Apple Watch production delayed as engineers wrestle with quality issues

I use the Garmin solar instinct. It lasts 30-40 days on a charge. If it doesn't get any sun (winter months), its ~22 days on a charge.

Sure but how is that a competitor for an apple watch? At least a competitor to me would have to be able to run the equivalent of Fantastical and Omnifocus.

Hopefully you understand that watches can still be competitors in the smartwatch space even if they don't have feature parity?

Absolutely, though in terms of battery life I find it quite odd to compare a barebone watch like the Garmin to apple or samsung watches. I am not surprised that a casio watch has a better battery life either.
