Why would anyone need an Apple Watch or anything similar?

That seems more like fixing a problem that was never a problem in the first place. You pay hundreds of dollars/euros, if not more, to save yourself at most 30 seconds a day. It's never worth the price since your smart phone can do everything a smart watch can also do, for a lower price. Having both is just the height of unnecessary luxury and exactly the kind of consumer behavior that ruins our environment and depletes our resources. Most of it is just clever marketing to make you think you need or want it while in fact your life would look exactly the same without it. I wish I could contain my anger against these utterly useless and trivial products, but I can't.
