If you are interested in Apple Watch, but you are not sure whether or not it is worth the money Apple is asking for, well an American company called Lumoid will allow you to rent it before purchasing. Paying only 45 dollars per week you have the opportunity to each the new Apple watch before visiting a store to buy it together with a dedicated accessory. The Lumoid company already rents a multitude of other wearables for fitness at various prices, so the Apple Watch will be just one of the products that will be available in its offer.
The interest has been beyond our wildest expectations. We've shipped thousands of units for people to test out and are seeing a very high conversion rate between trial and purchase. People like the idea of being able to test drive wearables, because they have so many options, and then deciding which one to buy.
Although he will not rent Apple Watch Edition, the company claims that it will have both the Apple Watch Sport and the stainless steel model, the latter of which will cost $55 per week to rent. From the rental prices, 25 and 30 dollars respectively will cover the purchase cost of the products, while the rest will be dedicated to supporting the company. According to these representatives, the demand for Apple Watches is very high, creating a waiting list for those interested in renting the products starting on April 24.
The service is only available in the US at the moment and it seems that it will not be extended to other countries around the world soon, but the idea itself is as interesting as it can be.
