Yeah it's pretty incredible how far we've come. I wasn't very optimistic about the watch back in the day because the processor was just too slow. It wasn't until I got my series 5 that it was quick enough to rely on. And of course the Ultra 2 is a beast.
the funny thing is: People put a clock in our smartphones so we don't have to wear a watch, but now they put our smartphones in our watches so we don't have to look at our smartphones
Having tried it and seeing the reviews, it actually seems pretty decent.... but then you remember the price and think naaaaaaaaa! Great video as always.

Miguel Guerrero For $700, you're paying for the Stainless steel. Also, this Watch is running version 1.0 of it's OS. Expect updates to fix some minor issues.
I have to say when you take everything in to account and being honest Apple Watch has is the best smartwatch to date. Can't denied the Apple put some thoughts behind it
Gerad Guitrez its not the best because it has an extremely similar functionality too the moto 360. But the moto 360 looks nicer (majority of people agree), has more customization options in the software and in the uk a stainless steel 360 with a leather strap costs just under 165 pounds and a stainless steel apple watch with a leather band costs 600 pounds. The apple watch may have the most street cred of all the smart watches out there but with all things considered its far from the best. (guy who sold his iphone 6+ for a oneplus one and moto 360)(use to like apple till i got my oneplus last month and saw the light)
Mr A bomb no. You are wrong. Everything it does is better than motto 360. Also it has many features that motto 360 simply doesn't have. Fitness and sensor are a huge example. Let be honest here and stop the blind hate because a product simply was made by Apple and not Google.
It's crazy how Apple always gets it right on the first try, and then when you compare the first generation of a product to now the NINTH generation of a product, it's sometimes hard to tell the difference, and yet the ninth generation still blows the competition out of the water. Awesome. Proud to be a shareholder.
Zackry Abnet UA-cam takes time to process the video to higher qualities. Some videos don't have this because the YTer has uploaded the video beforehand, and then scheduled a specific release time. MKBHD releases his video instantly when he's uploaded them :)

Thebignatedawg76 they just had a one day sale today for Moto 360's for $130. I tried to get another one, but they were gone before I could get one. I saw the sale on phonearena.
Very cool review ***** Mine watch just came in today. Going to do something on the i8 connectivity etc. Should be interesting! Always timely reviews... Keep up the great work.
By far the best reviewer I have found on the net/UA-cam. Very down to earth, honest and easy to understand reviews. Been watching your videos for some time now and felt I had to throw a compliment your way :) Keep up the good work
Is it me or is there a video glitch of a line re-appearing on the bottom throughout the video? Anyways, great vid and can't wait to see more of your content. Congrats on graduating!
Still don't get smart watches. My cell phone eliminated my desire to wear a watch. The freedom from not having another accessory for convenience was better trade off. Literally, the only reason I can see someone buying this is for status symbolism. Of course, the watch market is built of status symbolism anyway, so why it annoys me to see manufacturers diving into the smart watch category, it shouldn't surprise me. To each their own. Blow your money on what you wish.
Strikerage "status symbolism" You pretty much hit the nail on the head. Though it does give you more than the other non-smart watches that cost just as much, if not more.
Snowgoon901 Exactly, which is what makes me torn about it. I would actually love to wear a very stylish watch. It's fun to have that kind of accessory I suppose. And the geek side of me really gives me the urge to buy it. But I just can't justify the cost. To little features that a smartphone completely out does in every way.
Strikerage If you're in some situation where you get a very large volume of emails or something it's nice. I'm a full time student with a part time office job, I need to see all of my work emails and I get an email every time an assignment is graded. I don't want to be taking out my phone in class all the time, so it's nice. But I wouldn't recommend it to the average user. Using Pebble btw.
Strikerage When processors become very power efficient, and when new/better battery tech comes out, then we'll have smartwatches over smartphones .. they'll be standalone devices and the phones will become the accessory .. MARK MY WORDS!! THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING!
Yeah basically coz there's the apple brand there. And that is what costs the most. I have a lot of Apple stuff, not a fanboy, and not considering individual preferences, but who ever wants Apple over other stuff knows we have to pay for the brand first and then for the product.
eli heerter hahah and you are being nice. For less than that I bought a nice Audi. Or considering I'm a bike guy that would give you a wide choice on brand new bikes. For 17k i would consider if it could make me an espresso every morning. Or wipe my ass....
