    I was upgrading from a previous model Apple Watch. The face staying on all the time is a major improvement. It seems to process everything so much faster than the previous models. Since it is a Nike model, there are also a few new faces that are really cool. The face is also a little bit larger. Overall, I am very pleased with the new watch. I did get it when it was $100 off so that make it even sweeter.

    I mainly use the Apple Nike Series 5 watch for the fitness tracking functions, but it's nice to have the ability to send/receive text messages and access my music with the watch during workouts. I'm really glad that I finally got this watch. The battery life is pretty good. I usually charge the watch every night even though it's hardly ever below 50% charge at the end of the day.

    This is the smartwatch, perfected. After using Android for 8 years, along with an Android smartwatch for the last two, I am back with Apple. The Apple Watch and iPad were the primary reasons for going back. Android has nearly abandoned tablets, and their Wear OS has been neglected compared to Apple's development of WatchOS. So now I am an "i guy" once more! I was excited to find out Apple was enabling an always-on display mode this time around, and the Nike digital watchface is my go-to. The ventilated silicone band is sporty, functional, and can pass for reasonably professional in all but truly formal situations. The color of the band is really just a dark gray with a slightly darker, more "black" color peeking out in the holes. This ties in with the black aluminum finish of the watch itself. I keep a bumper cover on it too (by Caseology), which matches the band color perfectly and protects the finish of the watch. Add a thin film screen protector and you're ready for the gym. The apps are great -- much more what a smartwatch can and should be than what Google has done. I particularly enjoy the activity and sleep tracking (outside app required for the later, for now...), but also responding using Siri to texts, and much more. These watches aren't cheap, and I would NEVER pay $800 for the stainless version, but you actually do get value and function for that still-steep pricepoint. In short, I am loving my new watch! :)

    I’ve had this watch for over a month now and I am very pleased with it. I had an Apple Watch series 3 before and I hit it against the wall and it broke....this one I wear it with a protector but it looks pretty natural. The watch looks great and the always on feature is great for workouts and runs....so far no complaints!!!

    I have resisted buying an Apple Watch for years even though many of my family members have it. I read a story about how the watch alerted an older gentleman that he might be experiencing a heart issue and he went into the ER. They confirmed that he was correct to come in, and they were worry about an imminent heart attack. Having heart issues in my family I decided to get the watch. It does a great job tracking my heart rate. I can look and see where my heart rate has been during the day, and where it is when I work out etc... It has also made me more active as it prompts me to get up and move around, and shows me how active I am during the day. I use it when I sleep in connection with an app to see how well I have been sleeping and where my heart rate is throughout the night etc.. The battery is supposed to last 18 hours, and it usually lasts a little over 24 hours. I'm very impressed with the watch so far.

    Hands Down the Best Smartwatch on the Market

    This is my second Apple Watch; I previously had the Series 3 42mm. To be honest, I am a loyal Apple customer. I have an iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Apple TV, etc. Apple makes incredible products, with high quality build and user friendly software. Typically, Apple products don’t have the latest and greatest tech inside of them. Samsung and other Android manufacturing companies usually seem to beat them to the punch with newer tech (I.e. In-display fingerprint sensors, folding displays). But in my opinion, Apple takes the necessary time to perfect their products. Right out of the box, their products just feel smoothed out. Both hardware and software just make sense. And the Apple Watch isn’t any different. All of the changes I had wanted from the Series 3 were addresses in the Series 5. The smaller bezels and larger display. The louder speaker. Always-on display is so nice, and I haven’t noticed a drain in battery because of it. I would say if you’re upgrading from the Series 4, it might not be worth it. But if you’re a Series 3 user or older, this upgrade is definitely worth it!!!

    Really Great Smart Watch. I Had The Series 3 Nike And Now This? it's unbelievable how much it's better than series 3. I Would highly recommend it. The battery is really really great it last a whole day and still have 30%-40% left. Always On Display Is Awesome, Gives it A Really Nice Look.

    Love this watch. Does everything that I need. Phone calls, texting, voice memo and much more. For those that are health conscious. This is a great watch to use to track your heart rate and ecg as well. I can get a good two days of use. Great looking watch as well.

    By this point everyone knows what they are getting with this. Best smart watch on the planet. Love the always on display. Downside is it only works with an iPhone. C'mon Apple open it up to the other side! I got it as an open box and on sale for around 310 bucks. A steal at that price.

    I always found the Apple Watch to be interesting but didn't know if it was right for me. Turns out I love everything about it. Fitness stuff is great. Battery lasts all day. Love getting notifications right on my wrist. Great product overall.

    The always on was a great addition. I no longer have to tap or shake my wrist to turn the screen on and the battery gets me through the day with plenty to spare. I love all the activity challenges and its fun getting alerts of friends workouts to help be active myself.

    Owned OG Apple Watch, but never found a reason to upgrade until now. The always-on feature for the watch display is a game-changer. No more having to raise your wrist at awkward times to check the time. And perfect for work-outs as well!

    Never thought I’d ever buy one but honestly it is life changing as far as tracking your fitness through out the day and just seeing the alerts through your watch instead of always having your phone right by your side.

    I switched from the series 4 to the series 5 and I couldn’t be happier. It is fast, the band looks great, and the Best Buy staff were super helpful and friendly trading in my old watch for the new one. Would highly recommend.

    I was a Fitbit guy for awhile now and wanted to try something new. I saw the new Apple Watch had been released and went for it. I bought the Nike sports watch. Off the bat the watch felt nice, isn’t too heavy on the wrist and secures very well with the many holes on the sports strap. Took some time getting use to operating it and customizing the way you want your interface too look and what you want exactly shown when looking at your watch. This was a gift for me but looking at the price I can see will be an issue for other people. It is a great quality smart watch and so far I’ve had no issues with it. Phone quality is great and other apps work as intended with no issues yet. I’ve had it since Christmas of this year and overall amazing watch!

    Had a Fitbit HR which I was very happy with. It recorded my steps and the software was great in keeping track. However, it died. I needed a replacement but I was not happy with the quality of the Fitbit from what I read so I went with the Apple Watch. Wow, what an upgrade! It does what I am looking for, keeping track of steps and other fitness activities via the Rings but what I love most is the notification features. Very productive. Went with the Nike Watch as it is the same as the regular but has the following additional features, 1) Sports band 2) More watch faces to choose from. I already have an iPhone so going to this was seamless. Very happy and satisfied. Would recommend!

    I recently purchased the new Series 5 (44 mm) Apple Watch. The larger screen makes all of the difference! The speed and reliability have also increased dramatically. I would definitely recommend this watch!

    I purchased this watch to replace my Samsung Galaxy watch as I made the switch from Android to Apple with my phone and I wanted my fitness watch to work seamlessly with my phone (as it did prior with the Samsung watch and phone). I can definitely say that this Apple Watch is a huge upgrade and I can do more with the Apple Watch than with the Samsung watch. Additionally the watch works get in the Apple ecosystem and I have no issues with data transferring from the watch to the phone and visa versa. Also the band is great quality and easy to remove or replace if needed.
