    This is my first Apple Watch, and maybe my expectations were too high. The watch is good for checking alerts and utilizing certain apps loaded on my iPhone. This comes at a cost however in that the battery life is horrible. When I first got the watch I was getting 10-11 hours of battery life. I essentially had to turn off all notifications but text, and turn off the auto wake up feature to get 15 hours. I have to carry the charger with me at all times to ensure that I dont lose life of the watch. The one nice thing is the auto switch to power saving mode. When the watch hits a critical low it will only display the time. The features on the watch are nice. Being able to completely customize the screens is a plus. Overall if you are going to buy this watch for activity tracking I wouldn't recommend it. You will not be able to wear it for a day solid without having to take it off to charge it.

    Was hesitant on this to start, not a huge watch wearer and spending this kind of money on a watch took me awhile. Having now for a month, I find myself using it way more then I thought I ever would. Not a huge exercise nut, but I do some and it is nice to keep track of steps (I'm an instructor and constantly walk around the room while instructing). The ability to make and receive calls on it is nice, though I don't use that feature a lot. The texting I do use and the voice to text works quite well. Oh...I also like toys and yeah, this is a nice toy.

    My girlfriend and i are apple product lovers. The simplicity of design, usability of software and elegance of hardware design. I got this for her as a christmas gift and she loves it. I had mines for over a year and we both use the watches daily for working out, talking on the phone, receiving messages, and quick text replies. It's a wonderful extension to your apple iphone. Get this if you really enjoy technology and are active. That's what we have found it to be the most useful for. You can actually do without it, but it's "nice to have".

    I have always liked apple, but never liked the price. I have had 3 phones that were android, but once I bought an iPhone, I wanted the Apple Watch. I ended up paying the full price (what I didn't want to do). I bought the Series 1 because I couldn't bring myself to pay $100 more for one extra component. I'm glad to say that I love this product!! I use it everyday, it is so much easier to text and make sure I get important alerts while at work or while I am in class. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking about buying one!

    Yes it may be the first generation but it does everything that I need. Love the fact that I can respond to a text via my watch, or get directions, and even check my calendar. Well worth it and even better when it is on sale.

    I purchased the apple watch for my fiancé and he absolutely loves all of the features and everything you can do with it! It connects to all of the apps on your iphone and it is a handy little tool..Definitely recommend! Convenient for quick messaging, answering phone calls, and searching for directions. The activity app allows for you to set daily goals (steps per day, calories bured, etc) so it comes in handy for fitness as well!

    I was stuck between the apple watch or a fitbit, but for about $150 I got the apple watch that does more. Personally, I love the fitness goal notifications and the fact that when I don't have my phone in my hand, my watch notifies me of messages or calls, etc.

    Wow, I absolutely love the apple watch. I was wondering what all the hype was about so I decided to get one. I wanted to save as much money as I could on it so decided to get an open-box product. The open box product I chose was marked a lower price than what it should have been. Instead of trying to change it on me or trying to change the price, a manager gladly overwrote it. Thank you very much! Great price, and it's awesome. You won't regret it. Also you might want to physically go into the store, you might find special deals!

    I love this iwatch. The screen is bigger than the other one. This one is the 42 mm. Even though it’s the series 1 , it still work just as fine as the other one. It has preset apps built in and it also has a workout app that track ur workout,steps, calories count, ect. It does a lot. I were my all the time. I replace it with my other watches. Hope they don’t get jealous lol and the bands come out just in case you want to change them out for different ocasiones.

    Besides the as-advertised items such as activity tracking, apps, etc. I have been pleasantly surprised by how convenient other features such as phone and text are with the watch. Something as simple as not being tethered to my phone when at home is a nice bonus. The Bluetooth means I still get my calls and texts on my wrist vs carrying my phone around the house. Battery charge easily goes two days - including one hour workouts each day. I'm not saying this is a must have - but definitely completes the iOS environment.
