    When I’m driving and my phone rings, but it is in the bottom of my purse, I tap my wrist and never take my eyes off the road. Or I run out and forget my phone ... no problem! This is a GREAT product!

    I would recommend this to anyone in the market for a smart watch. Coming from only wearing analog watches for years I was skeptical of how “useful” a smart watch would be, being that I have my iphone in my pocket at (almost) all times. It was when the cellular versions of these watches began to come out that I became interested. Because now it has the ability to operate without my phone being present, and that alone made it worth it to me. And now after making the decision to buy this watch and wearing it long enough to get adjusted, it immediately became one of the most useful pieces of technology I own.

    Finally an Apple Watch with Cellular Capabilities

    I really love the cellular capability of the new Apple Watch. It is very nice being able to go to CrossFit without having to either bring my cellphone with me, or miss potentially important calls and/or texts. The cellular component works really well, and I have not noticed a difference in battery life between the Series 3 and the Series 2 versions.

    I bought the Apple Watch to free up time as to not have to reach for my phone every time I received a text or call,check the weather, or look at the time. I also love the heart beat and activity app as a way to promote a healthier life. I personally love the sports band as opposed to the nylon band. I think it looks nicer and the material feels better on my skin compared to the nylon, I recommend you try both as everyone reacts differently to different materials. This watch is much quicker than the series one and I find myself using Siri much more frequently because it’s so easy to interact on your wrist instead of fumbling for your phone. I use a Bluetooth speaker in my work truck and asking Siri to change the playlist or artist is such a breeze with Apple Music. I recommend the Apple Care for 49.00 because although the glass is strong and sturdy, it will undoubtedly be easier to scratch or break than most other Apple devices because it’s in the open at all times. I highly recommend the Apple Watch as a time piece and great extension to the iPhone.

    Glad I waited on purchasing the apple watch for the series 3. It has the main function I wanted in the apple watch. To make phone calls without having my cell nearby. The better chip and Siri are an added plus. Apple, what took you so long?

    Love My Apple Watch--So Much Better Battery Life

    I absolutely love my Apple Watch Series 3! I purchased the First Generation Apple Watch when it first launched. I was tempted to buy the Series 2 for the waterproof feature, but I held out to see what would be further down the line...Boy am I glad that I did! As soon as I saw the Series 3 with Cellular, I was hooked! It's a very similar design to the previous two models, but the actual hardware improvements are impressive. Finally, Siri can speak! And, the speed of the watch's processing power is impressive. There's almost no lag between asking Siri to do something (including talk-to-text) and it appearing on the screen! And it is sure nice to end my day with still 20-30% battery life! Definitely worth the upgrade (Or first time purchase)

    I love it. I am upgrading from the original Apple watch and this watch is so much better and worth every penny. Too many new features to mention all however I love the heart rate monitor that will notify you in emergence, the battery life is awesome, still had 80% battery left after a full day of use from 7 am that day.

    Battery life is good , LTE connection is good. Yes , with just LTE you do not get good battery life but when synced with the phone it is too good. I have an T-mobile connection and did not experience any issues. You can use just the watch with LTE connection for near by shopping or hitting the gym etc etc. Overall its all just for your comfort.

    The series 3 is faster than my series 1 and that makes it better. Screen is noticeably brighter, waterproof, and Siri talks back, but the speed improvement, especially with Siri, is what I really appreciate.

    Didn’t buy it for fashion, personal purchase this for functionality, i was thinking about this and the more expensive apple steel series but at the long run decided on the aluminum due to the fact it’s affordable and there’s always something new next year.

    I love this watch. I waited almost 2 months from the time ordered mine. The cellular use is amazing and the watch works so much faster than my series 1. Lots more features too. It is a great upgrade over the series one and two.

    First off I would like to say it’s made by Apple. Anything made by Apple is top notch. This Apple Watch is a great addition to my AirPods , iPhone X, MacBook Pro, and iPad Pro. Never had a problem with any of them, now to talk about the watch, it was a little tricky to set up the cellular because you need to actually log in to your cell carriers website and add the plan you’re self to be able to use the features, but after I set it up everything was smooth, I recommend enabling the voice commands so when you need to search google maps for something it’s easy af .. just say what you need and it will show you everything you need to know. Same goes with texting and messenger, I just say it and it writes it. Next I LOVE the stock apps , if you’re into the markets it keeps you up to date. I recommend the app “robinhood”. The activity app is awesome!!!! It shows how many steps you took , how far you traveled , you’re heart rate BPM . Elevation gain and more.. so cool. The only small downside is there is no safari or internet browser , you can’t really go on Instagram but I don’t mind . It’s still an awesome watch guys .

    I've owned all three models of the Apple Watch but with the series 3 Apple has hit the sweet spot. The battery is all day usable. The addition of cellular is killer. If yer an iPhone user this is a great addition...

    Does everything I want or need it to do. Plays music, tracks runs, I don’t have to worry about it around water and it looks great for just walking around. The ability to make a cell call and send text messages means I leave my phone at home during long outdoor runs or when heading to the store for a quick trip. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

    This was a gift for my Son for Xmas. He is away in the Air-force. He loves it. He now use this rather than his phone. No more searching everywhere he goes for the phone that he cant ever find.. They didn't have the one he wanted so i had to buy SS strap separate. Not happy about the price for that but this Is a great product and Best buy sales person was a great help with getting me what my son wanted.. No more phone needed..

    Christmas present for my wife...she loves it. The best part..is that you can make a phone call and receive a phone call with your cell phone still at home and you miles away. The speaker is great on the phone...both in you hearing the person calling ....and in the person calling... hearing you! Faster than the original model too.... much!
