    My Apple 3 watch is great for me. (Although, I still have many things to learn about it!) I'm 76 and technology is a bit of a challenge. I like its encouragement to get me up and exercise. I did choose to replace the band, however, with a magnetic mesh gold one. I like it better than the other style band. I watched two tutorials, and believe that I will watch 2 more. The price was way better than anywhere else.

    I have the white watchband and it is staying clean, it is a good material. I am using the Earth watch face and it is awesome. I am happy with my purchase. The Apple sales guy wanted me to upgrade to the higher level watch, of course, but I am glad I didn’t spend more money. I am happy with this watch, there was no need to spend another $200. This watch is perfect!

    I just needed a watch to track my activities and I know this is the older model but I would still highly recommend this product! Especially if you’re not trying to break the bank. Tbh I don’t know any cool new features with the 6 that just came out but this does everything I need to, from my workouts, steps, heart rate, my hikes, etc. I got the 38mm because I didn’t want it to look bulky on me.

    I was looking to replace my watch and wanted the 3. The price was a lot cheaper than any other retailers I was looking at. Like that it came with 3 month trial also.

    Apple Watch Series 3 38mm Silver Aluminum Case with White Sport Band - Silver Aluminum , even though an older generation still continues to be the best in the market for the price point ,features , support from apple , looks , apps , and the design. this serves each and every single purpose I expect my smart watch to do with great accuracy and satisfaction

    First Smart Watch

    My wife got a watch and wanted to to get one, was originally going to get the Samsung Gear Sport (Which my wife got and loves it), but I was worried about compatibility issues with my iPhone, so I opted to get this one. Have to say it does come in very handy being able to check messages without pulling out phone or even answering calls if phone is not near by. Can respond to text messages with voice, which is really great if your busy working. I do believe the heart rate monitor could use some improvement, sometimes when you first check it out, it spikes up or down, but checking pulse manually it seems to be generally in line. While new, battery will last 3 days if you turn it off overnight. but have to charge the second night if you wear it through the night. I don't have the time but it does seem to charge very fast. It is not as good as the Samsung for monitoring sleep patterns, hopefully they will come out with an app to better measure that. Would be nice if you could further customize some of the watch faces. Many will only let you have 1 widget on them, I like to have a couple and then switch faces depending on what I'm doing. Overall it is a great watch and extension to your phone and the price is not all that bad. I'll be curious to see how quickly it becomes obsolete (slows down or battery no longer works through the day).

    I debated about getting an iWatch for weeks. A friend of mine had the new version and was just thrilled by all it could do, especially in regards to the workout aspect. At dinner one night she showed me all the things it did along with her new silver magnetic band. I watched the ads to find one that couldn't break me financially, and then one day I stopped by a Best Buy store to "just look". Well... we all know how that turns out! I am quite petite and the new version was too large and expensive, however, the older 38mm version was also on display. I liked the lower price and how it fit on my small wrist. Then I left to "think about it" as it was on sale and would be for a while. Later that night I went back to adopt my new baby! I love my new watch and have no regrets on getting it. I finally have a watch that does pretty much anything I could ever need yet I can still customize it. I purchased a few other watch bands that aren't of the Apple family, however, they fit it just perfectly and for a lower cost. Totally recommend!!!

    Got this for my daughter. Amazing that this little device can do just as much as an iPhone. Great design, awesome functionality, and right now the series 3 is a great buy.
