Days ahead of the Apple Watch pre-order start Apple releases four video tutorials explaining key Apple Watch features.
Apple has just released four Apple Watch tutorials as a little Easter present. Now Apple fans can get a neat first look at how to operate the main features of the Apple Watch ahead of the pre-order start next week. The first video is a general guided tour giving an intro to the Apple Watch.
The Apple Watch Messages video explains the functionality of messages and notifications.
Another 2 minute video gives an introduction to the Apple Watch faces.
Lastly a 1 minute video explains the Digital Touch features.
The Apple Watch starts at $349 for the small case (38mm) Sport Edition. The Apple Watch Pre-order starts on April 10 in 9 countries (Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, the UK and the US) and the Apple Watch ships on April 24.
Apple Watch introduces a new design and iOS-based user interface created specifically for a smaller device. Apple Watch features the Digital Crown, a new way to scroll, zoom and navigate fluidly, without obstructing the display. The Digital Crown also serves as the Home button and a quick way to access Siri. The Retina display on Apple Watch features Force Touch, a technology that senses the difference between a tap and a press, providing a new way to access controls within Apple Watch apps.
The Apple Watch introduces the Taptic Engine and a built-in speaker that together discreetly enable an entirely new vocabulary of alerts and notifications you can both hear and feel. Apple custom-designed its own S1 SiP (System in Package) to miniaturize an entire computer architecture onto a single chip. Apple Watch also features Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 4.0 to pair seamlessly with your iPhone. Besides the smart watch features the Apple Watch keeps time to within 50 milliseconds of UTC, the universal time standard when synching regularly with the iPhone.
