I was given a series 3 recently that had been sitting in the lost and found for over a year at my father’s place of work. I don’t have an iPhone though to set it up with. It is stuck at the screen where I have to pair it with an iPhone. I do have an apple store near me, so I was wondering g if they would let me bring it in and set it up with one of their phones, just to get it started. I realize that after I unpaired it with an iPhone, ill lose functionality, but that is ok. If I end up liking this watch, I might consider getting a used iPhone to replace my Droid. Any thoughts?
The AppleWatch is developed as, sold as, and marketed as an accessory for the iPhone.
It’s is not a standalone device that can work without one.
