I recently purchased the RingConn to better track my sleep. While I use a Series 6 Apple Watch to measure my exercises, I turn it off between sessions so I don’t have to charge it daily. I like the RingConn because i can leave it in Airplane Mode all the time to avoid Bluetooth Pollution to my body. Then each morning I place it in the recharge case, turn on Bluetooth just long enough to synchronize the new sleep data then turn the Airplane Mode back on and put the ring back on my finger. Hope if Apple does come out with a ring they implement this sort of non Bluetooth Mode for our bodies to stay Bluetooth free as much as possible. Bad enough needing Bluetooth from the watch when it’s on. Also, unlike Oura, RingConn is a subscription free ring.

The price is really about $5k. While I could afford it, I’m not interested in paying that much to be part of an experiment. I prefer my 1TB iPhone 15 Pro Max and 2TB M1 13” iPad and no MacBook. I use a base M2 Pro Mac mini for zoom and TV second and third channels next to a 65” 2022 QD-OLED SONY A95K TV with Cable, Roku and Apple TV options. That’s it.

I’m probably too old (77) to understand the attraction of AVP.

Why is everyone ignoring the M3 and M3 Pro Mac minis?

I know this wont happen but I dream that This is Apple’s chance to drop the watch altogether and exit that market. It is by far the worst Apple product ever. I’m embarrassed for Apple. I’ve tried and given up on several models, most recently the Ultra 1. Obnoxious phone/watch integration and by the time I turn off 1001 unwanted naggy intrusive “features” there’s little value for the price. Excuse me while I search Apple support forums to figure out how to disable this screeching beeping crisis alarm signal because I bent my wrist too far at the gym. The Apple Watch “experience” is trash. Unpopular opinion but surely I’m not alone. 

You obviously don’t understand the importance of the Apple Watch in the Apple Ecosystem. People are switching from Android to iPhone so they can wear and use an Apple Watch. It’s Apple’s Tail waging it’s Dog. Did you know that the Apple Watch is the world’s most popular watch? Not just the world’s most popular SmartWatch.  The world’s most popular watch full stop.

iJustine said she was invited to New York for the event And that she was planning on flying over there for it. Anybody else heard this from anybody else?
