If you want balance then this article is required reading to your cherry picked generally positive reviews.
Btw what is FUD. Your posts and replies are generally confusing.
You aren't paying attention if you think I post only cherry picked positive articles on Apple. I post positive, neutral, and negative articles, anything that concerns Apple and its products that might be of interest to the over 725 members of the ping list. I don't just cherry pick the good stuff. I just posted this extremely negative article last night. there are lots more. It too is FUD.
I'm surprised you don't know that term. It's been around for years ever since Microsoft firs used the technique it represents against Apple in the 1980s. FUD is an acronym for Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt about a company or a product usually orchestrated by a competitor or competitors. Apple is usually the target of FUD. . . and the FUD engines get revved up three to four weeks before any major Apple announcement or product release. There are numerous marketing studies demonstrating this. Astroturfing articles commission like the two almost identical articles extracting pull quotes of negativity from generally glowing reviews of the Apple Watch to make it appear as if the reviewers were completely negative to people who had not actually read the real reviews. That's FUD. WHO DOES REVIEWS OF REVIEWS? Shills Astroturfing FUD paid by the competition who are running scared of the new product, that's who.
My replies are not confusing except for people trying to characterize me as stupid. Alinsky's rules for radicals 5 and 12. You guys don't do it very well. I'm not frozen, and your attempts at ridicule are pathetic.
Ask any of the 700 plus members of the ping list if my posts or replies are at all confusing to them.
Those reviews come from Apple’s selected group of reviewers that they know will give them a positive review. That is why they got early testing units.
