I also ditched my apple watch.

Even when working out I didn't really bother using it to track my workouts. Going to the gym is the only thing that mattered.

For checking the time and apps? I have my phone in my pocket at all times...

Charging it was annoying in my experience, if I didn't wear it for 1 or 2 days, when I wanted to wear it, it was dead...

But I know some people that actualy take advantage of it, so it depends.

If battery lasted a whole month, I would probably reconsider. But honestly I do without just fine...



I use my watch a lot to unlock things and pay for things. It is weird how much more I use it than my phone now (which can do all those things also, but is usually in my pocket and not on my wrist).