Apple Watch has come so far since it first came out. Imo, it was the best smart watch when it came out and it still is to this day. Series 5 completely out-paces any other smart watch
Thought i just watch the review on the 1st apple watch before I finalise my watch Ultra purchase. Seeing this in 2022, Apple was mad to have priced it at 700$. Such an overkill.
Outside the exam hall in my school there's a sign that says "No iWatches" I feel like punching all the teachers for doing that. First of all, I've had to say this many times, ITS THE APPLE FUCKING WATCH!! Secondly, the Apple Watch isn't the only smart fucking watch in the world. News Flash: Apple isn't the only company in the world! I feel like going in with my Pebble and when they say "No iWatches" I'm gonna say "Its not an Apple Watch, its a Pebble" I'm glad to get this off my chest, and no I'm not necessarily an Apple fan. Now, give me a moment, I'm just gonna smash my laptop every time I see the word iWatch on the Internet.
some people pay over $1000 for a watch. others pay over $50,000 for a car. Its the luxurious appeal anyway. it can tell time and look good doing so. thats what smart watches are basically.
So this doesn't make sense but a $25k rolex does? It's not supposed to be some revolutionary mind-blowing piece of technology. It's a fashion accessory that says "I'm wealthy". That's all. I really don't think it's that stupid of a purchase if you can afford one and really like it.
Thank you! At least this has more functionality than an overpriced Rolex. Even the most expensive Apple Watch doesn't come close to the price tag of a Rolex. But, people will bitch about anything and everything.
You can get a decent gaming computer for that much or a little more. The technology isn't there for high performance, but I suppose watch technology has to start somewhere, you have to take into account battery also. But if you have the money and you want one then get one.
Last week Apple announced Series X somehow today YT recommended me this video 😅 but I still watched it because it’s MKBHD.. one thing I can’t believe that Apple releases their first watch for 700$ and that too in 2014 bro that’s crazy
lol apple called it series 10, not X. And there wasn’t a Ultra 3, it is just the Ultra 2 in an new color. Also the watch he bought was the more expensive one since he bought the stainless steel with a leather band. At the time, if you bought an aluminum watch with sport band, it would only have cost you $269 or $299.
It really is fundamentally different. You can hold as long as you want without activating force touch or activate it right away. It's an interesting way to implement a "secondary click"
With Force Touch, you actually press harder into the display. With a long press, the amount of pressure doesn't matter, only the amount of time that one's finger is on the display.
rebekah172 Honestly, I don't think they will ever be "there". I fully understand the purpose of them, hell I own a pebble and I can't leave the house without it. I just think that their main purpose is such a basic function that it is way too hard to justify the price. Beyond notifications and fitness, I really can't see them excelling in anything else. Most of the "extra" stuff is much better and faster when actually using the phone. I believe we have hit the glass ceiling but of course I could be wrong (and I hope I am).
LarryNoir You could be right, a watch might not be what we need for wearable tech at all, in fact wearables might not be the right direction and my children will laugh at me for ever even thinking of owning a silly screen for my arm. :P
lol your comment has some shitty English. Anyway, some people just want a piece of jewelry. A lot of people who buy crazy expensive watches like that don’t even use them as a watch, they just like the look of it.
Great review! Only question: iFixit stated in their teardown that Apple is using a flexible plastic OLED display, rather than LCD. Second, it should be noted that the heart rate monitor works perfectly as long as the activity doesn't involve vasoconstriction (weight lifting); basically aerobic exercises only. Same is true even with chest strap monitors.
I dont like apple all that much but after this video i disliked Apple even more. The watch doesnt seem all that great, you can see Frame rate drops when hes scrolling so i dont know if the watch is in any way better than f.e. a moto360
That's data loading from the phone. The Watch uses a custom CPU and graphics core that is about equal to iPhone 4s. That processor chip plus the lightweight Watch OS means that it shouldn't be anything from the software itself that slows the device. It's more likely that the data that's loaded over Bluetooth isn't coming in fast enough, leading to stutters from separate info cards starting and stopping the loading process.
My friend has a Moro 360 & that watch lags like hell. It was so bad he couldn't even lift it up. & a lot of it does have to do with the phone itself but it's still no excuse for it not to be able to swipe anywhere
I really appreciate your fair and honest reviews. I love my Apple products, but am by no means a fanboy or sheeple. I only buy the things I need, and only go with Apple if I think it'll fit my needs. This review was in line with what I think about the Apple Watch: a neat accessory, but maybe not a groundbreaking as Apple was hoping. Thanks!
