The news of the bitten apple is focused these days on the Apple Watch, and it will be there for quite some time especially when it starts in staggered launch in new countries. Much has been said about it, about its characteristics, its functions, accessories, etc. but little has been said about the two available sizes, 38 and 42 mm, a difference that, although minimal, can determine in some users who have chosen or not the right choice.
With the Apple Watch, size does matter
From 9to5Mac Dom Esposito has made a video comparison of these two sizes using the Apple Watch Sport and his conclusion, personal, is of great help to us at least until we can test an Apple watch in Spain.
In this case, two Apple Watch Sport, one of 38 mm silver with white strap and another one of 42 mm in space gray with black strap, both, as you know, built in aluminum and Ion-X reinforced glass screen, very resistant as we have already seen.
Inside the box we will find the sports version of the watch Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),In my opinion, the most attractive as well as being the most economical, a 2 meter magnetic charging cable, a 5W power USB adapter, the Sport band in the chosen color (with an «adapter» for the configuration of different sizes) and a quick start guide. Espósito emphasizes a detail: where are the traditional stickers of the bitten apple? Indeed do not look for them because you will not find them.
Returning again to the subject at hand, in the case of Apple Watch it seems that "size does matter." Esposito has a wrist that he himself defines as "too big" with a diameter of 175mm, so the 38mm watch is too small for him or, rather, the 42mm model is much more comfortable.
Therefore, and although it could be quite logical, in addition to the fact that we like one size more than another, it is convenient that we pay attention to the size of our wrist when choosing a Apple Watch 38mm or 42mm. In my case, for example, that I am rather a small wrist, the 42mm model could look too big, in fact, I am sure of it, just the opposite of what happens to Esposito in 9to5Mac, but I imagine that there will be people with "privileged dolls" who can choose indistinctly between one model or another based simply on which one they like the most.
