    This watch works very well and is extremely durable. I work on cards and outside a lot. When I was working on my car and reach into the engine compartment I thought I scratched the watch when it hit the alternator, but no scratch at all. I love the calendar sync with my day at work. and use turn by turn function while GPS is working and I am driving.

    Purchases as a gift for our 15 year old son. He runs cross country so we wanted the GPS functions for tracking his milage. Being a typical teen, he has to stay connected to his friends and he thinks it is cool to text via voice through the watch. He easily connected it to his phone and keeps discovering new things he can do each day

    You cannot go wrong with the Series 3 at this price point. For a full smart watch at under 200 dollars is an outstanding value. Even with the recent release of the series 5, this watch still holds up. It’s durable, great battery, fast and responsive. This is a great gift option for anyone looking for a smart watch!

    This watch serves every purpose I need it to. I love how accessible all the timers and other apps are at a few touches and all I have to do is raise my wrist to read a text or email. As much as a nuisance one might think, the exercise reminder apps really help foster some better life style habits to be a little more healthier.

    Fantastic bit of kit, highly recommend purchasing it. You can monitor calls, txt and emails just by looking at your watch, tell Siri to txt/call someone while driving and people don’t even realize you’re talking through your watch while keeping your hands on the steering wheel!!! Can’t tell you how pleased I am!!

    This watch is amazing and makes my everyday routines so much easier. I can keep in contact with all my family/friends without ever pulling my phone out of my pocket. It pretty much manages my life for me. It was definitely one of the best purchases I’ve made in recent years.

    We're very happy with the series 3. It does everything we need it to do and we felt that we wouldn't be using all the series 4 has, thus, saving quite a bit of money.

    Bought the Apple Watch for my wife instead of a FitBit. She loves the extra functions on the Apple Watch. She can track all her fitness measures as well as receive calls and texts, weather updates and lots more. She now wears her Apple watch full time and has several interchangeable bands to go with different outfits. Great product, Apple!

    I had my eye on the apple watch for some time now but couldn't see paying so much for it. When my fitness tracker died I looked again and got an excellent bargain from Best Buy. I really like this cool tech and would have given 5 stars except for the battery life. It is very inconvenient to have to charge it everyday. Other than that I am loving it. It counts my steps and heart rate...gives notifications on your wrist...Siri and voice commands...controls the camera on my phone (no need for that selfie stick now)...best of all it controls the music on the stereo at the gym so I don't have to keep running to the box after every song.

    As as mom and a day dare provider, I am always busy and have my hands full. And with my Apple Watch I can do pretty much anything my phone can do. But I didn’t my habr to hold it. It’s a big help to my everyday life and I love everything about it! & I couldn’t beat the total price of $256, including tax!!! I’m super excited about this!

    We purchased this for our mom and she was so excited to receive it. This model is sleek and very easy to set up. You need to have at least an iPhone 7 or newer for it to be compatible. I love it that Best Buy price match. They matched the price of one of their competitors. We love it and she loves it!!!

    I'm happy I did my research before purchasing on pricing. Best buy was the only place that had this item that cheap. The watch was for my son's birthday I placed the order and I quickly received it. I also love the updates sent to me on where my package was through out the day made me feel safe about my purchase.

    Huge disappoint

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am so disappointed. I purchased an Apple Watch 3 with cellular. I had owned an Apple Watch 1 and loved it and so I was excited about upgrading my product. After having the watch for about three months I started having problems. The Apple watch white logo go would appear. So I would reset the watch. I had to do this twice. Then one morning I started noticing cracks along the side. I took it to the Apple store and explained my situation. He told me that he could send it for repair but that I should be prepared for them to claim that I damaged it. I did nothing to it. I was always careful. I never even got it wet, even though Apple claims you can. I only owned a his for three months. I just received back my product with a letter claiming it can’t be repaired. So Apple no longer stands behind their products? And I’m out $350 after three months with nothing to show for it...that’s bogus!

    What can I say. It’s Apple. Personally I have ALWAYS had a positive experience with the company. If I ever had a problem or just a question they are always there for me to fix, inform or hold my hand through the process in question. That being said, the 3 series is for my daughter so we can work out together using the Fitness +, which is included now that I consolidated my monthly Apple Subscriptions. I broke our rule and opened it up to charge it. However, it wanted to be “setup” right then. Since she is in my Apple Family, I have access to all of her necessary information. I knew she would want to do the setup herself while she familiarized herself the functions. The first impression of the watch was very favorable. I especially liked the fact that Apple included a choice of band length. I look forward to ordering my 7 series today.

    Apple watches are just plain solid are if you're into tech gadgets, this is a very useful one to have with your iPhone. I love it that I can go running with this and it not only keeps track if my workout, but I can play my music with it connected to my bluetooth earbuds.
