    I had purchased the Apple Watch since the first one came out. but this model beats them all, longer battery life, LTE enabled and the water proofing...I use this watch daily and I like the notifications I get for standing up or go walk or whatever I need to do. ya it can get a bit uncomfterble at times but I would expect it from a watch like this

    Best Smartwatch Ever!

    I had been wanting to get an Apple watch for a while and finally got the Series 3. I don't know why it took me so long to do it! This watch perfectly complements your iPhone and with the Series 3, includes GPS and water resistance up to 50M. It's perfect to take out on hikes, for workouts, runs, even swimming! I never leave mine at home. The battery life lasts for 4-5 days after a single charge, and I have all sorts of twitter/facebook notifications come through every day. It's amazing how long the battery lasts. In my opinion, this is the must get smartwatch. Much much better than anything else out there!

    I waited for this series to be released, and I am totally happy with my Apple Watch. I previously owned a FitBit but I wanted something more elegant and compatible with my iPhone, and this met all my expectations. I only wish I could track futbol activity a little better.

    Never saw the reason to have an iWatch, but after review of the product and the BB sale during Mother's Day sales this year at $50 less than the asking price, I went for it and glad I did. This is an amazing product that compliments not only your iPhone, but health, fitness, etc. You easily can monitor your fitness activity, heart rate, answer telephone calls (like a "Dick Tracy" watch setup), respond to texts, etc. without having your iPhone right near you. And you only need to purchase the GPS version, you don't need the cellular one. This is just one awesome purchase I'm glad I now have.

    HUGE Improvement Over Original Apple Watch

    I bought the original watch in 2015. It was a disappointment- slow processor, screen not bright enough, inefficient software and completely dependent on the iPhone. New watch addressed all my concerns and I am completely satisfied with the purchase of this new product.

    I was on the fence about the Apple Watch after reading about it. It sounded nice, but overpriced. Well, I was wrong; I LOVE the Apple Watch! Jonny Ive strikes again — the design of this product is simply amazing! So much thought went into not just the design of the physical product (the included band is the most comfortable watch band I’ve ever owned), but the software and user interface design. It is a pure joy to use. I can now answer my own question - “Why would anyone pay $100 more for Apple’s watch?” If you have an old iPod and your 3rd iPhone but never bought a Zune, you’ll understand.

    I asked the associate in this area how he felt about it. He said honestly and I don’t like to say this, but it’s my life. He said it made everything easier and more convenient and he’s pretty busy in life. I took that as a very honest personal review, so I purchased it. After using it for quite some time, I agree with him. It has been very effective made life simpler. If anything, it detaches me from my phone more which is quite comforting. The sales associate I spoke to was very honest and I appreciate him being genuine. Thank you.

    I could have gotten the series 4 but why spend more than I should if the series 3 is very similar. Overall great watch. It has everything you need on a watch. The glass screen can be easily scratched. I had mines a few weeks and it already has a small scratch. But that doesn't stop it from working and it is still usable.

    I am a watch guy. I have many watches: Omega, Hamilton, Citizen Bulova, and Seiko. I was leery about getting an Apple Watch because I am such a watch guy. I am an iPhone user but, I initially purchased a Samsung Gear S3 because it looked like a regular watch. Their was little compatibility between the Gear S3 and the iPhone. I returned it to best buy and thought more about the Apple Watch. I finally went ahead and pulled the trigger. It was initially going to be just a weekday/work watch. I have worn it everyday since! I should have bought one years ago when they first came out.

    I've been looking at Apple Watches for a year and finally decided to go for the Series 3 and I'm very satisfied with the performance of the watch. Notifications are easy to read, texting is better that I anticipated, calls come through clear and set up is seamless.

    I had been fighting it for years but finally got a watch for me and my wife before Orlando vacation. No complaints and the waterproof feature is great. Will probably never use it to the fullest of its capabilities but I like the battery life 2 days or more brand new.

    I have been putting off buying a smartwatch for a long time and boy was I wrong. I love being able to see notifications from my wrist without even having to take my phone out of my pocket. I would say the biggest benefit of having an Apple Watch is when I'm working. It makes receiving messages, phone calls, checking the weather, and so many more things a whole lot easier! All of the health and fitness features are also super handy.
