Apple Watch Records Over One Million Pre-Orders On The First Day


Almost 1 million people in the bought an Apple Watch on the first day of pre-orders, forcing many of the models to go out of stock for months.



Slice Intelligence, a shopping research firm, said that data from receipts indicated that 957,000 people in the US ordered the Watch.

Around 62 per cent of the shoppers bought the cheaper Apple Watch Sport, they said. That model begins at £299 in the UK, with the more expensive Apple Watch collection beginning at £479.


Most customers pre-ordered their Watches in Apple’s “space gray” aluminium cases, which represented 40 per cent of pre-orders. Stainless steel was the next most popular, followed by silver sliminium and the “space black” steel.

The average spend on Watches was $504 (£345), according to the data, and the average order was for 1.3 smartwatches.

The black sport band was the most popular strap, and represented nearly half of orders.


Few enough people bought the luxury Apple Watch Edition — which sells for between £8,000 and £13,500 — that the orders didn’t show up in Slice’s data.

Slice used data from 9,080 customer receipts to work out the data, which is focused solely on the US, and so it is possible that it could be skewed. Apple has said that it won’t publicly tell anyone how popular the Watch is, wrapping them up with other products when it reports its quarterly results.

War Of Watch: Android Wear Vs. Apple Watch


Apple has introduced its latest smartwatch, and within two weeks it's going to hit the market. On the other side, its competitor Google has its own operating system and major tech giants like Samsung, Motorola use it to run their smartwatches on it.


The reviews of Apple Watch has been very impressive, as it has a touch of both, an elegant piece of jewelry, as well as a bit of modern technology, but its not just the only smartwatch available in the market.

There are many other smartwatches equipped with Android operating system developed by Samsung, Motorola, Sony and so on. What's so special about these smartwatches? first of all they're bit cheaper than Apple Watch, and they come in with lots of variety.


The Apple watch is not just another piece of gadget, but it's a latest creation, as good as the classic timepiece has come again before us. Elegant designs with your choice of aluminum, steel or gold and it also comes in 2 different sizes: 38 mm for smaller wrists, and 42 mm for larger wrists.


If you are looking for an Android wear, than you can get some options, Apple Watch comes in a rectangular form, while you can get a round, or even a rectangle Android watch. There are some truly attractive watches by Motorola Moto 360 and Huawei. There are other Android watches too, but they just look like a nerd toy, rather than fashionable accessories.



Both these watches have one thing in common, and that is the major draw-back that both watches can face. There's no major reason to actually buy any of the these smartwatches, as there's nothing that makes these devices a must have device.

It's also said, that if you're an Apple fan, then you'll be more happier in buying an Apple Watch compared to Android fans buying an Android Wear, as Apple Watch is more compelling and work better than Android Wear.
