    I bought this one for my wife for Christmas. I purchased one for myself (used) last summer, and have been looking for one for my wife with the correct color and size requirements ever since. With the recent price drop of the series 3, I was able to buy a new one for only a little more than people were asking for used units. The usage I get out of my watch as a teacher is great with the ability to check my notifications quickly and keep doing what I’m doing. The fitness features, which were the main reason for my selection, give a great insight into my activity levels, without having to manually start a workout during high activity times. This is very useful in a dynamic work environment. If you were going to use it just for fitness, maybe a Fitbit would be better, but this is a better all around value, considering that comparable Fitbit units with the same water resistance are about the same price, and don’t integrate as thoroughly with the Apple ecosystem.

    I owned a Garmin fitness watch prior to the Apple Watch. I really liked the watch but it wasn’t very attractive. It had a higher profile and I would hit it on a lot of things. The Apple Watch has so many functions. I have only had it a couple of weeks and already have some scratches to the face. If you are really physically active, I would suggest getting the screen saver even if your daughter calls you a “nerd”.

    I really liked this product because it allowed my to be somewhat independant from my phone. It gave me the opportunity to stay on top of contacts and news without having to constantly reach into my bag to figure out what was buzzing. It also helped with my work-outs by keeping me motivated and aware of my goals. I felt good when I reached them, great when I surpassed them, and in the mood to do more when I was behind. All in all a great product, and one that I will continue to use for as long as I can.

    I love love my Apple Watch. I love the feel and the look it’s super sleek. The health apps help me a lot. I’m more self conscious of what I do regarding walking and burning calories. This is a great watch. I definitely recommend it.

    I needed a watch because I’ve recently become active and into fitness and would like to be able to track calories burned and what not. The series 4 and 5 were a little out of my budget but this watch was on sale for $180 so I snatched it up and love it so much!!! Talk to text is the absolute best just right at your wrist. With covid going on I can leave my phone in my purse and not have to worry about pulling it out if someone calls. Highly recommend.

    I work a desk job, and find it difficult to stay active. If you are in a similar situation, the Apple Watch is a great companion as I get stand up and “take a walk” reminders throughout the day. Further, it is intuitive and tracks your BPM and breathing patterns. When my heart rate elevates, I receive a notification to go through iWatches 1 minute breathing exercise. Over the past month it has helped me relax during stressful times at work. This product is far superior to my previous fitness trackers.

    I was a little skeptical about buying this as I’ve always been an avid Fitbit user. But it was on sale so I figured I would give it a shot. I’m so glad I did!! I love it! I get a lot more use out of it than I thought I would and the battery life is pretty decent. I can get through a whole day (for me that’s 5am-12am) and still have at least 40% battery left. Charges quickly. Step counts and heart rate info seem to be spot on in comparison with my normal readings. Would definitely recommend it

    The apple watch is the greatest thing since sliced bread!! I love being able to read and answer text without having to pull my phone out of my pocket. The fitness tracker seams to be very accurate as well. Would recommend for sure!

    This watch is great. You can change the watch face to many different options. It is very accurate on the activity tracker. It tracks movement, standing & exercise, steps & stairs climbed. If your iphone is nearby you can answer phone calls on the watch. If you have an iphone you can can a more detailed activity on your phone even a map if you take a hike or walk. I had a knockoff fitbit for a year & used it a lot, but I really like this watch. Battery life good & it charges really fast.

    Work as a paralegal and I am constantly on my phone. While I am on the phone, I get alerts on my apple watch for text messages or e-mails or even social media. I didn't really want one because I thought it was just a "trendy look" but I am mistaken. I think it is very useful for people who work in the medical field, business, or even students. (But don't wear them during exam week). This watch got me to start exercising and I love how it will keep track of it and tells me to move again. I'm glad I decided to get this.

    I loved my Apple Watch 1 but after three years it was falling apart. I went in to have it hopefully repaired but the salesman said it could not be. I purchased a 3 but a much less expensive model which I hope was not a mistake but I did not have $600 to buy the better one. So far it is working fine. The only complaint is the cheap band that came with it. Fortunately, my expensive link band from my other Apple Watch fit. I think there should be a choice in bands instead of the crummy one that was included.

    I had been doing review after review and weighing cost vs "will I actually use it" mentality... and let me tell you... just buy it! It's one of my greatest purchases! I have been tracking my activity and made it a point to fill up all my rings and I have found myself to be getting in great shape. It is so convenient when someone texts me and my phone is in my big "Awesome" purse, I can read the message and reply right then, without dumping my whole purse out! Great purchase, I don't not regret it one bit!!

    I absolutely love my Apple Watch. I’m not supposed to have my phone at work, which to I reply with “Are we in the dark ages people??” But anyways, I can get away with having my cell phone in my purse in my locker at work, & have my watch notify my when I get a message, or if I receive a phone call, & tracks all my progresses, as in walking, etc. I love it so much, & yes, I’ve even convinced coworkers to purchase one, & now the walk-in talkie feature is even more incentive to buy one now!
