Yo, I really appreciate your content. I found your channel a couple weeks ago when I was browsing accessories for my soon-to-come Apple Watch and I’ve been hooked since! Thank you for putting in that work and really going above and beyond when it comes to showcasing all the best options! Top 3 favorite channels on KZhead!
I’ve been wearing that RhinoShield case for about a year now, scratches have gone down to a minimum. Love it!
I've used a rugged armor case on my apple watch 7 for a year and it is very good looking, wraps around the watch and has held up beautifully.
I got a mifa strap once because I saw it in your video and you recommended it and since then no matter how many straps I've tried. I've always came back to that one. It's just the best strap I've used!
I got a Series 5 when it came out, waiting for the Series 8 to ship. Do you have any thoughts on metal bands? I discovered that the EKG reader got really wonky readings when I had a metal bands, so I've swapped to other bands. Also, woo, steel maces!
Not sure if you have a video for the watch SE 2 underway but will accessories of the OG SE work with the SE 2? Love your accessories videos, btw. I always use these as my buying guide.
I have the Spigen thin fit on my Apple Watch and it’s amazing. I’ve bumped it into so many walls and not one scratch. The case is beat up a little bit, which is the whole point
I’ve had a rhino shield and otter box on my s5 since day one. Watch still looks brand new…out side the case. Never had a screen protector, so far so good
This vid came out at the perfect time. Just bought my very first smart watch last night, the series 8
could you please make a video on the best chargers and screen protectors for the new iphone 14 pretty please?
For the Ultra, do you think it will take more of a beating? I play beach volleyball daily and my series 4 made it for years with a simple case. Should I still protect the ultra?
Try the Poplov leather band. Super flexible and amazing quality.
How about lugs/ connectors. Is pela still a thing? I couldn’t find lugs on their website. If not, which one do you suggest?
To how you spoke about the charging, what’s your opinion on the 5w vs 20w? I’ve seen with my iPhone 13 that it’s down to 96% battery health and I’ve been mostly using MagSafe.
Can you do a video on the whitestone domeglass screen protector? I think these are really good on curved displays like the Apple Watch’s
A +1 from Mifa leather watch straps, they’re the best! I own the black and brown ones. The leather is stitched to the silicone bottom so if you sweat a ton the stitching will lift the sweat and “deposit” it a bit into the leather, in case you’re curious.
Same. I have been using the LK screen protector for 7. It has been the best.
Thanks for the extra info Monty. Appreciate the hard work.
Just got my 1st warch, series 7. Saw this and said I'll never bang into doors. Wrong. Now have the LK protector. I feel much better now! Thanks
Hello Aaron, Do you have any recommendations for apple watch cases that do not wrap around the band? I like to swim with my apple watch and being able to take the case off to dry the watch and case without having to take off the band is a useful feature for me. Right now I am only using a cheap case from Walmart that feels cheap and has noticeable molding seams. any recommendations you can give would be greatly appreciated :)
Hi! Im seeking your expert advice sir, apple 2022 SE or series 7
Problem with my series 7 aw is the paint on the aluminium wearing down. I'm thinking is it's from my sweat when working out or just because it's dam hot where i live. Like the paint on my glasses wears out too.
Late to the party but please to see your review. Cannot find the Mophie charger through your link. Any other suggestions, please? Very much appreciate your efforts
Thank you for uploading and sharing the accessories
Using the Apple Magsafe chargers as well over multi chargers. Have you found a product that holds the phone magsafe flat? I hate dropping it on the nightstand every time I grab it.
Love the braided solo loop soo comfortable
YES! This is the one I needed! Thank you so much man!
I’m really hopeful that the screen protectors for the Apple Watch Ultra will work better, because of the flat screen.
I’d imagine there’d easily be tempered glass ones you can use w the flat screen
Hi ❤ the video. Question, I want a fake leather watch band, but have been unable to find one. Preferably in red, though black of grey is okay. If you can recommend a watch bands that would be appropriate with a little black cocktail dress, please let me know. In any case, thank you for the video!!!
My band (Apple leather link magnetic one) came apart on my Series 7 twice in the same day, and once it flew under a table, and the other time, across a floor, the sapphire screen survived just fine, but the fact that my Watch could’ve been gone right there is scary, even worse is that I bought a Rhinoshield screen protector 2 days prior, but Amazon sent the wrong one.
