Apple Watches Now Have Shorter 1M Charging Cable in Box

Good, the shorter cable will allow the electricity to reach the watch more quickly and charge it more fasterer.

Phill: "Let's cut the watch cable size in half, that saves up 20 cents"

Tim: *Mindblown*

Honestly, that 2m cable made no sense.

The iPhone, and not the Watch, needs a 2m cable, as you may want to use it while it charges.

"The courage to move on and do something new that betters all of us."

Apple isn't Apple unless they try to nickle and dime their customers.

is it a surprise? take courage to do this

I wonder if the charging method used for the Apple Watch will be used for the all new iPhone in 2017.

I'd say you're on to something:

Wired, "Here’s What You Need to Know About Ceramic, The Fancy Material in Apple’s Fanciest Watch" ('https://www.wired.com/2016/09/apples-new-high-end-watch-crazy-tough-ceramics-baby/')

"...the back of each Watch uses zirconia ceramic where the magnetic charger attaches. Ceramics are non-conductive, and don’t interfere with wireless charging."

and

"The result is a material that’s pretty much un-scratchable, and, under most circumstances, unbreakable."

If Apple can get costs down, a Ceramic iPhone next year would be crack proof, shatter proof, bend-proof and support conductive charging.
