    Fits my needs perfectly watch face size is perfect not too overbearing or too small battery life is amazeballs. Price is great for what I received and what I needed can’t complain. Ended up purchasing another for my husband and now going to be purchasing a third for my daughter that’s graduating.

    I was using Android Wear before and now switched to the Apple Watch with my new iPhone X. I am very pleased with the watch. The build is solid and Apple has nailed it with the Apple Watch OS 4.1 update. With all notifications, I get solid 2 days of battery life. I get more on the weekend when I have fewer notifications to deal with. If you already have an iPhone and thinking to jump on the smartwatch bandwagon, then Apple Watch is a great choice! You will not regret it!

    With GPS only the battery life is amazing 48+ hours. It's faster and has a brighter screen than my series 1 as well. I would say unless you want to make calls while working out don't pay for the cellular version. The GPS only is perfect.

    This device works great, and I’ve always enjoyed the ability to track my fitness and receive notifications. However, I do feel it’s overpriced for the simple features that it provides.

    An Investment That is Worthwhile

    Let me start off by saying my wife had to convince me to buy one because of the price. All I wanted was a luminox divers watch. I caved and bought it and also bought the catalyst watch case for it since I tend to be rough on watches and I spend a lot of time doing hands on type work and water activities like fishing. Needless to say the watch has really grown on me. I can answer calls on it, control Pandora from it, turn off my alarm (which is priceless, lol), set timers, track workouts, ensure I’m not lazy by beating my goals each day via the movement rings for exercise, movement, calories and standing. And on and on. Battery life is awesome. Mine will last about two days. I can tell time in the dark. The weather is right on my wrist. Etc. If you’re on the fence or you’re saying “but that’s a lot of money, you’re right. It isn’t cheap, exactly, it isn’t cheap. It’s a pretty awesome little computer that does a multitude of super handy functions right there on your wrist. I’m picky what I spend my money on and for me it’s been worth it.

    I had an original Apple Watch. The upgrades are better. I’m sure a 4 or a 5 would be better. I love how easy it is to use. From tracking my workouts to adjusting the music to using Apple pay. I would recommend this to anyone.

    Here’s the thing, I am not one to buy high priced items often. I’m pretty cheap until I do enough research to be pretty confident that it’s worth the money. I watched review after review, some for and some against, before making the decision to buy the Apple Watch. Now that I have it, I can honestly say it is well worth the money! It does everything perfectly, looks amazing, and it syncs up perfectly with my iPhone and Apple TV! I’m not a runner, not really into working out as a whole- I do it only because I have to- so I was a little concerned getting it as all you really read, watch, or hear is all about the fitness capabilities of this device. It does have a great many things to help in that area, but that’s not all. It’s an awesome thing to be able to scan my email, iMessages, or even take a phone call, without pulling out my iPhone. So if you’re not a fitness buff, don’t fret. This is an awesome device for just about anybody.

    My granddaughter loves it and wears it everyday

    I purchased 2 on Black Friday my granddaughter loves hers she wears it everyday. I also purchased one for myself and also love it. I enjoy seeing how much I walk a day I also like the breathing exercises, and heart rate. I was hoping to use it for sleep however it’s not comfortable enough to sleep with. While I’m at work I leave my phone on my desk the volume isn’t that loud however I can tell the incoming caller to hold til I get to my phone, I can also respond to texts from my watch. I really think it was worth the money and I got them for $259.00 on Black Friday. I didn’t feel I needed the cellular and I haven’t missed not getting it.

    The apple watch was in awesome, new condition. Although the box was opened, everything was there and untouched. I recommend getting the open-box version than the new version, because you save money and it is basically the same thing.

    Wonderful product! Bought one for myself and one for my wife. We love everything about them! The fitness app, heart rate monitor and the step counter are fantastic for helping us get/stay in shape. They sync with your iPhone if you select that option. They have speakers and walkie talkie functions. Alarms, access to most of your apps, haptic feedback for notifications, events, reminders, messages, etc. Chock full of features. Not the largest Apple Watch but not the smallest either. FYI this model is not cellular capable.

    I bought this 2 years ago and my biggest concern was if it would last. So far it’s been great, I did buy a 3rd party case to protect it after I scratched a corner. I use it for walks and working out and it’s great for getting texts to my watch. The only thing I hate is having to charge it so often. I love tracking my sleep so if you do the same get used to seeing “Low Power” messages almost every day. Otherwise it’s worth it and I wasn’t spending more than $250 for a watch.

    Being able to monitor my H/R and activities is really great. The battery is great. I can go a couple of days on one charge, 3 days a few times. It’s all about the use folks. If it’s used like your cell, then the hours are cut short. I use it to check my mail or text. Other thank that, not much else.

    Can’t think of anything negative to say. I had to get leather wrist bands that would contour my skinny wrists better. To change the bands you just push a button on the back while sliding it out. I also advise you buy some sort of protective cover. I didn’t realize how often I hit things with my wrist. You can’t listen to music on it but you can control the music that is played on your phone or wireless earphones, from it. As long as you have your phone nearby, you can receive calls and text or make them. I don’t know how far you can be before it loses connection. I’ve been at one end of my house (a two story) and my phone at the other end of the house and was able receive phone calls! It’s not heavy to wear.

    Perfect watch for the price. Easy to use and enjoy. It syncs easily with an iPhone and keeps track of all appointments, exercise, weather, and more convenient to use for a fast check on anything rather than the iPhone. The many different watch bands available make for an easy and fast style change.

    I like this Watch better than my Apple Watch Series 1 because it really stays charged. I forget to change my watch over night and it still be charged up to 75%. This is my 3rd Apple Watch and I have no regrets.

    I will admit that I held out for quite some time before purchasing the Series 3 and even shopped around for a Series 2 because I wasn’t sold on the differences between the two but I’m glad I went with the 3! It’s fast, the battery life is astounding, the GPS is such a great added feature and having a remote for my music (my Series 1 didn’t offer it as far as I can remember) is wonderful. The screen is crisp and ultra-responsive, Siri is helpful and a quick tap away when I have her Watch face displayed. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and look forward to keeping this model for a long time. Apple will have to change quite a few things for me to want an upgrade.

    I am in love with my Apple Watch. My coworkers bought them too because they could see how easy and comfortable to use it. You don’t have to carry your phone with you because everything you need is. In your watch. I love everything about it. You can but watch bands different colors for different occasions and also protection screens.

    I’ve bought 3 apple watches for love ones and they were so happy. The first one was dropped and broken so I go her another one which was my second purchase and she was super happy. She felt bad for the broken watch but there’s nothing I would not do for my daughter! The third watch watch was for my girlfriend and she was more excited than both watches I bought for my daughter. Making them happy is my job!!!!
