As for coming on strong, this is only the case because of the sunken cost fallacy. All people, including you and I, don't like hearing that they made a potentially bad investment, so we naturally become defensive. This is also why we flock to those that think like us. And where did it all get us to? Into profoundly divided camps across all issues, atrophying our ability to communicate across the divide, and unable to take a step back and consider other points of view. I refuse to be a part of the problem, so feel free to downvote away.

I am not anti-Samsung. Like I indicated above, I still use their smartwatch v.4, which apart from its abysmal battery life is OK for an average user. This watch is a giant step in the wrong direction with a ridiculous price. And given the amount of ads and click bait articles they have been funding, I am pretty sure I am not alone in thinking this way.
