    My cell phone is a busy device, but I grew weary of picking it up for every beep and buzz. Initially, I got the iWatch because I could preview, very conveniently, what the notification was... then I started to use the health functions, like breathing, exercise, and standing. Not only am I moving more, my cell phone stays face down on my desk or in my pocket. There's something great about the haptic prompt on the iWatch that's much less jarring than the jingle, jangle, noise from my iPhone. Why four stars? I'd rather have 3 to 4 days of battery instead of 2. And, while I like the 42mm face, it wouldn't hurt to shave a few millimeters off the thickness. Try it... you'll like it... and it will grow on you.

    Kept waiting to buy the watch with cellular, but wanted to make sure I’d like the watch before spending the additional $$. So far so good, battery life in my opinion is good. It is very handy to have the notifications easy to see without pulling out the phone. Driving with maps works good. Pairing with the phone is simple and flawless. Easy to keep track of steps and workouts. Good product.

    This is a great watch. For everyday purposes I don’t think you need to get the cellular enabled. I mean you paid near a grand for your phone jus to leave it at home? But it’s a good buy if you have gen 6s phones and need a little tech boost. You’re just wasting money if you have 10X phone and the latest iwatch. I found myself not wearing any of my other regular watches because of this watch. It’s very useful and you feel like Dick Tracy or a power ranger or something. It’s a good watch. Worth the buy.

    Purchased as a Christmas gift for my son who averages running about 40 miles a week (and then the gym too). Gives him the convenience of no longer having to carry his iPhone X with him and still be able to make a call.

    I didn’t know I was going to love this watch this much! My favorite part is that it keeps me motivated to move more. I’m using it in conjunction with a Couch to 5k app and I’m running for the first time in my life.

    Only reason I got it was to keep track of my active life and it does exactly that.... helps me ready messages quickly and get notifications. Also the water proof features is excellent as I swim quite a bit and I’m able to track it.

    Right out of the box the watch itself looks very stylish. As a gadget, its kinda controversial. If you want it just for fun, its not worth it. If you cant check your iphone all the time, then this gadget is right for you. And once you get used to them, you cant go without them anymore. Im using them to check notifications, weather, time and as a stopwatch and charge lasts 2-2,5 days. Also there are a lot of very cool third party bands, so there are many ways to look stylish lol.

    I have been waiting for the new watch to come out and it is great. Battery lasts longer than expected. I end the day with about 70% left. Battery could last 2 days or longer if needed, even with heavy usage.

    Future Watch

    Apple watch 3 GPS purchase after series 1&2 releases and reading all the reviews. Seems like at this point the functionality is limited. Debated on cell version - don’t need it but maybe in the future. At that time tge watch will be totally different. Best use with watch is for fitness and health. Daily cyclist so that’s the main reason for purchasing and so far it fits the void between iphone and a monitor - especially while biking. Does an excellent job while biking - tracking everything on a ride. Apps needed but watch is made for this. It’s also cool just to wear as a watch that does much more. Hopefully series 3 will last for a while as the technology is probably increasing faster in iOS than anything else.

    First I got the cellular version, but ran into some glitches. I ditched the it and got the gps. When are you rarely without your phone? Gps is totally worth it. Don’t spend the extra money on the cellular.

    The series 3 watch offers a lot of technology for the tech savvy user.If you're on your way to a smart house, this watch is a nice addition. It enables the user to open and close wifi supported garage doors, see video capture images from video door bells, have clear phone conversations, track your exercise routines,show GPS directions using Apple Maps, plus a lot of other useful things. It's a bit pricey but reliability doesn't come without a price.

    Thought about purchasing the iWatch at the Apple store but Best Buy was more convenient. Product is great and the Best Buy sales rep was knowledgeable and helpful. He set up the watch for me in the store.
