I purchased the watch with the intention for GPS and cellular option so I can have while I run. I was bit skeptical in comparing with garmin but I’m glad I had a friend who suggested the apple 3 Watch. I returned my garmin and purchased this one. Picture quality on watch is amazing and no issues with using cellular option.

I owned a previous Apple Watch and loved it. I purchased the new one and love it. It performs better than my previous watch and I love the ability to leave my phone behind and still have the ability to send and receive texts and phone calls.

I purchased the watch as a gift for my sister. After she used it for a while, she highly recommended me to get one and I did. I am surprised by how useful the Apple Watch is. I use it mainly in the gym to avoid having to carry my cell phone (for music and having my routine). I also constantly use it to answer messages and make/receive calls. People might think that they do not need the Apple Watch, but once you have it you realize how convenient it is. Another recommendation would be that if you are already making the decision to purchase the watch, you might as well buy it with cellular.

I purchased an open box excellent condition watch. It arrived as described. Overall I am pleased with the watch. There isn't an instructional manual in the packaging. I'm just figuring it out as I go. I haven't hooked up my cellular service yet, so I can't attest to that. The battery life is close to two days. I have notifications to a minimum in an effort to preserve the battery. I wish it took a normal apple charger, so I could charge on the go. I was used ot my fitbit lasting a week. I don't use many apps. Most of the apps I use aren't on the watch app store. I haven't submerged it in water, even though it is waterproof. I still take it off before showering or swimming. I rarely get text notifications in real time. I've tried every setting. Not sure what the issue is. They show up in my messages, I just don't get notified on my watch when one comes in. I'm fairly new to apple products, so it's going to take some getting used to. I mainly purchased this for the cellular feature in case I leave my phone at home. I'm hooking that up next week.

I wanted this for a long time but I rarely spend money on myself. I finally broke down and bought it when the price came down a bit. I cannot use the cellular as my carrier doesn't support it. I wish I had bought it sooner though. It's definitely been beneficial to have this. It's a bit big for my wrist, but I'm sure I'll get used to it, and I had to buy a new band because the one that came with it was not breathable.

I bought this phone to replace my Apple Watch series 2. I've been very happy with the upgrade. The most helpful new feature for me is the ability to listen to Apple Music on the watch, which allows me to have access to my music library even when my phone is not connected with my watch. The screen is also brighter and moving through screen seems faster.

The Apple Watch Series 3 is amazing. I had a little hiccup when the new update released but Apple fixed the problem and I absolutely love it. All the features are easy to use and learn, I love the customization that’s available, the ability to change, pause, play, and higher/lower volume for music, the hands free phone calls make life easier, and the exercise features that keep track of movement. Exactly what I was looking for.

I’ve had this watch for about a month and it is so convenient. I leave my iPhone 8 plus at home most days and I can easily access everything I need from my watch.

My son has only had the watch for a week. However, he seems to like it. It has many nice and cool features. It is a little difficult to understand some things. I recommend watching Youtube to learn how to use it. Also, I purchased a screen protector and a "bumper". One drop, bump or scratch and $400 would be down the drain. Works well with his iphone. (It NumberShares.) Slightly overpriced, but I might feel differently later on.

Bought this as a gift for my mother and Apple knocked it out of the ballpark on this one.
Sure there is a Gen 4 but for what she needs this ticks all the boxes.
Cellular to make calls and receive texts sans phone, ability to listen to Apple Music away from the phone and most importantly it simply works so well.
Only regret is not getting her the larger size.

This watch has a lot of functions, probably won't use them all. But for fitness, I like it. It tracks all activities, from hiking, running, cycling, to elliptical, stair steppers and more. I have the cellular version, nice. Pairs with my AirPods for streaming music. I should of got it sooner but I thought the price was too high, mistake.

My daughter loves this watch. Very fun but expensive. I wish I knew that it needed its own phone WiFi and had to be added to our phone plan.

We use our Apple Watches for fitness and sleep tracking as well as keeping track of notifications. We both upgraded from 1st Gen to Series 3. She has the 38mm Cellular while I have the 42mm GPS. Significant improvements seen in brightness, responsiveness, battery life and call quality. We're very happy with our upgrades.
