Love My Watch!
||Posted .I just want to shout out to Best Buy for actually HAVING the AW Series 2. I chose not to preorder the AW2, so I thought surely within a couple weeks it would be fully stocked on the shelves---boy, was I wrong. The Apple store was still showing a 3-4 week order lead time, with store pickups being about the same lead time. I had been watching BB's website every once in a while (they were at 3-4 weeks too), and, when I saw it back in stock and offering free two-day shipping, I jumped on it. Thanks BB!! My mom and sister already had the AW1 and loved it, but I was waiting for the next series, because I knew it would be even better. It's true! It's water resistant, offers a larger capacity battery, and has an even brighter display. The stainless steel version has the Sapphire crystal too, but I was set on the rose gold--it's beautiful. I have not used my watch for a workout yet (only had it two days so far), but I can't wait to. The watch is so feature-packed, from measuring heart rate to its workout apps to counting your activity to sending texts and more. I love being able to flick my wrist up and read a message that just came in, without having to get my phone out, and decide from there whether or not I need to reply to it immediately. I needed the 38mm because I have a small wrist. I wanted the Rose Gold with Midnight Blue band, but, for some reason, they've decided to only offer that combo in 42mm the past two series. So, I bought this combo with the rose band, and I decided I was going to purchase the 38mm MB band separately (I just knew it would be a beautiful combo). Unfortunately, BB doesn't have this 38mm band yet, so I had to purchase elsewhere. I added two photos to my review, one with the original combo, as the AW2 was setting up, and another with the MB band on it. Overall, 5/5! I love the watch so far, and I can't wait to delve into the features even more. I'm also considering buying that magnetic dock for it, but I haven't yet. Lastly, I appreciate that the AW2 comes with the charging block, as the AW1 didn't. I owned a FitBit at one time too, but this is just mountains above that. Buy this! You won't regret it. Best smart watch on the market.

Love It!!! ❤️️
||Posted .I wasn't sure if I would really like wearing an iWatch due to the screen size on my tiny wrist. My mind was made up though as soon as I put it on! I love being able to manage timers & alarms from my wrist as well as phone calls & text messages. I'm not suppose to have my phone out at work so it's nice to be able to keep up with anything crucial from my wrist. I charge it at night while I shower & get ready for bed & again first thing in the morning while I get ready so that I am able to sleep in it & take advantage of the silent alarms to wake me up & not my husband. It has never died on me during the day so long as I have done this & that is with me using it a lot during the day. The silent alarms also work great for letting me know, and not my students, when we have 5 min left of class so I can begin winding down class. The scribble to write is really nice to have for use on text messages. Cons: I wish the speaker was louder during phone calls. I wish the respond time was faster on apps. I also wish there were more apps that I use available for my Apple Watch. I wish I could see my step count easier. I'm coming from using a Fitbit Alta & I would much rather see my step count at the bottom of my watch face than my active calories burned, stand goal, & active minutes. I also wish there were competitions with other iWatch users like there are in fitbit. Apple care: DO APPLE CARE!! I do not have it for my iPhone but I added it to my watch. Your hand swings around all day doing stuff!! You don't swing around an iPhone in this way. I ordered my milanese band off of Amazon for $14 & I love it!!! I have the gold iWatch and I ordered the champagne colored band. I like the tone of it way better than the gold band :) I have gotten so many compliments!!

Apple you did it again !!
||Posted .I love my Apple Watch - and will continue to upgrade as Apple always keeps improving .... I use my Apple Watch for - time - temperature - my calendar - my reminders throughout the day - It keeps track of my standing hours , my steps (I aim for 15,000 a day) and my exercise minutes... and of course rewards me with fireworks when I achieve my daily goals. I answer my phone on it when i don’t even remember where i might have put my phone.. I call my hubby on my way home while driving - no picking up a phone just tap the button and say “call hubby” -= also I can text from it and send texts or emails. I can set my iPhone on the counter back away and tap my Apple Watch and like magic I am in the photo with everyone else.... it makes the phone take the photo. I can pay for things with my Apple Pay (which either comes out of my checking as a debit (free) or charges my Discover card (small fee). I use My Chevy app - unlock my truck -= or lock it... remote start it all from my Apple Watch ... I have my capital One accounts all there too. Tap and see my balances in every account. I can do Spark People with it too.I can locate my friends right from my Watch. I have my Banktivity accounts all linked as well. I can walk-in talkie with my friends from the watch without using minutes.. I can set an alarm boom done ! I can follow allow with Apple Maps, it sends a haptic alert right to my Apple Watch on my wrist and tells me before I need to turn etc. It keeps track of the water I drink via my Hidrate water bottle. I would strongly recommend buying this awesome Apple Watch and really using it to it’s full potential ! The best made ... it’s an Apple product. Thank You Apple for another awesome product.

