    Unexpected Drawback

    Haven’t been able to figure out how to activate this second watch to my iPhone for another family member as his iPhone is too old to accommodate the Series 8. Also the band is barely fits and is smaller than my own. They are supposed to be the same size (S/M).

    My refurbished watch was in great condition and worked perfectly. I got 91% battery health which I was satisfied with. Has been on my wrist for 4 months now going strong.

    Great watch for the first couple of months then the speaker on it went out. Not that big of a deal for the price I bought it for. Everything else still works good

    The quality than Watch was fine however, it’s supposed to be compatible with my iPhone 8+. It is not I needed an update so I called Apple support because I knew I had a two week window to return it and still have to pay a restocking fee. Unfortunately, Apple support is slow and I’m still not getting any help from them. I live 135 miles away from the nearest Best Buy. I’m frustrated because I just want to get my watch so I can use it. It’s unusable until evidently it has an update that I can’t do on my own. I’m not sure why it wasn’t ready to go when I got it from Best Buy but I’m still trying to get Apple support to help me. I would prefer not to pay a restocking fee to just take it back the next time I am at a Best Buy.

    This refurbished Apple Watch looked and worked great. Seems like they maybe provided a new band and charger but maybe the first person just didn't use them? I am very pleased with this watch.
