Is everybody thrilled about getting smartwatches this holiday season? No? Well, that’s news to Tiger Beat in the Valley’s Barry Levine.
“Our crystal ball says the top-selling smartwatch this season will be …” (indirect link).
And by “crystal ball” VentureBeat mean “extremely suspicious study.” So, pretty accurate. It’s about as predictive as a ball that is made of crystal. Slightly less predictive than a Magic 8-Ball, which a minimum of attempts to give you responses.

That is a thing you can compose on the Web with definitely no proof to back it up! See? There it is in black and white! So it must hold true due to the fact that “huge” is a relative term so it can indicate anything so there we settled that.
The crystal ball was actually First Insight’s online test that collected feedback from almost 1,000 randomly selected individuals …
“Almost 1,000.” It was “actually” 966 which is much shorter to type out but four digits and a comma looks better. See? It’s nearly 5 digits with the comma, actually, so it’s more like 10,000 individuals.
… asking them about 8 prominent smartwatches.
Wait, you can say among the currently shipping smartwatch unfortunate sacks is “prominent” without breaking into flames? Huh. The Macalope would never ever have actually guessed that.
The winning smartwatch overall? The Asus Zenwatch.
Congratulations to Asus on this utterly useless win! It’s a great looking watch, however First Understanding’s first-class sciamatific survey utilized images without any scale to show the watches. The Zenwatch is 51 mm long and 39.9 mm large. The larger of the 2 Apple Watches is 42 mm long, so it’s about as long as the Zenwatch is wide.
It might make an exceptional vambrace. Perhaps that discusses its relative appeal, particularly among LARPers.
And if Apple is reading this …
They should stop wasting their time and return to work.
It’s fine for the Macalope to be reading this, but dumpster-diving is his task. Apple actually ought to have something better to do.
The second most popular? The Apple Watch.
Buh? So, this survey is obviously not of vacation buying objectives in spite of the headline spin considering that, you know, you can’t a lot purchase the Apple Watch this holiday. Truly, it’s just a slide program with scores. In other words, it’s sad and horrible like Rate My Body instead of being gross like Tinder.
However the genuine surprise, [First Insight’s chief advertising officer Jim Shea] stated, was …
That you in fact paid people to complete this survey?
… that, “for ladies who voted to purchase a smartwatch for themselves, Apple was primary.”.
Which is unusual due to the fact that … uh, no person actually knows why this is surprising.
“If I was Apple,” Shea informed us, “I ‘d make a watch particularly for ladies.”.
Are you listening, Apple?
A watch … for women? What sort of rough alchemy would that require? Is such a thing even possible?
Wait, don’t the outcomes really show that women currently like the Apple Watch quite well? Does Shea even understand his company’s own findings?
These outcomes state hardly any about the Apple Watch’s position. When it eventually does ship, it will certainly require an iPhone (at least initially), which restricts its broad adoption. It’ll still ship pretty well, probably better than any of the exercise weights currently delivering under the “smartwatch” moniker. Beyond that, slide show studies aren’t going to reveal much.
