What's up guys, Stephen Cullter Mac here back with my second video of the day out of
0:06
three and in this one I'm going to be taking a look at the Apple Watch Series 3, unboxing
0:11
it, giving you a hands-on look so let's get straight into it
0:15
So here it is the Apple Watch Series 3, the box has gotten a little bit damaged on its way back
0:20
from the Apple Store. As with the previous ones, the packaging is pretty minimalistic with nothing printed on the sides
0:27
Apart from on the right side here where we've got all the size and colouring, information of my Apple Watch. Let's flip this over to the back and open it up
0:51
The series 3 text on the top here in red. It's got a little bit of metallic
0:55
sheen to it which is nice. Let's lift the lid. And we've got a folder, same as with the iPhone 8 plus, only longer
1:06
In here is just a quick start guide, some warranty info, and then the extra strap so you
1:12
can switch it out depending on your wrist size. Let put all of that to one side and check what underneath the watch So there a UK power adapter
1:28
which, by the way, I love, if I can show you quickly and get this plastic off. It has a really cool folding mechanism
1:37
which makes it great for throwing into my backpack when travelling, at which all the Apple plugs came like this
1:42
Anyway, then we've also got the standard Apple Watch charger. Nothing new there
1:46
Let's move off all of that. to one side and take a look at the watch itself. On the side of the watch we'll see
1:52
the only physical difference which is that red digital crown to indicate that it's the
1:55
cellular version. If you pick up the standard GPS version there's no real
1:59
giveaways to say that this is the series 3 model. Let's take off the protective
2:04
plastic. The red on the digital crown is super vibrant and that's not going to be to
2:15
to everybody's tastes, especially if they want to match it to an outfit or support a certain
2:19
sports team. There are products out there though that can mask this, I'll cover them in a video in the
2:24
near future. As I mentioned, the rest of the watch's appearance looks the same as the previous models, which
2:30
you can see if I put my series one next to it. Let's quickly power it on and set it all up
2:35
Okay and it asking me to bring it to it my iPhone near my Apple Watch the same way you set up AirPods or beats X thanks to the W2 chip which also boosts the wireless speeds
2:53
So I'll just click continue. Oh, and I still need to do the camera connection
3:07
Agree to terms and conditions. Right, I'll go through the setup and I'll be back in a minute
3:16
So I've now gotten to this mobile data setup screen where I need to choose an additional data plan
3:24
And it's taking me to an EE page, who's my service provider
3:31
And I need to log in one moment. And there's only one plan I can choose from, which is free for the first place
3:39
six months, then it'll cost me five pound a month, which works out to be about $7 or so for 10 gig
3:44
And I can use my current minutes and texts, which are unlimited anyway. So let's click next
3:54
And I accept. Okay and I can take around about half an hour or so to activate So let see what else So I all set up now although still no data without my iPhone and we got a new Explorer
4:11
watch face here which can customize style, color and then what info we see
4:19
There's a few different colors and then the style changes how complex the dial is
4:26
Then we've also got the new Toy Story watch face. There's Jesse If we customize it, we can choose from Toy Box, which juffles between the three characters
4:36
Then we've got Buzz, Woody and Jesse separately. Buzz has always been my favourite though, so I'll choose him
4:46
Then it'll just switch from the close-up to the wide shot every time I lift my wrist up to check my watch
4:53
Let's check if we've got a signal yet. I'm guessing that red cross in the corner means not
4:57
The Apple Watch Series 3 is available now, starting at $329 for the GPS-only version, going all the way up to $1,400 for the Hermes editions
5:09
Well, it's it for this video, but don't worry, I have another one on the way shortly, unboxing the new Apple TV 4K, but also make sure to subscribe for the reviews for the new Apple Watch, the new iPhone 8+, and much, much more