Great watch
||Posted .Apple series 2 watch is great for everyone regardless of whether you want an activity tracker or not. I replaced my Polar activity tracker with this watch and have not been disappointed. It keeps track of my daily exercise and movement although doesn’t count steps. I like that I can check my heart rate easily without having to wear a chest strap. The GPS works well to track my runs, walks and cycling. It is so much more than an activity tracker, as I can receive all my texts, emails and phone calls all on my wrist! I also use the timer when I am cooking. My favorite feature is getting prompts on my wrist when I use the MAPS APP on my phone. And also the ‘find my phone’ feature has been very useful. The charger is very easy to use, and I purchased a charging stand which holds both the watch charger and the iPhone (or iPad mini) charger too. The only ‘con’ among the many ‘pros’ is that callers struggle to hear me when i answer calls on my watch, but at least it gives me a chance to pick up the call while I search in my purse to switch over to my phone. All around very happy with this phone.

Great Smart Watch for Apple Lovers
||Posted .I got my Apple Watch Series 2 (38mm with White Sports band, but I wear a black band for everyday activities) earlier this year, and am very impressed with it (I previously had a Fitbit Chrarge HR). First, the quality of the band is remarkable - It washed nicely (just washing it in the sink after working out or yard work) and has yet to show any wear and tear. I work in a wear house and it has held up wonderfully. The Watch body itself is beautiful and feels high quality. The OS is so easy to use and the touchscreen is incredibly easy to navigate. After only a month of using it, I'm never going back to anything besides an Apple Watch.

Fun and great companion for Iphone
||Posted .This ended up having more features that I use than i originally thought I would. My favorite is the ability to read part of any emails I receive and I can delete or mark as read right from my Iwatch, I can see who's calling me at a quick glance and even use it to track exercise from walking to bike riding. It has become a part of my daily life and I love it! Also you can make it as dressy or dressed down as you want to very easily with a few accessories. I must mention that one of the most important features is the ability to see anything that shows up on the face of the Iwatch which was a worry for me when I ordered it. It is clear and bright even in daylight. I could go on and on about other features, but get one and find out for yourself!!

very helpful shopping experience in store
||Posted .You don't really have to read many reviews on the watch. It's pretty self explanatory and there aren't any flaws as of yet. I've had it around maybe a month and the battery life is good. The screen is bright and easy to read. I love being able to check Instagram, emails and texts from my wrist. I did not realize that I'd be able to reply to texts until I purchased which is awesome. I also love the fact that it is water proof and fits my super skinny wrists! Before the watch was out in retailers I went to my local Best Buy and an employee was able to order it for me and have it shipped to my house. He didn't even give me any issues or attitude when I requested to use a couple of different payment methods. Overall it was a great experience and I am loving my watch :)

More useful than I thought
||Posted .Bought this watch and after doing so thought it was a mistake. Went to take it back and it was on sale 70 dollars cheaper. Got my price adjustment and figured I'd keep it now that I didn't pay as much and see if I liked it or would actually use it. I wear it to work where we cannot have our phones on us and it is so helpful to see who's calling and who's texting without pulling out my phone. I can make the decision to reply back right then or it can wait. Glad I got it and kept it

Q: QuestionIs the series 3 a better buy than the 2? Is the series 2 being phased out in favor of the 3?
Asked by Bebe.
- A:Answer I researched the two and could not find a significant benefit to the Series 3 unless you plan to purchase the 3 with the data plan. Both the 2 and 3 have GPS and are waterproof which was why I decided to upgrade from my Series 1 which did not have a GPS and was only splash resistant. As far as I know Apple will no longer make the Series 2 so yes it will be phased out but should not effect you if you decide to purchase one. They still support Series 1 and 2 with all the software upgrades.

Q: QuestionCan you mute the Apple Watch? What accessories go with this?
Asked by Kristina.
This question was asked about the related product: Apple Watch Series 2 38mm Silver Aluminum Case White Sport Band - Silver Aluminum
- A:Answer Yes, you can! There is a vibrate mode and an airplane mode. But the watch does not match the mode your phone is in, so if your phone is on silent, it's possible still for your watch to alert you.
