    This is my second Apple watch. I had a lot of trouble setting up the first one. Spent time on line with apple. This one set up with no problems. The battery in the new watch is much superior to the older unit, There are many upgrades on the new unit that are very useful.

    As my Apple Watch Series 1 finally died, I wanted to quickly purchase a new watch. The Series 3 was sale priced at Best Buy and I immediately purchased it. So far, I love it even more than my Series 1 and it has everything i need and more.

    I love this watch. I can text and call off of it. The only downside is it has an update but I can’t update it because I don’t have enough room. I’m also not a tech person so I’m sure it’s user error. I am about to buy one for my husband too.

    I resisted buying an Apple Watch until recently. With my Fitbit Blaze doing a lot that an Apple Watch could, I convinced myself I just didn’t need it. I still know that I could easily live without it, but I came down with a bad case of tech envy and decided to try it when BestBuy discounted this one for Fathers Day. In short, I love it mostly because the seamless integration with my iPhone works so much more smoothly than my Fitbit worked with its app. My son was thrilled to get the Fitbit, and although I miss the Fitbit’s battery life, I’m happy enough with this AW for now.

    Easy to set up and quickly able to use it. There is little to dislike this watch unless you're in the market for the latest and greatest in which case you're looking at the older model of Apple watch. Overall, a great watch for iot and seamless connectivity enthusiasts.

    Love my new Apple Watch. It will take me awhile to learn how to use all the features, but I'm working on it. Found a very simple book at Barnes & Noble. The face is easy to read & I am instantly notified of all texts, phone calls & security camera alerts, without having to carry my phone wherever I go.

    I like the watch a lot. Sometimes I do miss text notifications because with the watch on, my phone screen does not light up when I receive texts, instead it vibrates my watch which I can’t always feel when I’m moving around. It is easy to use and makes communicating on the go much easier.

    Love this watch. I always have my phone on me so I opted for the version without cellular and am ok with saving $10/mo ($120/yr). Love that it’s water resistant. The brushed gold at first was a little to pink for me but it’s grown on me. Has been super helpful at work with meeting reminders-have not been late for any meetI gave since I got this!! One downfall is I notice sometimes when I move my wrist to look at display, the display is black and I realllly have to flail my wrist around. Also my phone battery discharges much faster bcs location services connected w my watch.

    I used to always to forget to check my apple watch, but now I don't miss a single notification! I love the fitness feature! It has saved me from several traffic Jams and helps me find my way with the blinker feature buzzing right before I need to turn! It's even waterproof? What more could you ask for?

    I bought this for my mom, Christmas 2018. So far, so good. She even hooked it up herself. She loves it! I recently bought her a bunch of straps to change and go with her outfits. She uses to get text messages and phone calls, as well as keep her step count. She loves it, then I love it :)

    I bought this as a gift for my mom and she loved it. Was an upgrade for her from an older model. Overall great watch and does absolutely everything she wanted. Very happy with purchase. Wish it came with a different color band and not necessarily white.

    Already begin part of the apple family with cell phones and a computer, the watch was a natural addition. Tracking activity daily as well as being able to have remote control over audio my house is great but pinging my phone to find where I left is the most often used tool.

    My wife switched from a Fitbit to this and loves it! She was surprised how light it worked and its functional abilities are more than her previous one. She considered a higher model but this basic watch is working wonderfully for her.
