    If you are in a budget this is way faster that the original. If you need it to be waterproof, get the series 2.

    Ok so I never thought I’d buy one of these things people wear on their wrist just to see time. I mean my phone those that. Lol. But I bought this for my wife who is a nurse. She is having trouble with battery life on watch and phone when paired with each other. We received Geeksquad Free set up. And I think we need to take there now. I’ll add to review after.

    It's a great product and It makes it easier to be able to tell time and to be able to see messages. I also enjoy all the options this product has to offer. To be able to switch the bands just wish apples weren't as expensive so you didn't have to buy knock offs brands.

    I originally bought a fitbit blaze and I loved it except I could read only my messages, that I had received a call and who it was from but could not respond...I had just bought my first I-phone and decided to upgrade to an I watch...I love it for all the communication reasons but I do not like the activity tracker as much...I am thinking of trying the I watch series two to see if there has been any improvement...if not I may go back to the fitbit blaze...

    This was a gift for my wife, I am not necessarily an apple fan, even though I was part of the test market group for the feasibility of the applications in school back in 1978. This is a product that I would purchase for myself if I did not need the phone.

    Love this watch! Everything about it. Unfortunately it was an open box and I was told there was nothing wrong with it, but when I got home there were scratches on the face. I returned it and plan on buying the upgraded series 2 when I save a little more money.

    I have used a Fitbit last 3 years, but wanted more features. The ability to see an email or text without pulling my phone out is great feature as I work two jobs and need to see what is coming through on email and texts throughout the day. Love the activity apps.

    I purchased this as an anniversary present to my wife. She loves it! I do however think a watch is TWO THINGS: it tells time and serves as jewelry. This product is more about function and status.... It's very agnostic looking....not feminine nor masculine, just....there. lol If you are committed to the Apple ecosystem with your phone and computer...just do it I guess. Snatch it on a Deal of the Day like I did and then it's worth the cost.

    I was waiting for the Apple Watch Series 2 Nike Edition, and once it came out, I couldn't justify the $400 price. I got the Series 1 watch during the Christmas sale, and I love it so far. I would prefer a round face watch. I also would prefer a larger face, perhaps 46mm. The 42mm size is still too small for my wrist. With all of the cool apps and features, a larger watch face would be ideal. I hope there will be apps to modify and customize watch face.

    I just switched over to apple from android and decided to get the Apple Watch along with my apple conversion. The phone and watch I believe compliment each other. Functionality worked great, loved the features, receiving texts, gps on my wrist, and durable!

    Better looking in person

    Before purchasing my Apple Watch, I looked at both series 1 and 2, and 38mm and 42mm... now online you can't tell actually how big the screens are. Initially I wanted series 2 38mm, only for the water proof feature. But once in store, 38mm was to small, after playing with the display, I opted for series one. They're exactly the same (except for one is water proof with GPS) plus I wanted the black, but this one looks way better in person than online.

    I think it is great being able to answer and talk on my phone with this watch while my actual phone is charging! The series 1 is everything I need, from talking on the phone to getting emails and texts right on my wrist. Absolutely love it!! =-)

    I haven't worn a watch for years, so I really wasn't that interested in the Apple Watch when it was released. I finally decided to get one and I'm glad I did. It is the perfect complement to the iPhone. I would like the haptic feedback to be a bit stronger.

    Best Buy has really stepped up their customer service. Apple Watches are good and you can get them anywhere but the service I got and the level on knowledge from the Best Buy associate was really helpful in deciding which model and if I really wanted this product.