Damn! Cutest tech video I've seen. The way how your dog sits with you ♥
Have you found a decent charging stand for the ultra yet ? I had a cool looking elago Macintosh stand but the ultra doesn’t fit in it. Thought about one the cheap aluminum or wood stands but those are vertical and I really enjoy looking over in the middle of the night to check the time in nightstand mode (which I honestly thought was very gimmicky when I first heard about it) so if you find one please let us know. I did find on Etsy a cool minion looking one but it ships from china and it’s 35$+ shipping again if you find a cool watch stand for The ultra please share with us :)
The Nomad Titanium Link Bracelet is the best purchase I've made in forever. You should def check it out if you want something luxury, its a lil expensive but with the titanium watch, its amazing.
I appreciate all your hard work man!!!! Sending good vibes from Winnipeg!! I picked up an Apple Watch Ultra on Friday! I’m amazed they had exactly what I wanted in stock LOL!!! Cheers!
Do they make the LK films for series 7 38mm watches? I can't find that size using the link you provided.
Hope u see this, but what do you think of flolabs new apple watch screenprotector?
Do you think you can make one for the Apple Watch ultra
I like the mesh metal loops for dressing up my midnight aluminum watch, paired with a chronograph-style watch face.
Pls suggest bumper case and screen gaurd for i watch 7
That Mophie All-in-one powerstation is exactly what I need! But I can’t find it anywhere. Anyone else been able to find it?
I love the Monty captions 🤣 great touch 👌
OMG your dog is beyond adorable!! What a cutie!!
Thank you Aaron. 🙏🏻
How do you like the Milanese loop for a dress up band?
And the reviews of the new Apple Watch ultra ?
What do you think about the new Alpine Loop band? I'm thinking about pairing it with my "old" 7 45mm (event if i'm not sure about the color combo with a midnight watch) but I read some bad reviews. All influencers say it's good, almost perfect, but those who had to pay for it does not agree. So I'll trust your reviewer point of view!
I got the Alpine Loop and I like it. The fabric is soft and it seems well-made like any other Apple Watch band. It does take a lil work to get on and off tho since first you have to unhook it and the ridges get caught on the metal loop when pulling out. I do prefer the sport loop for working out like Aaron mentioned and I wanna try the new trail loop
@Such Is Life that's what I was afraid of 😉
@Such Is Life Performance based products usually don’t feel premium. Just look at all modern running and basketball shoes, they’re all made from synthetics. If you want premium, then go for the Milanese loop or leather bands. The Ultra is marketed towards athletes and on the spectrum of performance based materials, the Alpine Loop is on the higher end imo
I’m getting the Apple Watch ultra for my birthday January 🎉I’m so excited
Where can I find that neon green strap that you show??
Suggest you show other straps with the Ultra since you have a few. Monty should be getting “Isle of Dogs” royalties.
Love these videos. You’re always 100% right too. Respect
Yea look at the dog shaking 5.05 into the video, bet you love that too lmao
Thanks for the screen protector recommendation. Could not use your referral easily as in U.K. Genuinely hate the case I have on my watch at the moment. Not water proof any water e.g rain or washing hands and screen is useable. 😢
the mophie charger does not come up when you click the link - different mophie chargers come up but not one with an apple watch charger
For the best apple watch screen protector. I think that the rhino shield 3D impact screen protector is the best option. I've had it for a year and I only had to replace it last month when I accidentally took it off in the pool, but it wasn't damaged at all on either sides of the protector. I was just commenting this because I saw that you didn't even mention this product, so I gave it it's shine
Unfortunately i can't get it in India😢 i got the case from rhinoshield for my series 7 and now none of the screen protector is compatible with it
@@whiskergaming3097 oof
He mentioned it at 1:27.
Good review, thank you! 👏🏻
Your video was extremely helpful! My Apple Watch just broke 🫣due to not having a protective case around it. I also loved all the band ideas you reviewed. Thanks for the great content.
What happend to VAL?
Love the doggo! 😃👍
Dropped by in case any long term post video updates since a year ago but I guess the next videos are about Ultra 2 although I assume same products would apply
what happened to valery
Sad the product links ask me to change my country location on Amazon. Can you include Canadian links?
I bought a leather strap for my series 4.. a few weeks later it got caught on something and my watch went flying off my wrist. The face hit the concrete and it completely shattered the glass. Just be careful because the magnets aren’t super strong.
Love waiting for the "aboots" LOL.
I have accepted that Val is gone🙁. Fortunately, I still enjoy the videos and it’s great seeing more of Monte!
What happened to her tho?
I’m surprised you haven’t mentioned Groove Life products yet.
