Socioeconomic Issues The Apple Iwatch can solve social problems because instead of carrying a phone around you can just use the watch to make calls and text. It will be easier to carry the watch around instead of having to carry around the 4.4 inch iPhone 6 or a 5.5 inch iPhone 6 plus. You can also use the iWatch to hold important documents just as an iPhone would do. People who are into fitness can also use this iWatch because it has the same features an iPhone in a more convenient size.

Information About My Technology It's similar in spirit to Samsung's Gear watches. It doesn't have a round display like some Google Android Wear devices. It looks more like a piece of tech than a traditional watch; that's quite a contrast to the newly announced Huawei Watch, which goes all-in on a retro look and feel. There are three tiers of Apple Watch, but they all feature the same curved design and rectangular display. Inside, they're all the same: features, storage and connectivity are identical. The differences are in materials and bands. Each of the three models is available in two different watch body sizes, 38mm and 42mm.

Hardware/Software It’s called the Taptic Engine, a linear actuator inside Apple Watch that produces haptic feedback. In less technical terms, it taps you on the wrist whenever you receive an alert or notification, or press down on the display. Apple is on track to launch the iWatch in October, and that timeframe still seems to make the most sense. Now, ahead of that launch, Apple’s manufacturing partners in Asia are reportedly gearing up to get the iWatch production underway. According to CENS, Quanta Computer is beginning “trial” production of the iWatch ahead of mass production that’s scheduled to start later this month. Quanta is said to provide 70 percent of Apple’s iWatch orders, which lines up with a report last month from Reuters that said the same thing.
