    A little pricey but such a premium feel and look. Constant reminders for things such as physical activities to breathing schedules. Solid buy, would strongly recommend.

    Most people have no need for this very expensive piece of technology. So if you’re looking for something that’s at more modest price point then skip over this. Now that’s out the way, it’s a great piece of tech. It’s fluid which using Siri and sending commands to the phone. It helps me a lot with tracking my fitness. Mostly with my swimming and jogging. It’s simple and easy to use. Great for sending quick texts back or if you don’t want to pick up your phone or if you can get to your phone. It really changed the way I interact with my phone period. Highly recommend.

    Superb smart watch

    I wish I could give a good comparison between this smart watch and others out there, but I can say that this thing is wonderful. I love wearing a watch and have been wanting an AW for a long time. After the updated styling and new screen, I had to get it. I am not a power user so I can't comment on all the crazy functionality and cool apps and what the apps do. The things AW does well that I love are the simple things: text messaging, heart rate and ECG, and listening to voice calls and music through the built in speaker. And even though the watch faces are limited, I really like the information available on some of the new faces for the series 4. Lastly, the battery on this thing is insane. I have watched reviews on the series 4 and the battery is described as lasting a day. They must be using it a ton, because I always have over 50% battery easily at the end of the day, usually 60-70%. About my only gripe is that the glass screen scratched super easily for me. I barely brushed against a laminate counter and have an ugly scratch along the top edge of the screen. I was depressed for most of that day. Oh, and this thing is really expensive. Thank you BestBuy 0% financing.

    Excellent Smart Watch for Apple Fans

    This watch gives me the ability to track my fitness and health in a convenient device. The integration with the health application on my I phone is excellent. As I senior citizen I appreciate the fall detection feature as well as the ability to do a ECG. I will show my doctor the ECG readings on my next visit. It motivates me to get up and move around as well as complete my rings. When I receive a text or call I can just look at my watch without pulling out my phone. Wish it wasn’t so expensive.

    I was a Galaxy guy for the last 3 years, but I am happy that I made the switch to Apple. I went with the iPhone Xs Max and haven't been disappointed. The speed of the device is incredible along with the display. Been a little bit of a struggle getting used to functionality, but persistence pays off. Related to the watch specifically, it is a fun time. It is very useful if you are active at all. If your phone is on you, you can use it to take a phone call to not interrupt the music coming thru your actual phone. It is water resistant, not water proof. It will easily wick sweat away. The clock interfaces are beautiful and the Series 4 watch does not stutter at all. Yes, $400 plus tax is a lot of money for a watch, I get that. You have to look at what you are into as a consumer and I love tech. It enhances your apple experience quite a bit, I honestly am already looking forward to the Series 5.

    It’s a great watch. Overpriced like all Apple stuff, but it’s cool. I would get into a relationship with this watch and then about 2 years later dump her for an upgraded model. Nut bust.

    It was what she wanted. Easy set up and she was there. Kind of pricy, but it is what she wanted. Easy to learn how to operate as well. Looks good on her wrist.

    This is the second Apple Watch I've owned and it's a seamless experience to pair with my iPhone and my Macbook. I love the functionality and this updated model is fast - no latency like I experienced with the older version. My chief complaints are 1) the battery life - it's improved but a little more juice would be nice some day. 2) the price - it's expensive for what it is/does. I traded in some older devices to bring the price down. $100 less would be the sweet spot for me in terms of value and function.

    I’m coming from an original Apple Watch to this to that end this upgrade is amazing and this watch has so many things that the original did not. But to say the current pricing is excessive would be an understatement. Worth it if you have the money to kill and would make a great gift.

    This is what a smart watch is supposed to be. Very good and convenient for active people but pretty redundant for anyone who can conveniently pull out their iPhone to use. The steep price makes you question it’s worth sometimes. GPS only should be $250-$300

    Smart watches are usual but this ape watch has made my things more easier than ever. Access calls, messages and track your workout at the gym. As expected Apple brand is expensive unlike that I would recommend the watch for everyday purpose.

    Love my Series 4 Apple Watch

    I hesitated purchasing the new Apple Watch Series 4, but I’m glad I made the purchase. Maybe because I’m moving from the first generation Apple Watch, but everything is super fast. Also music connects quickly to my iPhone. I just wish the Watch was a little more affordable. I probably won’t purchase another Apple Watch for at least 3years. My next Watch will be the series 7 most likely.

    Great If You Have The Money To Blow

    So, I've been wanting an apple watch for a long time, and when I finally decided to purchase one, I figure, go big or go home, right? So. I bought the newest, biggest one and it was expensive (for me). Now that I've had the thing for like a month, I like it, but I don't use it as much as I thought I would. I wear it when I remember to and its deff handly at the gym if you're into tracking your stuff... but other than that it's kinda just for show. I like the feel of it and how big the screen is. I like that I can text while I'm at work.. But It was just so expensive for basically a convenient toy. If I went back in time, I wouldn't of bought it for the price I paid. But, It's a cool gadget if you have the money to blow.

    Definitely enjoy this watch. Can swim with it and take calls and text. I like that you can change watch face and different bands. Can wear working out or at office. A bit pricey but it’s an Apple product so expect a higher price point but know you’re getting top watch.

    Let’s face it: the price point is not worth it for this watch. It does what it says it will do but to buy it is a mortgage payment. Average Joe can afford it but he probably shouldn’t. The most impressive bit about the watch is the super comfortable band. Battery life is pretty crappy especially if you use all the cool features like heart monitor and Siri. All in all i regret buying it and should’ve just got a nice Fitbit

    Finally Upgraded From My Series 1

    I upgraded to the series 4 Apple Watch right as the series 5 was coming out. I like that it was a little bigger than my original Series 1 watch, and was also a little quicker performing tasks. I also enjoyed the iOS watch update, which had some nifty new features that came along with the update. It’s still a little pricey compared to other smart watches, but I’m Team Apple all the way! Once again if you wait for a sale at Best Buy, this becomes a much better purchase.
