My Apple Watch Series 2 shopping experience

Apple watch series 2 buy store

During the weeks leading up to the keynote, I did not stop commenting on rumors and leaks from the apple watch. We said it would have a GPS and a barometer, among other things. Which would be thinner and more powerful, with more battery etc. Some elements turned out to be true and others not, for now. Some readers of Applelizados commented or even wrote to me on my personal Twitter account (@josekopero) to tell me to indulge and encourage me to purchase. I wasn't sure, but I really wanted to. When the keynote arrived I felt a little disappointed, I expected more. I also entered the web at the time it was updated to reserve it. Between the price hike and the reorganization of the catalog, I got a bit upset and decided not to.

That's when I refused to buy it and started giving reasons not to buy it. Those users who can really use it, yes, totally recommended. But on its own, the Apple Watch is a whim, a pretty watch, and a fashionable and expensive accessory. Well, nothing, that I have convinced myself to obtain it and I will tell you about today's experience through the Apple Store when buying it. Very attentive.

The Apple Watch dilemma to choose

My options were clear. Almost white silver tone aluminum, and 42mm in size. The bracelet was made of silicone, although he had not yet decided on the color or the Series he would buy. Due to the novelties that Series 2 brought, perhaps it was not convenient for me to spend those € 100 extra but… it is the new one. The other has the dual-core processor too, but it's the old one with the new hat.

And I, who am aware of Apple news by heart, could not opt ​​for a model that was not the newest, so as not to feel guilty later. This is what I was telling you today about the Apple's strategy of "for 100 euros more", and the famous "well, since we spent ...". In the end, between some things and others I have opted for the new one, although I was afraid it would not be available yet in the Apple of Murcia. I thought: if it is, I buy that one, and if it is not, then I opt for the one with € 100 less, the Series 1, and that I save myself.

Indeed, it was, and the color and size that I wanted. Final price € 469, neither one more nor one less.

Details and highlights of the transaction

Warranty? Two years. They haven't told me anything about Apple Care or weird stories. Two years and period, yes, disappointment comes on the strap. I have chosen the white one, it seemed to me the most beautiful and yes, it is. The problem is that this is yes or yes. They do not allow you to choose another at the time of purchase. If you want more, you can buy them separately.

Despite everything, it has been a very good shopping experience. It is not the first time, it is customary for us to go to the store to take something and open it right there. As it was my first Apple Watch, they had to explain everything to me, although I was already prepared in terms of the theory of the operating system and its novelties. I open the box, I take it out and put it on. Comfortable, safe, pleasant. In a matter of minutes it was as if he had always worn it. It doesn't seem like something delicate to me, but something nice and good that I wear on my wrist.

The employee who attended me had a lot of humor and was very nice. This is typical of the Apple Store. They know very well how to make you feel good while you are there., and do not think wrong. First he asked me about the model I wanted, I told him the white one. "Ah, very good taste, that's the one I have," he said as he raised his wrist. Since yours was the first generation, we have compared the screen and other items. And I have to say that it shows a lot.

Do I recommend the Apple Watch Series 2 now? If you really want it, yes, if no, no. As simple as that. For more specifications and details see other posts about the watch. Thanks for the encouragement of those who follow me and write on Twitter and a greeting to all Applelizados readers.
