    I got this for my girlfriend and she never takes it off. She wears it to sleep and when she showers. It tells you so much info about activities you do and it has almost every function a smartphone has. This is a phone on your wrist. You can text, use navigation, make calls, and 100s of other things.

    This device is beautiful, but my wife exchanged it for the cellular edition. Still needing the phone nearby seemed like it wasn’t as much of an improvement.

    I bought this for my wife as most of her co-workers have one and she has dropped hints recently. She was elated to say the least. Set up was very easy, made sure BT was on and loaded the app and that was it. The "get moving" reminder is very nice as is the camera control from the watch. I also purchased a protector screen for her. This is a must, along with Geek Squad protection for those just in case moments. The OS is strong, almost bulletproof, texting, email and google searches are a snap. this thing can be tweaked to anyone's liking. I wish I would have bought it sooner. Set up reminders, record notes. you name it , this does it.

    I retired my series 1 Apple Watch and upgraded to a series 3. I am finally able to get fitness credit for my daily swim. Really appreciate the waterproof capability. Great product.

    Bought this over two years ago and have not had any problems! I love it. I pretty much wouldn’t have any idea what day of the week it was without it! Also love paying for my Starbucks and being able to answer my cell phone with it if my phone is in the other room. And that is without a calling plan on it. However, you cannot call out without a calling plan. I also love the health apps. Keeping up with my heart rate, reminding me to stand and breathe and it gives me a goal each day to reach with my activity level. Well worth the purchase!

    I am so pleased with my purchase! I love all the different interfaces and useful apps associated with the watch. I love how versatile it can be because i am a lefty and i can change everything to make it work perfectly for me! I can’t wait to buy a few more bands so I wear it with everything!

    I was a die hard pebble fan. Sadly there not around anymore. My search ended when I got the Apple Watch. I do miss the always on display and week long battery but it is no problem to charge it each night. I don’t really need a watch while I sleep. It’s a worthy upgrade with a few trade offs.

    I've never been one to stick with wearing a watch, but I had some extra money and wanted to give a smart watch a real shot. I can't imagine not having one now! I think the thing I love most is it routes all your iPhone notifications through the watch, and since it taps your wrist, it's really hard to miss anything. I also love the reminders to stand, and I got an app that reminds me to drink water and let's me log my daily process. Also, considering the price difference, I think the Series 3 is much more worth it than the Series 5, for my needs at least.

    I bought this Apple Watch Series 3 watch after my Apple Watch Series 1 "exploded" with the face popping off because the battery had heated up and expanded. Apple said they would not replace it because it was out of warranty, even though they had previously replaced it once before when the watch was also out of warranty. (My wife's iPhone had a similar problem, twice, and Apple replaced it twice.) The Series 3 has longer battery life, can talk to you, and has a built-in GPS, but otherwise is pretty much the same as the Apple Watch Series 1.

    I didn't see a need for smart watches when they first came out.. thought I would never get one. My wife talked me into getting this for Christmas last year tho and now I don't know what I would do without it. I definitely would suggest this for anyone who wants to stay fit.. it really motivates me to get out there every day and do the stuff I need to do to stay in shape.

    Larger Size = better for me

    The larger size watch face/screen is much better for me. My son and wife have the 38mm. Those seem fine for them, but I appreciate the larger size. If you have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is a nice complement to it. No way I would spend that much on the newest one, so I bought this on sale, after the next gen (series 4) has come out. I really like it and don't mind wearing it day to day even though I'm not a watch person. It's mostly nice to know your phone is ringing (if you're a leave it on vibrate kind of person) and to get notifications quietly. Highly recommend if you are on the fence...

    This watch has surpassed all my expectations. I bought this one for myself after buying one for my wife and seeing how much she enjoyed using hers. I like the daily activity log and how it gives you updates throughout the day. The watch also works great with other apps such as My Fitness Pal and UA Record. I use this watch daily for texts and checking email on the go as well for my fitness needs. I have recently started using it with wireless headphones, which synced effortlessly, to listen to music as I work out. That process was easy to follow as well. I would definitely recommend this watch.
