Watch Ultra are very capable mobile devices. This came out of left field but I can see it working for some.

Which Watch Ultra do you mean? Both Apple and Samsung products come up in web searches for "Watch Ultra" for me.

This article is pretty clearly about an "Apple Watch case with scroll wheel". Pretty sure which one it is can be inferred from context.

Seizure warning. Edit for clarification: The scrolling implementation here flashes rapidly on Firefox for Mac OS.

Dumping on other peoples software baselessly? Haven't decades old flamewars... gotten old?

Looking back at your comment history, I can at least I can thank you for recycling. Too bad you can't get carbon credits recycling jokes.

What a fun and cool idea on such a horrid web page. I am curious what it can do, but whatever is going on is illegible and busted for me. I literally couldn't read any text on the left half of the page. I managed to scroll down to a price and for what appears to be a tech toy $80 isn't the worst price, people burn more on a 3d only to make 1 toy boat that doesn't float then stuff it in a closet. EDIT - Why the roller…

I absolutely loved the page. Had a lot of fun scrolling up and down and thought it was cleverly designed. Similar, but better, than what Apple does on their own pages.

Then you’re not experiencing the bugs that some others are experiencing.

Yes, the top half of the webpage acts as a power point presentation, with image flashes - instead of a smooth animation. - firefox on linux

It's funny how we went from using iPod Nano as a watch with a third party case, to using an Apple Watch as an iPod Nano with a third party case.

We did? I don’t recall an accessory like that for the nano. Seems it would have been too tall (wide?) to function as a watch. Happy to be proven wrong though.

I suppose there is some novelty to this sort of thing. I have already had all that drained away years ago when this single all in one scrolling thing was a big fad.

I never really liked this all-in-one scroll capturing pages, they violate so many user expectations. But I don't complain unless they are actually broken, others reported weird flashing, I am reporting bad Z-order and bad responsiveness.
