Apple Watch Series 5 (GPS) 40mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band - Space Gray Aluminum

I was very anti-smart watch. I had gotten the Apple Watch 2 when it first came out and ended up returning it. Since then, I’ve only used automatic watches bc I didn’t want to deal w the hassle of charging. I searched for months, then finally succumbed to the Apple Watch 5. I am so glad I did. The fact that it has the option to stay on is the best thing ever. It feels like a real watch instead of a computer or phone on your wrist. The size isn’t much larger than watches I wear. You have the option to put the most important things on your watch face, so there’s no unnecessary fiddling. And the best part: I work in healthcare and I’m able to wash my wrist and watch when I wash my hands (several times per day) without feeling like I’m damaging my watch. I couldn’t even do this with my normal watch! I’m very happy with this purchase.

I love this watch. The instant ekg is a must for people concerned with their heart. My actually came up with a irregular heart rhythm today, so I’m keeping a close eye out. The Pillow app(27. Yearly) has helped me improve my sleep patterns and I feel set i much better. Keep track of my walking/exercise has encouraged me to do more daily. Knowing my heart rate they out the day keeps me on track. Being disabled, I forget to stand a lot , the watch reminds me. And Breathe app keeps me relaxed thru out the day. Solid buy. Answering me calls (mine is basic no cellular/works with my existing number) is so convient. I change the clock face daily .

I used to own the series 1 Apple watch and can say this is a huge step up! Never thought I would purchase an Apple watch again after feeling a little disappointed with the first series. The battery life is great. It lasts over a day for me but I usually charge it every night, just as I do with my phone. The watch is perfect for tracking activity for those into fitness. I’ve definitely been exercising a lot more since purchasing this watch. Checking and replying to texts is seamless. Also, the audio when receiving phone calls is great - the audio is very clear. The aluminum is great because it’ll never show finger prints, and I think it’s much less likely to endure any dings or scratches when compared to the stainless steel models. I’ve owned this watch for over a month now and have nothing but good things to say. I bought this while it was on sale at Best Buy ($100 off retail price) and it was worth every penny!

I was considering buying the series 3, but then I chose the 5. I couldn’t be happier with my decision. The watch has so many functions, for instance you can answer the phone and it has a mini speaker, so you don’t even need the earphones! No more worries to find the phone to answer a call. Many people complained about the always lit screen, but I actually love it! It’s nice to see the time ALWAYS, and when I’m running, I can keep track of all the metrics without gesturing. Battery lasts all day, which is fine, I’m not going to use the power-saving mode if I paid 400 bucks for all the magic that comes with the watch functioning at 100%. I also feel that Siri is more effective on the watch than on the phone. I also like taking ECGs although I don’t need to. They’re just fun to watch lol. The design and the touch of the watch is awesome. Honestly, it’s soooo easy to use. Oh! And I love the pink color. :)

Ok, I was stuck out in the country during the pandemic and my gal pals back at home started a challenge. They all had Apple Watches to help them keep track of their progress and I decided I would treat myself for mothers day. So, now I am getting up and moving more, keeping track of walking, jogging and WHOO HOOO Swimming! Plus, it's nice to stop and "Breathe!" I never knew how much I would appreciate being able to see my calls or messages on my watch - it's so much nicer than glancing at my phone - and way more stealth when I am in a meeting to notice who is trying to reach me. I am happy with the purchase and know I will enjoy it even more as I learn more ways to utilize the apps, etc.

Highly recommend!!! Absolutely love this watch!!! I didn’t go for cellular because I didn’t feel the need to text/call on it when out of reach from my actual phone, but my fiancé regrets not getting the cellular for this reason! I also got the 40mm because, again, I’m not using it for texting, but I would recommend the larger size if you want to use it for more than just the basics!

The features this thing has is actually pretty cool but the most notable one I think is the ECG, Many people have said this feature has saved their lives and I believe it, It actually was rated to be as good as those top of the line ECGs by doctors. There is other features like the decibel reader to see if your room is a little too loud and if it could leave to permanent damage, Pretty much a gimick but it's still a neat feature. Obviously this thing is a good fitness tracker as well, With the whole 'Closing loops' competitive-ness thing with your friends. This is also going to become a sleep tracker when Watch OS7 comes out if any of you are interested in that feature, Do a quick google search what else that adds.

One of those go in the store for one thing and come out with more experience. I didn’t know anything about Apple watches, and wanted to know more. The manager that helped me, was very patient, described everything clearly, he want me to get what I wanted and he knew his stuff. I wasn’t expecting to get a watch, but with the excellent customer service and the sale price on the latest, I was sold. To that manager that help me...thanks!!!! Too bad I don’t remember names. I’m sure it’s on my receipt, in which I don’t have in front of me.
