may be better for her. Not my sort of device but she may like it. 1
Peppermint Posted October 12, 2015 Author Posted October 12, 2015 Thanks Brad. It's for my 16 year old so I'm looking for the cheapest $399 version and hoping there will be a gift card offered somewhere on Black Friday.
gatorburg Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Can a Apple watch work on a Samsung Galaxy S5? I can not find anywhere a Samsung smartwatch every store I go into is no longer carrying smartwatchs.

If she wanted to use the GPS on the Apple Watch while running, she has to take the phone with her. Otherwise, it'll work as a pedometer and heart rate meter. (calibrate first.)

My wife has been looking at the fitbits recently and maybe there's something that's a FitBit, plus more. I haven't really done any research on them, but if anyone has a resource for Android-compatible wearables, that'd be awesome.

I need to see how big it is to see if she will wear it.If she wanted to use the GPS on the Apple Watch while running, she has to take the phone with her.

Kanyon71 Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 FitBit makes another one more advanced past the HR, or there's another Android-compatible product?Ya the larger FitBit one I think is called Surge. I'm pretty sure the Motorola Smart watches are all android compatible. Google also sells different ones on the Android Wear store. Should give you some options.
queenkishaa Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 There are smart watches for galaxy phones. The are called galaxy gear s,my husband wants one so I need to do more research. I do know that you can't make phone calls.
