I had a series 2 prior to this watch. I think the ECG feature is super cool, as well as detecting falls. I like this Nike version due to the cool faces it comes with. I have no complaints, I use this watch everyday and have no issues. It helps me keep track of calories burned with workouts, as well as steps. I find it very motivating in my fitness routine. Would definitely recommend.

I didn't think the watch was a need or anything major. I was fine with my iPhone and Airpods, but I don't regret my purchase one bit! I love not having to constantly pull my iPhone out to do little things like change my music, check my messages and reply to them, I'm able to keep track of how activate I am throughout the day.

Ever since my watch came in I feel more active, trying to close my ring almost everyday. And it’s fun challenging your friends.

Love the many different face options, which are even more customizable.
Having this watch with the activity tracking has helped me be even more active.
Also nice to be able to see, and even voice compose messages.
I don't have small wrists, but I don't have extra large wrists either. But still, the watch comes with 2 bands; a small one and a large one. I'm using the large band and still on the last mounting hole. It works. But a person with extra large wrists would need to immediately purchase an aftermarket watch band.
Also highly recommend a face cover. There isn't any rubber ring around the face glass so it's not protected from impact.

Battery barely lasts the entire day. Not a great watch if you are active and track steps and activities.
In fact, I just realize my battery was depleted while writing this review.....

Good size for smaller wrists, good heart rate monitor and the atrial fibrillation app is cool. Good for fitness tracking in general and being able to have pictures cycle as the clock face is fun.

This has been a great watch! Got it for a great price. Not sure if I would recommend Apple watches over fitbit, I got this one at the same price point as the most expensive fitbit so it was a good purchase for me. I miss some of the features of the fitbit and the battery does not last very long. This makes it difficult to use when camping unless you carry an external power supply to charge it.

Best Smartwatch Option for iOS Users

If you have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is simply the way to go, and the smaller bezels, larger screen, and always on display make the Series 5 a much better choice than the Series 3.
I've had a few different fitness trackers and smart watches over the last couple years, including an Android Wear device and a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active that I used with both Android and iOS. The Apple Watch and iPhone pair blows any other pair out of the water. The only downside is I'm really locked into the Apple ecosystem now. It pairs effortlessly, communicates without any issues, and has the most functions as a smart watch, while having everything I need and more for runs, bike rides, and HIIT workouts.
The always on display was something that held me back from the apple watch in the past, but the Series 5 has it and it works great. With my other smart watches, I was already in the habit of charging it every night, and with the Apple Watch, I have yet to run out of juice in a day, no matter how much I play with it or work out, it's never gone to low battery. This is all that I need from a watch, battery wise.
I'm a huge fan of this watch, easy to swap out bands for a more athletic feel or a more formal look, whatever my needs may be. All around, very happy with my purchase.

Some uses I thought was available with this smart watch is not possible. I wanted a pattern of sleep monitor but it requires another app to have this performed. One of my primary reasons for purchase. The other functions are great though. I could have purchased a much cheaper Apple Watch model and received the functions that I use on this one. Battery charge life issue for me as well.

I love my watch. The band is comfortable and I kept track of how active I am throughout the day. I wish the battery was a little better but other than that it's great.

Great watch, for a great price. I got this to monitor my sleep at night, because I'm always falling asleep randomly through the day. This is my first Apple Watch and I've had it for about a month now. It has helped a lot with regulating my sleep as well as motivate me to get exercise, work on my overall health, remember important tasks/remember to text/call my friends/family back (I have ADHD), and find my iPhone with a ping button because I'm constantly losing it. Feeling the watch buzz on my wrist really helps, because I'm prone to tuning auditory stimuli out. If you're an iPhone user and have a hard time managing your daily life, the Apple Watch is a must have, even without cellular. Or I guess you could just find a way to strap your phone to your wrist, but that might get annoying.
As far as features go, you've got a great little touch screen (probably better for smaller fingers). The screen always stays on but dims when not holding it towards your face, so you always know the time and other stats set on the screen. It mirrors your phone notifications, but only when you are looking at the watch. The watch can be set to be PIN protected, so when you take it off, no one can use it unless they have the PIN (you only need to enter the PIN when you put the watch back on). You can quickly send messages to people with presets, emojis, drawing on the screen with finger, and using your voice. When your phone rings, your watch tells you and has a handoff feature, super helpful if your phone is on silent. You can add all kinds of apps to the watch and add app widget/shortcuts to your watch faces. It's always checking your heart rate and alerts you if something is wrong. It records all of your health data in your phone's health app. Battery probably lasts me around 18 hours. The watch never gets hot. It has silent mode as well as do not disturb and airplane mode. It's got a flashlight, but probably not as good as a real one, since it's just the screen. It has WiFi. If you get water in the watch, there's an on-screen button you push and you blow the water out through the tiny hole in the watch. There's too many features to go over to list in my review, but those are some of the ones I found really helpful.
The only time I really take the watch off is to shower and charge the watch.
