Customers are enthusiastic about the Apple Watch Series 3's ease of use, fitness tracking capabilities, and its overall value for the price. Many appreciate the long battery life, GPS functionality, and the watch's size and design. While some users mentioned issues with the band and the lack of cellular connectivity in certain models, the positive feedback on features significantly outweighs the negative comments.

    Nice watch but it would not work without the phone near it. I am glad that they finally made one that does. I’m going to trade it in.

    Cool gadget but save your money and get a Fitbit. Heart rate monitor and sleep monitors are subpar at best and I’m constantly charging it. The only reason to have an Apple Watch is to keep up with the Jones’s

    The only complaint is the charge life. I have to charge it every night. I ended it giving it to my daughter because the screen is just a little to small for my older eyes. I'll stick with my iPhone.

    I gave this watch away because it wasn’t something I saw was beneficial. I liked the fact that it had the fitness features, and you can see who’s calling or texting you. It good for a kid in school.

    Did not know the Apple Watch did not track automatically, you must tell it that you are exercising. It does not offer or give you the opportunity to join challenges that does not include people you know.

    The average stars is for the color and design option. There was not enough varieties for colors. either black or white and no option for the wristband. I guess that is the price for an older model!

    Although I like my watch it was supposed to be a surprise from my husband and the request to review the visit ruined my surprise. I am very dissatisfied and will probably not get anything else at Best Buy

    From my experience, the 38mm is a tad bit too small. I had purchased the GPS one but found it a tad bit useless. I still do not see the point in having one, but some may like it.

    After purchasing this watch I decided to return it for the larger version (42mm). Honestly, this watch was too small to access the apps conveniently. Fits well on a small wrist.

    The price does not justify for the basic things it can do. Samsung Galaxy Watch can do more for cheaper price. I only got it as a gift for an Apple user. Not a fan of overpriced Apple products.

    Great watch but dies way too quickly. Had to exchange it in store. I’m pretty sure that the first one we got was used( bought new) It wasn’t packaged correctly

    Its an older model, but worth the money if you want to see if you will use the watch for its worth. I recommend cases and apple care, they can be very fragile.

    The only complaint I have is that the series 3 screen is easily scratched. I've only had it for 2 weeks and it's all scratched up. Otherwise good watch. Get a screen protector!

    Poor battery life

    Compared to other smart watches, battery life is poor. The display is very good/bright but that's what makes it a sldimb design. The watch wasn't for me anyway and the recipient lives it.

    I used fitbit for a long time and had a lot of recommendations for the Apple Watch, I'm not a fan of how many apps you need, and how often you have to charge it.

    If you can afford to upgrade to a newer model please do so. The glass and mechanics are much stronger than this product. Breaks easy if dropped on certain materials.

    It’s a nice watch for beginners, can’t really do much with it. Guess next time I’ll get the higher one just to be able to do more with it.
