You must have seen a number of people only using all Apple products. iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Apple watch. This is an example of using a particular ecosystem. Again some others may prefer Android OS, Android wearable, Windows OS. They usually stick to an ecosystem for ease of connectivity, compatibility, easy file transfer, etc.
