Unless your phone has same battery live I never see the point of longer battery life on the watch if something gets charged daily anyway
Phone charges while driving.
If you charge watch at bedtime and forget overnight sleep function becomes useless, therefore you must remember to charge when sitting watching tv or something ealse when not moving around
yeah so can a watch, watch powerbank is so tiny too. decent reason, but still doesn't justify only couple days longer battery. unless it is substantially longer like 1 or 2 month, i consider them all the same thing.
I take it off before the shower so while I’m getting ready for work it replenishes.
If you get the Apple Watch you need an Apple phone to pair it with.
yep, having tried both eco system, it is really night and day difference….
watch + earbuds + phone.
Officeworks price beat ?
Yep
OW currently selling Apple watch Series 9 GPS 45mm @$649
With price beat it would come down to $598.4
Certainly worth doing.
Did just this today - $598.40 for the Apple watch Series 9 GPS 45mm from the Perth store after asking them to pricebeat Costco over the phone.
You want to put up a link.
Telstra has this watch for 629 (99c cheaper) and cellular for 659

Check this, i bought couple of weeks back cellular version series 9 45mm
that's better then the one I linked too, great stuff
The deals I’m listing are cheaper than the cellular versions for the same screen size
Cellular is
$609 for 41mm compared to $589.99
$659 for 45mm compared to $629.99
I can’t see the $629 non cellular.
@try2bhelpful: The one tou mentioned was gps only…the one i sent link has gps + cellular. You can double chk for gp+cellular series 9 for 41mm is 729.99 in costco
@back2vg: I also managed to price beat the Telstra deal with officework. But had to go to 4 officework, before one allowed me to price beat. Was Cranbourne Officework.
@back2vg: I'm not listing the Costco GPS and Cellular as a deal. However, I wonder how many people would use cellular on their watches given you need an additional esim.
Does Telstra sell a non cellular version of the Apple watch?
Debating between this and the Garmin Venu 3, battery life on the Venu seems to be the big winner for me.
