    Use it a lot for the workouts and tracking of daily movements! Love it for that reason all the other stuff seems extra but works well! Nice jump from the original first Apple Watch! Battery life is much greater too!

    Was undecided on the Series 3 or Series 4 for my 17yo daughter for Christmas. When I saw the price for the Series 3 I couldn't turn it down. My daughter loves it. They also had plenty available being that it was Christmas eve when I purchased it.

    I bought this watch for my wife as a gift. She is not a techie by any stretch of the imagination. She has really liked it and has figured out how to utilize it to her advantage very quickly. The size is just right and she has had no problem with it at all.

    Don't spend the extra cash for the bells and whistles you'll never actually use. The Series 3 has everything to satisfy the fun and practicality of owning an Apple Watch.

    It was a Christmas gift for my wife. She loves it so far. She uses it often to ping her iPhone when she can't find it. That comes in very handy. I wasn't sure if the series 3 would seem outdated in comparison to the newer ones, but it has surpassed my expectations so far. This is a good device to start using with smart watches. If you don't have any experience with the newer series, then you don't really need to spend the extra $ for the latest features. This model does have to be paired with your iPhone and be within Bluetooth range in order to receive calls and messages. It does not require any additional cell or data plan! So far, my wife has not had any issues with the range in and around our home.

    I bought this watch when it went on sale and I’ve never been happier! Upgraded from a Fitbit blaze and this watch does everything and more that my previous one. Screen is slightly smaller than series 4 but this watch is basically the same!

    I have had other smartwatches by different manufacturers, but the Apple watch is by far the best! Ease of use, durable, and pleasant to look at! The range of watchbands available is astounding!

    I got this for my wife now I bought one for myself! I rarely take it off. Helps with workout goals, mobility and can use as a phone which has been great. Not sure I would ever upgrade to the cellular version though. I think I need to know I have my phone on me.

    I always have my apple phone with me so I didn’t think I would also need an Apple Watch, however, I was finding times I could not look at or answer my phone While at work and missed a call from my home alarm company and I need to know the time. I decided to by an older version to not spend as much money to give it a try and I love it. The display is hard to read without my glasses is my only negative and you have to move your wrist a certain way to light up the display which I knew when I purchased this model. I will eventually upgrade to the latest model and a bigger screen. I think if I had known how much I would love it I would have just put the money towards the latest one but I am happy!

    I had the series 1 Apple watch for 2 years and finally upgraded to the series 3. I should have made the switch a while ago. The 3 runs apps faster, has a brighter screen, siri activates on wrist raise and its water proof. I dont leave home without it!

    Honestly the only reason I bought this one is because they sold out of the series 2.

    I love that it tracks fitness but possibly the best thing is being able to answer texts and not having my son instantly want to touch every button on the phone, and it locates my phone that’s always missing when I’m running out the door!

    It’s a great way to track all your daily workouts. It’s nice not to have to pull my phone out of my pocket when I get a text, just look at the watch and read it. Then decide if I need to reply right away or wait

    This is a great watch. The battery last for 3 days without charging it and using the features like the workout and playing music. Fits perfectly too and I love how you can switch the band colors. Also wear it while I play sports and love how durable it is.

    This is the best smart watch on the market today. I use it primarily for workouts and for notifications so I don’t have to constantly look at my phone. It is comfortable and has lots of different band options. You will not be disappointed.

    I bought this Apple Watch to replace my Fitbit. The battery seems to last all day and charges pretty quickly. Best Buy did a price match for me to get the best deal on this watch.
