Watch a bunch of old people react to the Apple Watch

A lot has been said about the complexity of the Apple Watch UI. We have the opportunity to use gadgets every day, and still found it to have a steep learning curve. But it appears to be no match for a group of elders, who seem to breeze through the watch’s features like it’s no big deal.

In a new Elder’s React video, a group of senior citizens give Apple’s new wearable a spin, and take pretty quickly to the watch’s functionality. Maybe it’s because we’re somewhat used to what smartwatches can do, but these folks have an almost child-like reaction to the Apple Watch’s capabilities, showing genuine excitement for what it can do. It can text? It can take calls?

The participants seem to enjoy the watch’s fitness capabilities the most, which is one of the device’s strongest features. But even though they recognize the wearable can do a lot, some of them admit that a smartwatch is completely unnecessary, especially if it relies on a phone.

You know all about the Apple Watch; you know what it can do, what apps it can run, and even some of its deepest, darkest secrets. But it’s not just for young people like you and me. It appears anyone can pick up the Apple Watch no problem.

Exec behind “Next Big Thing” campaign has departed Samsung

Samsung Mobile CMO, Todd Pendleton, has reportedly departed the company, according to CNET . Pendleton is credited with creating Samsung’s famous “Next Big Thing” campaign, which took aim at the company’s rivals while highlighting the benefits of its own mobile lineup. The ads were smart, terse, and ultimately helped raise the awareness of Samsung’s brand as a major smartphone maker here in the U.S. It’s unclear why Pendleton left, but it’s being reported that Samsung executives became dissatisfied with the campaign’s recent success, even going so far as auditing the mobile division’s Dallas headquarters. It seems you can only use the Next Big Thing tagline so many times; the commercials have taken a decidedly different turn over the past few months, focusing on design, functionality and features rather than bashing Samsung competitors. The timing, I suppose, seems appropriate given that Samsung has just unveiled two new flagships, the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Samsung is clearly

You can now control PowerPoint for iPhone with your Apple Watch

Want to master the CMO role? Join us for GrowthBeat Summit on June 1-2 in Boston , where we'll discuss how to merge creativity with technology to drive growth. Space is limited and we're limiting attendance to CMOs and top marketing execs. Request your personal invitation here ! Microsoft today updated its PowerPoint for iOS app with a rather bizarre update: remote Apple Watch support. You can download the new version now directly from Apple’s App Store . We say this addition is “bizarre” because, well, why would anyone want to control PowerPoint on their iPhone from their Apple Watch? This PowerPoint app also works on the iPad , and we would argue it makes more sense to control a presentation on your tablet from your wrist than one that is on your smartphone. Here is the changelog so you can try to make sense of it yourself: PowerPoint Remote for Apple Watch: control your slide show on iPhone with a beautifully simple app. Start your slide show and easily navigate to
