Apple Watch Series 4

I own the Apple Watch Series 4 44mm Aluminum.

Overall review:

• It's just a watch. Nothing fancy, and nice to have.

• Most things you can already do on your phone

  • But my phone is already a distracting device, so let's limit me even accessing it

Common Uses:

• Finding my phone

  • Now that I'm not attached to my phone, I misplace my phone more often, but I'm ok with that

Pros:

• Removes me from the addiction/distraction of my phone

• Easy access to a timer

  • I usually set timers so that I can help focus for a certain period of time

  • Notify myself when I need to do something in X minutes

    • For example: Remind me that I need to leave in 40 minutes

• Health tracking keeps me accountable when used with exercise

Cons:

• Requires an iPhone

• Enabling DND in watch, also enable it on phone. Alternative is to use Airplane mode

• Airplane mode doesn’t have similar DND feature if “Turn off in 1 hour”

• Glass seems to get easily scratched

Others Uses:

• Airplane mode

  • For when I want my watch on to track my health, but not be distracted by notifications

Apple Watch Series 4 vs Apple Watch Series 3

Apple Watch Series 4 44m:

• Larger screen size

• Can fit more text on screen

• Easier to read notifications

• Thinner, and personally I find it more aesthetically better looking