Here after they announced series 9. It's crazy how far this channel has come. Albeit, looking back, this is a great video for its time.

I have to say when you take everything in to account and being honest Apple Watch has is the best smartwatch to date. Can't denied the Apple put some thoughts behind it

some people pay over $1000 for a watch. others pay over $50,000 for a car. Its the luxurious appeal anyway. it can tell time and look good doing so. thats what smart watches are basically.
Tom a car is a necessity tho a watch isn't

But if you have the money and you want one then get one.
Last week Apple announced Series X somehow today YT recommended me this video 😅 but I still watched it because it’s MKBHD.. one thing I can’t believe that Apple releases their first watch for 700$ and that too in 2014 bro that’s crazy
lol apple called it series 10, not X. And there wasn’t a Ultra 3, it is just the Ultra 2 in an new color. Also the watch he bought was the more expensive one since he bought the stainless steel with a leather band. At the time, if you bought an aluminum watch with sport band, it would only have cost you $269 or $299.
Doesn't the apple watch have an oled display?
HopefulWriter14 yes. i don't know why marques thinks it has LCD.. a lot of people seem to think that but they're wrong.
dan428 he corrected it..just rewatch the video
Yash devgaria i just checked.. i'm not seeing any correction
Top left of the video when he talks about the display or maybe you are watching on a phone. As annotations don't appear on mobile phones
dan428 turn on annotations Sherlock
It's an oled display btw
Pretty ugly compared to the Moto 360
And to the huawei one is beautiful. I don't dislike the Apple smart watch, but it's so overpriced..like too much.
Doug Hawkes moto 360 or lg g watch r ( my favorite one) are way better simply because of watch faces and roundness
Not at all. Moto 360 is really ugly and the screen is pretty ugly too. That flat tire doesn't help
Doug Hawkes *Pretty* _small_...*Pretty* _expensive_...
itseman2 correction. not bulky* like 360
You Know you've made it when you have more UA-cam subscribers than apple itself. Congrats Mkbhd. I'm a huge fan
Overpriced is what that is.
***** They're even more expensive in the UK, absolute madness
***** Pebble is very good and its only 100euro
Poor, is what you are.
Herobrine52962 Definitely Poor.
Herobrine52962 why do you assume that because he thinks it's overpriced, he must be poor? Such ignorance
Here in 2024 with an Apple Watch Series 10 on my wrist
How is your watch?
@@Solunexxx amazing. Getting 24 hours of battery life and super fast
Upgrade form series 4
@@iJav Nice to hear, I will get mine in 3 weeks so I am curious
very professional! and again I love the music changes/experiment!
got the SE 2 last week and wanted to see footage of the original to compare, cant believe this was 7 years ago
Watching after Vision Pro Impressions video xD
same bro, instantly come to this video to see the first product of apple watch
For those who have used it, what exactly is the difference between force touch and long press
***** Is the difference significant? I'm really curious as it just seems like a gimmick to replace long press
It really is fundamentally different. You can hold as long as you want without activating force touch or activate it right away. It's an interesting way to implement a "secondary click"
So technically they can implement both? Have a normal press, long press, force press, long force press?
Sander Kamp Correct, technically.
With Force Touch, you actually press harder into the display. With a long press, the amount of pressure doesn't matter, only the amount of time that one's finger is on the display.
im going to watch it again when its 1080p :P
***** Hi 5
***** leave
me coming back after apple watch 10: nothing changed
Who’s here after they announced the series 9?🤓
Me
😂 weirdest UA-cam recommended video
I just kind of feel like wearable tech devices aren't "there" yet for the price, you know? I can't wait to see what they do with them though.
rebekah172 Honestly, I don't think they will ever be "there". I fully understand the purpose of them, hell I own a pebble and I can't leave the house without it. I just think that their main purpose is such a basic function that it is way too hard to justify the price. Beyond notifications and fitness, I really can't see them excelling in anything else. Most of the "extra" stuff is much better and faster when actually using the phone. I believe we have hit the glass ceiling but of course I could be wrong (and I hope I am).
LarryNoir
You could be right, a watch might not be what we need for wearable tech at all, in fact wearables might not be the right direction and my children will laugh at me for ever even thinking of owning a silly screen for my arm. :P
By the time wearable tech devices get "there", implanted technology will take it's place shortly after..
