The product is amazing, worked perfectly right out of the box, and the overall shopping experience was smooth and easy. I really appreciate the great customer service and how simple it was to find exactly what I needed. Thank you for making the process quick and hassle-free!

    Husband proof watch

    I bought this watch for my husband. He absolutely loves it. He is a delivery truck driver and his favorite mode is the gps. Whenever he needs to turn left or right his watch will let him know which way. This is a great safety feature. Since I do not wear my Fitbit as much, he’s always able to tell me the time (I am constantly asking for the time). Another great thing about the Apple Watch is how sturdy it is. When my husband is on deliveries, he carries and puts together heavy furniture for people and his watch is still in perfect condition. He doesn’t even have any kind of protection on it. It’s insane to me!

    I originally got it to just track my workouts but I ended up using it for everyday wear, it’s very convenient and fun to have. Easily cleanable and in my opinion an affordable price. As well as the batter life is pretty great and the amount of time it takes to charge is incredibly fast

    Apple Watch review - JD

    Good product. I like the wrist band - comfortable and easy to take on and off. I am still learning all the things I can do with the watch. I bought it to track an exercise program and it is working fine for that purpose. The battery only lasts about 24 hours though. I would like it to last 36 to 48 hours. I chose this watch based on price, then features. I didn't want to pay for the latest/greatest.

    The Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen (GPS) with the 40mm Ink Sport Loop is amazing! It’s lightweight, comfortable, and looks sleek on my wrist. I love tracking workouts, steps, and heart rate, and the GPS is spot-on for runs. Notifications and calls sync perfectly with my iPhone, making life easier. Battery lasts all day, and the design is stylish enough for any occasion. It’s the perfect mix of fitness, convenience, and style — definitely worth every penny!

    I Love My New Apple Watch!

    My old Apple Watch SE was fading (battery) when I decided to purchase a new one. I really liked the appearance of this new model. I liked the color combinations of the watch itself, its band, and it was on sale. I had never seen it's price so low before and didn't want to be without an Apple Watch. I liked the fact that this new SE had all the functions of the old one plus some new ones. It was important to me that it has the ability to sense if I had a bad fall or if I was in an auto accident. It can contact my iPhone to get help via 911...a good safety feature for anyone, especially seniors. It contacts me when my groceries are ready for pick up, keeps me updated on the weather conditions, etc. This Apple Watch has plenty of convenient features without being overloaded or complicated. I like the ease of use, simplicity of keeping it's software up to date and the variety of "apps" which come on it. What really sealed the deal was the sale price & the fact that the folks at my local Best Buy have always been very helpful, friendly, courteous and professional. The purchase was easy...on line through my local Best Buy & picking it up at my local pick up Best Buy store. The support for Apple products has always been excellent there. Love my new Apple SE Watch! Perfect!

    The Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen is exactly what I needed. The design is sleek, the Lake Green Sport Loop is comfortable and lightweight, and the Starlight aluminum case looks premium. Setup was effortless and the watch pairs seamlessly with my iPhone. Fitness tracking is accurate, notifications are convenient, and the interface is intuitive. I also love the integration with Apple Fitness+—it motivates me to stay active every day. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a versatile, stylish smartwatch.

    Some features may be missing, but for typical smartwatch needs it works perfectly. Especially for teenagers, the affordable price makes it very satisfying. Although it needs to be charged daily, a short charge during a shower is usually enough.

    I bought this as a replacement for my first gen Apple Watch when it's battery expanded and the screen separated from the watch. Only took 10 years!! I settled for the 40mm since the 38mm is no longer produced, and it's a great piece. Does everything I need it to do - but some of the face design choices are now gone, so I can't reproduce the one I had on the old watch. Oh well. I recommend the SE to all who do not need or want all the 'additional' bells and whistles the more expensive models offer.
