    I went with the GPS only 38mm watch, as i don’t like big bulky wrist watches. It connected to my iPhone easily and works great. Always gets calls and alerts without a hiccup. Battery stays charged all day EASILY. I barely ever have to charge it, and it keeps my phone battery life extending due to not using it as often. I work outside and have hit it on branches and equipment and it holds up to some abuse. Overall for the price it has so many features i use daily and others i never use. Highly recommended for someone who doesn’t wanna spend a ton, but wants a reliable smart watch.

    I love my Apple Watch! I am on a fitness journey to shred fat and I depend heavily on my Apple watch to track all the calories I burn throughout the day. I only wish I could sync data from my iPhone over wifi instead of Bluetooth because syncing music over Bluetooth is so slow! Overall though, the watch is a great product to use when trying to stay fit!

    I do love my Apple watch. It syncs great, it’s a very convenient when receiving texts as I my phone is usually on the desk while I’m moving around. It’s very user friendly. My 4/5 stars is because of the band. I’m have average male wrists and the band is snug if not too small. One more hole in the band would be perfect, but it’s not there. I need to get an aftermarket band for the length.

    Apple Watch 3 in 2021

    Although we are in 2021, I decided to get a Apple Watch 3 to see if I like it, and I am loving my Apple Watch. It has been useful to track my exercises and my calories, it tracks them precisely. Cons: There are just a few missing things comparable to my Fitbit that Apple Watch doesn’t display the total of calories on the watch, just the active calories, but you still can see the total using the app on the iPhone. Also, a pedometer is not included, you need to download an app to see it on your watch. That is still a good buy in 2021. If you had a Fitbit just be aware of simple features that we will miss having an apple watch.

    Purchased because it was on sale, wasn’t paying attention that it was the series 3, but it has worked well. The only real issue I have it the battery doesn’t last more than a day, and that’s after I turned off notifications and other things.

    I got this for my 13 year old brother and he loves it, matches my series 5. Very user friendly like most apple products. Does have a few glitches where the screw gets stuck in zoom mode. Other than that he loves it.

    I went from a series 1 to this watch. It was such a huge difference. I highly recommend this Apple Watch. There are so many options that the series one didn’t have.
