Customers find value in the Apple Watch Series 2's ease of use, water resistance, and long battery life. Many appreciate its fitness tracking capabilities, GPS functionality, and the overall quality of the device. Positive feedback also highlights the watch's features, waterproof design, and screen size. The sleek design and convenient notifications are also frequently praised.
Apple Watch Series 2 is a homerun for anyone looking for a smartwatch focused around fitness. The screen is definitely brighter than the original Apple Watch and performance is much, much better. The case is a little thicker than the original Apple Watch--the only way I noticed this was because I had to move my sport band to the fourth notch versus the third on the original Apple Watch. The battery is improved even though Apple doesn't say it is. I'm a swimmer and the metrics are pretty accurate--your not going to get the detailed analytics from a Garmin, but it will provide you with active calories, total calories, distance, time, average heart rate (at the end of the workout, not during), lap count, average pace per 100, and dominate stroke. See screen shots below.

This is my first Apple Watch and I purposely waited for version 2 of the Apple Watch. I am glad I waited as this feels like a mature device and it really fast. I use this for so much more than just a fitness tracker which is what is how it was designed to be used. The battery life on this watch is great as I have been able to go 2 days without charging the watch which is awesome. I like the water resistance to 50m and not having to worry if I get it wet and with it being a watch it will be exposed to the elements a lot as well as being on when I go swimming. I highly recommend this new Apple Watch series 2!

I went with the Series 2 over the 3 because I didn’t want calls and text updates without my phone on me. I leave my phone behind when I want the silence. The display is great. I can put music on it and connect to my wireless headphones for a jog. Keeps track of my fitness stats and goals. I enjoy checking that if I’m driving to see if it’s an important message instead of messing with my phone.
