Absolutely true.

But it might also be evidence of how early adopters were forgotten in the attempt to appeal to a greater number of users.

I would also add that, imho, the biggest smartwatches problem is that a watch is still a style choice over a fitness utility tool. I'd rather wear my colourful and inexpensive "Swatch" watches or my grandfathers Rolex over my moto 360

It's probably just too expensive to sustain a hardware startup aiming at a niche in the west these days. Our hope is probably in China.
