    I had an Apple Watch 2 that I had purchased a few years ago and the face had come off of it after a few years. I had grown quite accustomed to having an Apple Watch, so I saw this Apple 3 was on sale for a cheaper price than my Apple 2. It is an extension of myself that you don't realize how important until you no longer wear it. It's manufactured much better and the battery is worlds apart from the Apple 2.

    The series 3 Apple watch performs really well in all conditions. Knowing real well that it is not a series 4 or 5, to me it was money well saved on purchasing the series 3. Price was great battery life is great, I went three almost 4 days before I thought I should put it on for a charge. So if you do not need the extra bells and whistles, that to me are not worth the price for, then pick up a series 3.

    Mom loves her new watch

    I got this for my Mom for Christmas. She LOVES it. The 42mm was the right call. I was worried it might be too big on her wrist, but it is fine. And she appreciates the bigger screen. The screen is very bright and easily readable. And I was surprised how good the battery life is. I had the 1st generation Apple Watch and it lasted about 12-14 hours. This one easily lasts a full day. You still need to charge it every day, but no fear of a dead watch late in the evening.

    Can’t recommend Apple watches enough. It’s great for tracking exercise, great if you can’t use your phone at work, and great at finding your phone when you put it down somewhere. The only real reason to pay the extra to get the phoneless featute is if you want to leave your phone at home and just have your watch (like for running) or if you frequently leave your phone at home. Otherwise, you won’t use it enough to pay the monthly service fee.

    This is my second Apple Watch. I bought the original series first. The battery would die by bedtime. Just long enough to function. This series 3 lasts forever. I recently went on a three day trip and forgot to pack my charger. The battery lasted 2.5 days before I had to go to low power mode. The only thing I don’t like is with the series 3 is the charger cord Apple now includes. My Series 1 came with a 6ft cord. This series three came with a 3ft cord

    I’ve been wondering

    I’ve been curious about smart watches for awhile now but couldn’t justify the cost of the one I wanted, the pinnacle Apple Watch. Last year I decided to try a Pebble smart watch. The company had gone out of business and their watches were less expensive. I figured if I liked it, I could ask for the Apple for Christmas this year. Here I am, got my series 3 for Christmas. I absolutely love this thing. The display is beautiful. I now wear my watch all day, every day, everywhere. It has never “disconnected” from my phone until I left the phone inside and went for a walk. I never miss a call, text or important notification, even from Facebook. I love having the outdoor weather available at a glance before heading out the door. Thanks to MyGMC app I can crank my car with my watch. I’m retired and lazy, my watch nudges me to get off the sofa every hour. If I’m vacuuming and can’t hear the phone ring, the watch allows me to hear & answer anywhere in the house. All the while my phone is safely on my end table, not in danger of falling in the toilet or out of my pocket. It has notified me several times of a heartbeat at 39bpm & 118 bpm. Seems those might not be in normal limits. Oh yes Siri is on my wrist to answer questions. What else do you want? This watch is a thing of beauty and a joy for as long as it lasts! Get one!

    I wanted to track my fitness and compared Apple Watch to Fitbit products, went with the Apple Watch series 3 and am glad I did. Keeping track of my physical fitness is fun to do with this watch. It’s also a very handy tool to keep up with texts without having to use my phone all the time. Siri can get a little intrusive sometimes when I inadvertently talk in the direction of my watch, but it’s easy enough to shut Siri off.

    Battery life is good-one charge will last at least 2 days before the next charge. Good quality images. I hate to admit this but it helped me find my I Phone in my boss's truck by ringing on the watch... let me know it was somewhere in his truck and not in the restaurant!! It has a daily exercise routine and keeps track of your "steps" per day and summarizes the end of the week.. Overall, very happy with it!

    Apple watch is the perfect accessory for my active life. I had a fitbit, but wanted smarter fitness tracking, gps tracking, and more info. I utilize the Apple Watch while hiking, climbing mountains, rock climbing, swimming, and it handles it all like a champ! I love seeing elevation information on hikes, fast heart rate tracking, and all in a sleek package! It is a watch, with a glass face. Buy the Apple Care!!
