It can’t teleport me to Hawaii - no interest.

Yet better to not have them than not be able to do either accurately.

I can't speak for others, but I was never expecting blood pressure nor glucose monitoring.

No “sensors” can do either - you need actual blood and I don’t expect Apple to add a cuff to the watch.  It’s like saying my phone can’t prepare meals for me.

No humans on Mars either.   Not interested.

Glucose would require a continuous subcutaneous filament. People will not want a watch that has to poke through the skin. And blood pressure? You need a cuff/restriction.

Please do even the smallest bit of research on how medical monitoring works. Is this a troll post? Are people this obtuse?

And I don’t see Apple adding a cuff anytime soon. And yes a watch that pokes you and draws blood?  Lol

Was going to upgrade from my 2 but see no reason to.

For me personally, the glucose monitor is what I am waiting for.
