Apple Watch loses steam as global smartwatch shipments dropped in 2024
Apple watch is a material beauty, but having to charge it daily (unless you own the Ultra) spoils the experience. Maybe this realization has risen over the hype. I get almost a full week on my Fitbit (Sense v2), and it tracks my sleep quality in addition to the common sensors, notifications, and call features. It may not be as flashy, but it sure has more stamina. For me, the silent alarm clock with smart awake is beneficial. I like rejecting a call without having to approach the phone. I Google's acquisition of Fitbit would get people's attention away from Apple, but Google smothered the Fitbit catalog with their own Pixel models, ignoring some key marketing points of Charge and Sense models.

Apple Vision Pro gets Bono documentary for first feature-length immersive video
Of the the groundbreaking features that could be at display, with actions, sci-fi, and CGI, this is extremely underwhelming to their majority tech-savy customers who actually own a Vision Pro. This tribute could have waited for some other nearby memorial event. Maybe we need a gen-z and millennial on the board after all. I wonder if Bob Iger and Al Gore pushed for this.
