What watch band you buy to match with SS Gold? SS Gold is nice

Agree lol. I was looking at ceramic and ss gold. However.., at ceramic price range might as well buy Hermès edition already. I ended up with ss gold and I feel it’s so beautiful.

In the end I settled for a 2nd hand SS Gold Series 4 with Milanese Loop and AppleCare+ as I don’t care too much about Always-On Display.

Loving it so far been about two weeks and I have already collected 4 other bands, jialat! 😩

All stainless steel comes with cellular. Haven’t sign up number share because I got iphone ipad both using same line. Think I will go sign up tomorrow.

Noob rah Starhub. I got iPad Pro with multi sim so I can’t sign up for number sharing for my Apple Watch. Wtf.

My only choice now is to cancel multi sim and get another separate line for my ipad which doesn’t make sense to me. My Starhub plan is 90gb per month

do you use homehub? they provide a mobile bb sim, but only 1 GB data limit.

why not just use hotspot when u need internet?

I really heavily on mobile data. Hotspot speed is slow for ipad. Like 5-10mbps. When use SIM card is 100+ mbps. I don’t use Home hub... my only choice now is to get another data plan for ipad ... but that option is costly and not worth for rm

Still deciding between Stainless Steel or Titanium. So hard to choose.
If you like glossy shiny SS. Gold ss is nice.

I had my share of it. So this year I went titanium. Just nice pull out my gen 0 steel bracelet. They looks perfect for each other. Here’s the shot

Which is why Apple should have release titanium link bracelet. The colour and finish of the link bracelet doesn’t even match the titanium body of the watch.

Color is close. I’m not sure if you see the photo properly. Finishing if it’s not close. I don’t know what are you looking for.

Even gen 0’s finishing where first bracelet version is first paired up with is SS shiny on this brush finishing.

I"ve been running Watch OS 6.1 beta 2 since this am. Stable. Battery life definitely seems much better. With Watch OS 6.01 I had to switch off the mobile data, switch off raise to wake but keep alway on screen on, to get through the day.

Now with 6.1 beta, I've got mobile data on, raise to wake on, always on screen on .. so far down to 76% after 7 hours. Previously, I would probably be down to 50%.

Lets see how by end of the day .. and I will report again on how its like ..

Perhaps 6.1 will improve the batt life. Currently 6.0.1 is similar to 6.0, battery draining quite fast. But I have noise app active (constantly using the mic) and running on a Series 4.

nice hope it’s really improving battery life.

Dude can you do me a favour help me test something.

Prior to WatchOS 6. When I sleep and track I turn on airplane mode. So I don’t get notification and vibration during sleep from calls and notification.

Ever since watchos6 onward. Might still be a bug. With airplane mode on, I still get calls coming in with vibration when I sleep despite turning on airplane mode on the watch.

I noticed it’s still connected to phone’s Bluetooth. Which previously it doesn’t.

Are you able to test if it’s still rings call from phone thru Bluetooth when it’s on airplane mode? Many thanks man
