Are there any cons?
Well, when we watch the Apple announcement on 9th March, we would find that there are less cons in buying Apple Watch.

Battery life is said to be another concern though Apple claims that battery life would last at least 18 hours for a regular use but if you using it for a number of purposes, it may get shorter. Other than these minor drawbacks, the Apple Watch looks interesting and stylish!
