    My wife and i replaced our original Apple watches with the Apple Watch 3 with LTE this year. While we were satisfied with our gen 0 watches, the model 3 provides quite an upgrade. 1) It's waterproof. Since i use my watch as a fitness tracker, i don't have to worry about getting it wet when running, cycling or kayaking. Same with household chores 2) Apps load and run much faster than the Gen 0 3) LTE means i don't need to carry my phone with me on runs or bike rides. GPS tracking works, i can stream music and don't have to worry about missing important phone calls. 4) Improved battery life. That said, a 1 hour run using Runkeeper to record my run and the music app to stream a playlist can consume around 20% of the battery life.

    This watch extends the utility of the iPhone world. Wish it would last a few days per charge instead on one day. Still small and relatively light and so far waterproof.

    Freedom of text and phone without carry a phone. The 38 mm is so light and I can wear it all without noticing about it. Battery is just barely enough for a day.

    Love that I don't have to have my phone with me to receive calls or texts. Only problem is battery life is short. Was told that the battery would last at least 2 1/2 days. I have to charge it every day or it dies.

    Apple does not disappoint. I love this model because if I go for a run i cal literally leave evwrything behing and just have my waych with me! Battery lasts just about a day which I was hoping would get a bit better with this new model but then againmost smart watches do.

    I absolutely love the watch and the band that came with it (I was skeptical about the band). The watch performs above my expectations — I just dislike that I have to take it off to charge it.

    Bought on sale. It performs well, but needs to be charged every other day. Charge requirements vary by use. Lowest use age I hsva seen is 20 percent used in a day.

    It’s a great convenience to not have go carry the phone around for full use. Would love a longer battery life, but overall it is as expected.

    I upgraded from the original iWatch and I'm glad I did. My original battery couldn't handle how much I use the watch.

    Excellent upgrade from first gen Apple Watch!

    Posted .

    I was an early adopter of the Apple Watch and decided it was time to upgrade. Although I loved my first gen Apple Watch, the battery life wasn’t that great to start with. And after every subsequent OS update, the battery worsened. After I updated to OS 4, it would be dead within 6 hours with minimal use. In comparison, the battery life on the series 3 has been excellent. I put my watch on 6 am and by 9 pm it is between 55-60%. And that is switching between WiFi and LTE throughout the day, sending text, making receiving calls, controlling music, and workouts. I found I utilize my watch more because I know my watch will last the entire day. The new sport loop band is much better than the original sport band. It is breathable and forms to the wrist comfortably. The loops on the band are soft and feel almost squishy. My one concern about the band is that the Seashell sport loop is lighter colored and could get dirty quickly. As of now, I haven’t heard if Apple has said whether or not the sport loop bands are washable (handwash). As far as setup goes, it was a breeze. I’m with AT&T and pairing and setup of cellular was super easy and worked immediately. The Watch itself is thicker than first gen, but it’s negligible and you won’t even notice once it’s on your wrist. All in all, I’m am very pleased with my purchase and and happy with its performance. I highly recommend. Especially if you were an early adopter of the first gen. Series 3 is a very nice upgrade.

    Ok. So it is a beautiful watch. Functional, with lots of bells and whistles. But the battery life on this thing is absolutely ridiculous. If you are going to Dole out all this dough for tech, Apple has got to make it worthwhile. They failed miserably on the battery. I also have a Garmin gps watch. I can wear it and use it for runs for a week and it still has power. Apple watch is an absolute failure of a watch. The stars I gave are because the technology is cool and it is visually stunning. Save a buck...buy a Garmin.
