Bit too expensive for me.
I normally do not open up any of the original accessories that come with the retail box. Easier for me to sell In future.

Am looking at such simple 3rd party cables. I assume since it states 2.5hrs to full charge a Apple Watch, its prob only a 5W.

For me I don’t recommend to use chiong cable or charger, will damage the device as they don’t pass proper QC.

I was like you back then.

But I've soon came to realize how much "extra" can you sell with "untouched accessories"? $20 more?

Most who buy used don't really care tbh. Some will even try to lowball you by saying "can give me cheaper? they don't want accessories" 🤣

imo just use & sell as it is when it's time.

Chiong as in Apple but not Apple, right? I think those from reputable brands should still be alright, though I've not tried that with my AWs, only iPhones...

But you do have a good point there. (y)

Reputable brands still ok la.

But original Apple still the best.

For lightning cables there are many good 3rd party brands out there.

But AW charger don't have much knowledge since it's quite a niche market to begin with as most people don't need a 2nd charger & use the one that is shipped with.

MTL! 🤣🤣🤣

I'm using 3 in 1 Belkin. So I have the luxury to not use my JSKM braided aw charger that comes with the AWU.

Plus i hooted a spare apple charger to put in office back when I owned S7. So all covered 🤣.

yes, the watch will intelligently know that once you lower your wrist, it will return back to the home screen/ watch face.

@我要买GTR

i feel that the UNIQ Strova strap is a bit hard as the band is not flexi... u feel the same? using some cheap SS band, its flexi so not feel hard. and it not easy to slot in & out too... but i try with my AW5, its easy in & out.. i think AWU slot is smaller...

i think these straps are officially made for 42-45mm but is also able to fit 49mm later.. hence the reason why the slot in and out is not as "smooth" for awu as compared to the other models..

actually my nike official sport loop 42mm also got this prob..

Mine slots in easily without effort, vice versa removing. But for sure you won't get the seamless connection like AWU 49mm straps (Ocean/Trial/Alpine) as this band is made for 42/45mm as well.

What SS band are you comparing it with? I believe most similar link bracelets like Nomad also similar level of rigidity, you can only bend inwards, outwards have limited movement.
