About a month ago, the Apple Watch was released and now it is at the hands of more than a million people around the world, many of us have dealt with it, whether we bought it, with a friend, or even presented in stores. So is the Apple Watch succeeded?

Failed success numerically
Did you know that the Apple Watch sold more in less than a day than all Android Wear watches in 2014 completely, and some estimate that in its first week it sold more than all smart watches from all companies around the world throughout the past year. These numbers are impressive and mean amazing, right? Apple chief Tim Cook mentioned this that sales were historic. Now evidences and even the president of Apple mentions an awesome sales force. But hey I have a question; If the Apple Watch has achieved "fairy" sales, why didn't Tim Cook mention the number ?! Why did Apple break its habit of telling us about its weekend sales? Apple products start selling on Friday, as Apple usually does, and then Apple issues a statement days later to tell us that it has achieved sales of such a million over the weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun). But now a month has passed and Apple is content with the phrase "unprecedented sales" without mentioning a number. Is it conceivable that if the numbers were really "fairy", would they not be mentioned by Apple, which loves to boast about everything? Or even remind investors to double the price of Apple's NASDAQ stock!

the secret: The Apple Watch surpassed any watch around the world in terms of sales, but it was more than the expectations of the statistical and analytical centers, so when you look at the forecast of sales of 4-5 million per month and then you find that Apple will ship 5 million hours until the end of June, according to some estimates, this means something. She crushed competitors and failed to live up to expectations.
High quality of the sensors

All watches have sensors to calculate the steps and pulse, but reports came that the pulse sensor, for example, shows efficiency and accuracy of up to 99% of the efficiency and accuracy of pulse measuring devices, which are impressive numbers. The same is true for the step sensor and even the watch’s own water resistance, which is wonderful in comparison to the fact that Apple stated that it is "water resistant, not waterproof." Apple has successfully opted for internal hardware parts.
Apple's layout failed

The Apple Watch is an example of an unprecedented inconsistency and misplanning for Apple, starting with Apple's announcement of the watch and that it will be the beginning of the year and this promise, which was soon delayed until the end of April, by the third of the year. In addition, it was unable to manage production lines and provide spare parts, which led to the collapse of the number of sales and the delay in shipping, which reached June. Then the company itself does not know when it will fix these problems, and the president of Apple said that they hope to provide the watch in new countries at the end of June. Can you imagine that a company the size of entire countries such as Apple and its manager "hopes" and does not know when the problems will be solved. Finally, some problems that occurred in the watch, such as that the pulse sensor does not work with the tattoo, which is logical, but the company remained silent after this news that it was not working, and then confirmed it as if it was surprised by this matter and began to study it. Despite Apple's success in outperforming competitors, the watch was an example of an unprecedented floundering of the company.
The price is high but it doesn't matter

The Apple Watch is the most expensive, and its frames, some of which exceed the price of the watch itself, but it seems that the strength of the apple logo cannot be defeated by the high price, despite the fact that the price of the watch is high, the production deficit has made some people accept to buy it from those who previously bought it at twice the price. If you thought that its price was high, now imagine that there was a purchase at twice that high price, can you believe that?
Few jobs

Although the watch may appear at first glance dazzling and has hundreds of features, those who bought it discover after days that it will only be useful in two things, viewing notifications, as well as fitness (movement and others). As for running applications on the watch and other things, it is difficult due to its small size. This does not mean that the other functions are not working but that you will neglect them over time and only focus with notifications like you own a Nike FuelBand and with notifications.
Acceptable battery

The battery of the Apple Watch is the lowest in smart watches, but with the passage of time and the transformation of basic use to notifications and following the steps, you will find that the watch continues with the day normally and sometimes a day and a half without the need to charge it. Of course, whoever answers calls from the watch and uses them to buy daily, hears audio clips and reads articles from the watch, it is not expected that they will last for a day, but these things are difficult with the size of the watch - except for listening to audio clips of course -
