Apple Watch reviews are out, and here are my take-aways from them:

  1. It’s a first-generation Apple product, so it’s fundamentally flawed in some notable ways, and most people should wait for the next version.
  2. It’s a first-generation Apple product, so it’s also incredibly well-made and has a huge amount of promise.
  3. No one really knows if people actually want smartwatches and what we’ll want to use them for.
  4.  I’ll probably still buy one, because I make poor choices. However, any question as to what “tier” I’ll get has been answered – it’s definitely not worth the asking price for anything better than the Sport model.
  5. The Verge’s web team is ridiculously talented.
