Yeah, but he's flexing on people who make 180 a month

Am I missing something or just a luddite?

My gut feeling tells me they're aiming for those with personalized number plates.

LUCKY.777
and
SEXY.999 etc etc

Just imagine the power of the personal plate combined with the limited strap.

Not sure what ‘flexing’ means.

I completely depend on my Apple smart watch at work. I can be busy doing procedures, and still see and answer urgent messages as well as answer mandatory calls. Works with gloves on.

Not at work, it monitors my oxygen levels while I’m sleeping. Looks for atrial fibrillation, helps with driving directions, gets a quick glance hourly weather forecast, etc.

And yes, it can ePay, too (I have it turned off). I prefer the safety of the double click and face recognition of the iPhone for that.

I’ve got ‘beauty watches’ for some formal occasions, but rarely worn.

I don’t enjoy wearing watches. But the smart watch is too useful for me not to wear.

Can't fault Acleda's impact on the country, but they sure do have some weird (okay, really bad) tech as far as customer experience goes- said as a business user.

The ATMs in the Acleda HQ on Monivong all have huge notices stating that customers must not spray the keys with alcohol. Obviously the Covid-paranoid have short-circuited the inner wiring.

The government did a great job with it's fearmongering. I don't suppose they have a plan to undo the brainwashing.

It is not just for contactless payments but also for cash withdrawals at Acleda ATM's that accept contactless. I hope you also need a PIN for cash withdrawals or the watch becomes a very attractive items for thieves (contactless already has plenty of security issues).

I asked at Acleda HQ today. You can use it as contactless but you still have to key in a PIN.
It costs $9, one-time fee. Available from June.

So it has less functionality than a contactless card (which don't require a PIN) or a phone app which are much more secure. It is just a rubber wrist band with a chip inside with your card details on it.

As is the case around the world.
