Apple chief Tim Cook says the Watch’s battery will last 18 hours, which he adds should be long enough for most people to get through the day (and that is from a guy who claims he gets up at 4:30am).
Anticipating many questions on battery life, Apple has given the topic its own information page, which notes that the 18-hour estimate includes “90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of app use, and a 30-minute workout with music playback from Apple Watch via Bluetooth”.
That includes details such as 3 hours of talk time, 2.5 hours to fully recharge and a 72-hour “power reserve” mode so that it can still tell time. The phrase “actual results will vary” appears eight times on this information page.
These figures all relate to the smaller 38mm model. The larger of the two Watch sizes will last slightly longer, as it has a bigger battery (and a bigger screen).
One more thing — an extra MagSafe charger will cost $29. Which brings us to…
Pricing:
Yes, we knew the basic aluminium Watch Sport would start at $350. Since September, many had speculated about a $10,000 price tag for the gold-and-sapphire version. But that turned out to be just the starting price for the Watch Edition: few predicted that the top-of-the-line model with its “modern” gold buckle strap would cost as much as $17,000.作者: aimei 时间: 2015-3-10 09:16
