I think they were too excited over some innovation as a smartwatch. The battery's been a huge problem for almost every smartwatch, except for probably e-ink-based smartwatches like Pebble Watch. The battery's at a glacial pace for years now; they should've at least improved their watch to last days.
It does become problematic when I have to charge my LG watch in the middle of the day, especially considering that it takes much longer to charge than my phone itself.
I'm pretty unimpressed with smart watches, and I'm extra unimpressed with Apple's version, which somehow managed to do less.
I feel that Apple Watch is going for the image they're top-tier in terms of social hierarchy of monetary wealth. So, if you use Apple Watch, you're just one of those people with money. If they intended it to be truly viable, then they would've at least aimed for improving the battery technology or at least work around it (e.g. e-ink).
