What are the practical uses for this?

Fashion statement, but all watches are, really.

Gps and water proof, and a glorified Fitbit?

Any of you own one? What's the selling point?

so the "texting" feature of the apple watch is just holding it up to your face and talking into it?

It's got a number of pre-written short responses you can use to text as well. I use mine a lot, but I am often in situations where I can't pull out my phone.

If I bought one, how could I use it to cheat on exams instead of learning the material?

If you look like this, it completes your ensemble.

The first thing my phone shows when I touch it is the date and time. I'll never own a watch again rest of my life.

Watches are basically just jewelry fashion accessories now.

Can't argue with any of this. I have a nice watch, but I wear it very rarely. Only for formal occasions.

I gave my Apple watch to my wife. It was basically useless and I felt like a dork wearing it

I have 2 watches. A very nice expensive watch I received as an award through work which I rarely wear, and my every day watch I bought at Walmart for about $10. When the battery runs out every 3 years or so I toss it and buy another.

Why would you pay that much for a limited functionality iPhone with a 1" screen?

shite makes no sense to me.

I just got the nike edition series 2 and am loving it so far. Makes it a lot easier to use siri to set reminders or to send texts. Its not life changing though.

The one I have is an eco-drive, so I'm safe on that part. Titanium with a sapphire crystal, so it should (hopefully) last me a good while.

Lol....no. had a friend that worked for a jewelry store and got it half price, though. I'd never have dropped the actual amount on it without that.
