Time is important, Time is Costly

Too much price for a watch, sorry smart watch! But dumb or smart, what is exactly the use of a smart watch?? I fail to understand.

As much as I know this smart watch keeps an eye on users health related issues and warns them if anything found suspicious with heart or brain etc. 

Time is most scare and is costly whatever be price of watch. Time is more precious than watch. Anyone has only twenty four hours a day and not more. Then the value of time disposable with an individual depends how he can use this. Obviously a doctor's time is more precious than that of a peon.  

What are its features. If the features are that good which justifies its cost, then it's OK. As far as I'm concerned, I'm satisfied with my present watch which is giving me excellent service.

Smart watch is a smart phone which can be strapped like a watch on the wrist instead of carrying it in hand or pocket. It has additional features related to health indicators.It is not a simple watch costing high.It is a technologically a superior product and savy customers will buy it all over the world. Yes it is costly because for such products "skimming pricing" policy is followed where development costs are sought to be recovered in short time before competition catchs up and prices start falling. Time can be valued by persons irrespective of a watch's cost.

I asked the thread poster to provide the details. Unless the details are provided, I cannot say anything about smart phone. Till then my present wrist watch is my smart watch.

As far as I know I don't think they are providing that much features which can justify its cost. Its just brand related that's what I think.

Features, yes its provide some health related features, for example heart related or something like that, but we can get same features in low cost gadget too. Other features are quite common, which provide notifications for messages, mail, schedules, etc.

This much price for all these is tooooooooooo high.  

If the features are not so extraordinary. There is no NEED TO THINK ABOUT the smart phone.

True. For possessing one good thing, you are forced to buy another. Anyhow even for this, there are buyers. It's a manufacturers' world.

That's surely true. Even such high priced gadget will find the buyers. There are many techno lovers available in this world which buy on the name of brand.

The manufacturers are sure about their demand. That's the quality of a good marketing strategy. Or else why they manufacture? Surely not for losing money or the reputation of their brand.

That's true. They know they will get enough market for their products so that they can have enough profit. Yeah they surely works as per demand and they provide quality stuff for sure. The price is only barrier for many.

That's how the world is progressing bigbro, if we all stick to old technologies we shall reach nowhere. Anyone who can afford it will go for it. After all who would say a couple of decades back we shall be using internet 24x7 like we do today.

That's true suni. But there are other options available where we can have low cost gadget which work on all smart phones. That would be more better I guess if it is needed.

If there are low cost gadgets which work on all smart phones, well, I prefer such options. After all, I'm a buyer. I look for the value part of my money.

That's what I am saying. Iphones are costly, they provide quality for sure, but still they are over cost. Other low cost gadget can support all kind of android phones which we all know that available in proper budget. 

Now, it's to be seen over the next few weeks, the response for this smart phone.

Without buyers no product is launched. Certainly such an expensive watch will have takers too. When people have too much money they don't know what to do, hence buy expensive things to show off.

Smart watches by different companies are available in the market with top-notch features like fitness monitoring, heart beat monitoring, etc. Cost will be higher depending on the features. It is not meant for common man. Those who can afford can possess it.
