NDM Story #10 Apple Watch battery life will only last a single day, confirms CEO Tim Cook





"You're going to wind up charging it every day," said Cook. "Because you're going to use it so much."

Apple is planning to release the device early next year in America before slowly rolling it out to other markets, and the Apple Watch will come in three models – normal, sport and luxury – all of which need to be paired up with an iPhone. Cook said that the iPhone sales are still predicted to generate half of the company's revenue for the future. Cook also boasted about the success of the recently-launched Apple Pay mobile wallet, which lets iPhone 6 and 6 Plus owners pay for purchases using their mobile. The company has reportedly had more than one million cards activated for Apple Pay in the first 72 hours, which Cook says gives the company “more than the total of all the other guys”.

As other companies have released smart watches, it is no surprise that Apple have released one also. Apple, along with other competitive companies are now known to have substantial battery lives due to the great usage of phones, tablets etc by consumers. Therefore, Cook has confirmed and put his belief into the new Apple watch being a success and believes that it will need to be charged every night because consumers will use it so much throughout the day.