This video makes me want to get an your opinion on best apple apps for working out or Similar content! Please consider!!
The way monty looks at you makes me laugh and melts my heart at the same time 😉❤️, thanks for the awesome uploads 🇬🇧👍🏼
Monty is the best! Great video..
I had the series 3 aluminum and there was never any damage to the screen or body - the fabric strap (the sports loop) got grimy and discolored but I had it for years (funny when I got new Series 7, I dropped my old one in the Apple Store as I just told the sales person that I didn’t need to pay for an extra warranty-I was afraid that it would be damaged and I wouldn’t get the full turn-in value - luckily it didn’t). Aaron works out a lot - I do not. Or maybe he is a klutz!
I also never damaged these things, it’s not hard to not bonk it off walls, and it’s a watch it should look pretty cases are stupid on watches
@@juliet4093 where do you work? Because it’s real easy for me to damage anything on my wrists where I work.
@@juliet4093 I smashed my Apple Watch Ultra diving a sunken aircraft carrier off the coast of FL. So yeah, I need a case/screen protector. These things aren't as durable as they say they are. Case or not, I'd never take my Apple watch in a cave or cavern either. Even the Titanium + Kevlar composite weave drysuit my instructor uses there has wear and tear from pulling himself across the the limestone rock formations in places like Ginnie Springs. You might sit in and office and go for leisurely walks on paved trails, but people that live active lifestyles have already had issues with damage to the watch's casing and screen barely a year since it's release.
My old series 6 looks it was thrown in a cage with a tiger😅.
I would not recommend the rihnoshield. I have had one for over a year, and the case caused micro scratches on the watch.
Lol I’m currently using the left side screen protector and love it at 0:51
Nice video! Very useful.
Bring back val
Great video. Monty looks great.
Two things I want to share 1. Your dog is such a cute gentlepuppy man so calm and well mannered ... and did I mention how cute his is 2. I don't have an apple watch but I do relate with "my hands not working with my brain" as I have dinged my smartwatch so many times man it is insane Really amazing video absolutely loved it and especially the cute doggo there to assist you is just pure gold
What watch band is that tan one at 1:40??
You are best youtuber. 👍👍👍👍
Great video!, personally I've found Mayfair straps to have the best looking straps out of all so far, but looking to add to my collection!
Awesome channel 👍
❤ your dog Monty! Steals the show!
0:22 OK why is that so true like funny thing is my ultra I didn’t put a case on it so it does happen and when it does it literally takes off the paint of my wall or door frame and not even scratching on making the Apple Watch
Why is it that we always bump into something in the perfect location to scratch the watch face? I don't bump into stuff like that when I'm not wearing my watch!
Great review of Apple products, but Monty is the BEST part of these vid's, prove me wrong....😆
Minimalist protective setup. LK screen protector, Spigen Thin Fit Case. Barely noticeable! Apple Watch 9 41mm. Thanks Aaron!
Charging on the Apple products is NOT the most consistent. Anker and others have much higher quality capacitors. The hardware/software within the Apple product provides the great experience. I have a 90 watt 3 USB Anker alongside every brick Apple offers. I reach for the Anker every time.
wow. that puppy was just sitting and listening to him more attentively than a random guy would do
Bring back Val please she helped with your pronunciation
Your video is 😎! So is Monty 🐕... ✌🏾
Monty is a chad
Your shirt link don’t work 🙁 also your twitter account isn’t active since 900 days 🙁 I really like your work and would love to see new videos on twitter 😉
2024. Can you do an update on this video??
Get a stainless steel watch with sapphire. Over 4 watches no damage.
it's not pure sapphire though it is better.
Companies like Catalyst should have already had a case made for the release of the 49mm. I’ve always had a catalyst case on every series Apple Watch I’ve owned and I’m just not willing to slap some Amazon junk on my $800 watch until a legitimate case is released
why buy screen protectors when there's a watch case option...
In Australia the Apple Watch ultra will cost $1300 ⌚️
Assessories
Cool
I have only had steel Apple Watches and now the Ultra since 2015 and have never scratched a screen. If you buy the aluminum Apple Watches you most likely will scratch the screen or case.
I paid extra for the Titanium version of the Apple Watch 6 and it still looks brand new. This is my everyday and every night Watch. No scratches on the body or screen, Titanium and Sapphire are ridiculously hard to scratch.
Does Val have her own channel???
I would rather have a scratched Apple Watch screen than use a screen protector on them. Same reason I don’t cover the glass on my regular watches.