Morgan Freeman
I read that in your voice, Morgan Freeman.
I don't think I'll be getting any implants until I'm 100% sure they're safe however.
How do you feel now
Anyone else watching this on their Apple Watch Ultra 5 in 2026? 😄
Who's here after apple announced the series 10 and new black color for the ultra 2 ?
Who’s here after the announcement of watch 10 😂
Just realised, after watching this video, that the Apple Watch can be used as a viewfinder for the camera app. Only took me 8 years. Thanks Marques 😄
8 years later nad google recommends me the vid 😂😂😂
Algo let's gooo, watching video 2nd time after a long 7 years! (Subscribed him around 2016 lol)
"$700, that's as much as an iphone!"
This is no longer true, but for the wrong reason.
Did you expect iPhones to get cheaper?
I need to watch in 720p at least, coming back soon
***** Excuse the pun? ;)
Ben Critchley he needs to watch MKB in HD
Ben Critchley WHAT ARE U DOING IN MEH SWAMP SWAMP SE SE SE SE SWAMP SE SE SWAMP SWAMP
***** Im still on 480p
Who’s gonna buy a worth 17k watch...
That’s 17 pieces of iPhone X..
I like how you asked this 3 years later
Jhon Ace B Corial 17k is the gold
stamisme my other account No it’s 18k gold. And the watch can cost up to $17,000
Wait till this intellect hears about Rolex.
lol your comment has some shitty English. Anyway, some people just want a piece of jewelry. A lot of people who buy crazy expensive watches like that don’t even use them as a watch, they just like the look of it.
Just got the Ultra! Crazy how things change
Great review!
Only question: iFixit stated in their teardown that Apple is using a flexible plastic OLED display, rather than LCD. Second, it should be noted that the heart rate monitor works perfectly as long as the activity doesn't involve vasoconstriction (weight lifting); basically aerobic exercises only. Same is true even with chest strap monitors.
Here after they launched the series 9 and ultra 2
I saw the thumbnail and thought it was the review for the series 10 until I opened the video
That’s how much this shit hasn’t changed
"this hasn't changed"
Did you even look at the video bro 😭
It’s really awesome to see how his videos and quality grew over the years. I’m finally buying an Apple Watch 5 years after it was first released.
This video just popped up for me. After Series 9 was released. I wonder how those people who spend $17K on the first generation Apple Watch feel now 😅
They actually dropped software update support for the $17k model within 3 years 😂
Ayy my nigga MKB on that Tinder game
He's one of us
Whoa you better be black if your calling him the N word!
+Pink Pink Pink Hey bro YO YO YO.
Kodi DC Triggered
JOHNNYBOY FILMS omg
Just got one in 2023 and it’s perfect for me. I never had one before and it’s nice to learn
Does it do what the new ones do
I dont like apple all that much but after this video i disliked Apple even more. The watch doesnt seem all that great, you can see Frame rate drops when hes scrolling so i dont know if the watch is in any way better than f.e. a moto360
xSixtyyy Heard of software updates? They actually release them on Apple devices.
That's data loading from the phone. The Watch uses a custom CPU and graphics core that is about equal to iPhone 4s. That processor chip plus the lightweight Watch OS means that it shouldn't be anything from the software itself that slows the device. It's more likely that the data that's loaded over Bluetooth isn't coming in fast enough, leading to stutters from separate info cards starting and stopping the loading process.
SwiftHDX my moto 360 has had 3 updates in the past 3 months so yea
Matthew Robb so you understand that issues may be fixed. . .
My friend has a Moro 360 & that watch lags like hell. It was so bad he couldn't even lift it up. & a lot of it does have to do with the phone itself but it's still no excuse for it not to be able to swipe anywhere
I really appreciate your fair and honest reviews. I love my Apple products, but am by no means a fanboy or sheeple. I only buy the things I need, and only go with Apple if I think it'll fit my needs. This review was in line with what I think about the Apple Watch: a neat accessory, but maybe not a groundbreaking as Apple was hoping. Thanks!
Marques, daily wearable driver or no?
Hi!
Not maruqes, but i would say it's a daily driver if you tend to use alot of social media and are a heavy user.
FreeGame Nation Hi!
Phil Vierno You make reallllly god videos!!
Mathieu Deprat Yeah agreed. Curious if Marques will actually rock this on the daily.
