1、What it's like to shop for the Apple Watch
苹果手表能租一个玩玩儿?

Ownership is passé. Everything from jewelry and watches, to toys and clothing can now be rented. Why would you rent an Apple Watch instead of buy one? With reviews saying version 1 is only so-so, some people might not want to spend $350 or more for a device they'll want to upgrade a year later, after Apple releasesthe Apple Watch 2 in 2016. But the current Apple Watch might be just good enough to borrow for a while.

When the business finally gets going, it could be possible, he says, to pay $150 to have the device for 10 ten months, rather than $350 for a watch you might want to trade up after a year. The success of Apple Watch Lease depends on the watches being returned in good condition and in a timely manner. (Just to let you know: Apple launches iPhone recycling plan in China)


A related report: Gold Apple Watch Edition sold out in China in less than an hour

The Apple Watch Edition that costs 126,800 yuan ($20,402) in the Chinese mainland were snapped up in less than an hour on April 10, according to Tech website businessInsider.com. Reviewers this week praised the watch as "beautiful" and "stylish" but gave it poor marks for relatively low battery life and slow-loading apps.
