Hi John.
Fitness is what the Apple Watch is really all about, if you’re not in to
fitness or don’t want to monitor your health using your iPhone, the Apple watch
really doesn’t offer anything you can’t achieve with a Bluetooth headset.
Sure, there are Apple Watch apps which give you timely alerts of events and you
can keep on top of your appointments, emails etc., but to make the most of your
watch, you need your phone within close range as some of the technology relies
on Bluetooth, though the watch does have a built in wifi adaptor.
All the best, Ibrahim.

I don’t think there is anything you can do with the watch that you can’t do
with the iPhone and a headset. Having said that I have an Apple Watch and I
love it. It’s just more convenient for checking notifications and messages,
etc., and keeping track of physical activity such as exercising.
When I am out and about I use a multi-point Bluetooth earpiece which lets me
access messages on the Watch while my phone is stowed away. I can use the phone
on the same earpiece for BlindSquare and the Train App and for reading books on
the move.

this is my own personal preference buti love the watch with the iphone, haven't
really had much experience with headsets but i like that i can tell via the
watch that i'm getting a call, i have been known to miss them before i had the
watch and my phone was in my bag.

Hi all
I’m thinking of buying an Apple Watch but I’m not sure what advantage over
the iPhone with a Bluetooth headset the Apple Watch has. There is the haptic
feedback for Maps and the tactile touch time facility on the watch, but what
else does the watch do that I can’t do with a Bluetooth headset and my iPhone
Also, could I use a Bluetooth headset with the Watch and iPhone, and is there
any point in doing this?
Cheers
Barry
