This is more or less exactly what I hoped the Apple Watch would be: a sensor platform with simple notifications. Too bad it doesn't look as nice as a Fitbit, though; that screen is way too long.

It looks as thick as my Fitbit Flex; which has no screen. The Fitbit Force which has a screen is a much thicker device in order to accommodate a LED screen that will tell you details.

I think this is an interesting compromise.
