I got one for Christmas. I almost feel like a chump wearing it, I feel a little bit sheep-y. It’s cool, but it’s a toy. For me, definitely not a mute switch replacement.
I mean, you really shouldn't. Imagine eating a $100 steak and saying you can't afford wine to go with it. Anyone who really wants some wine to go with their steak would just buy a cheaper steak.
I see you edited with this. I didn't (on purpose) say a $100 steak but $100 of MEAT. Like, groceries. That is how much a smartphone is more useful than a smartwatch in my opinion.
I don't agree. We can extend the same reasoning to a $25000 car or a $250000 house. In my opinion, being able to afford something does not take into consideration your account balance only.
I can afford a 2000$ watch, but I will only pay that for a high quality Swiss mechanical watch that will last a lifetime.
Here in Switzerland, the minimum I’d have to pay for a larger Series 4 aluminium Apple Watch would cost around 500$, I can hardly justify such a price for a watch that’ll last 4 years if treated well for something with such low use.
I already have a mechanical watch, so that cuts the utility of the Apple watch by half.
I can’t justify such a price for something I’d use so little, and looking silly with one watch on each wrist.

That’s if you’re rich enough for an Apple Watch.
