Kann Out of the Box so ziemlich überhaupt nix. Um vernünftig Datenauswertungen zu bekommen muss für alles eine extra App gekauft werden. Akku Laufzeit....geht überhaupt nicht. keinen Schimmer warum diese Apple Uhren so gehyped werden, aber vermutlich entgeht mir da nur was. Und ich bin sicher kein Apple Hasser mit iPhone 14 Pro und iPad pro...
