    A huge upgrade from the first gen Apple Watch!

    Bottom Line: The Apple Watch Series 4 showcases a series of refinements to the features that made the Apple Watch the leader of the smartwatch category. Pros: sleeker design, larger display, faster and more responsive, improved heart and motion sensors, compatible with existing bands Cons: still an iPhone accessory, price Review: Fans of the Apple Watch won’t he disappointed with the Series 4. Although the changes to the case design seem minor, they have a big impact on the experience. Series 4, compared the previous design, looks and feels less like a “smartwatch” and more just like a “watch.” The bigger screen is fantastic, especially compared to my S0. I love the new watch faces, and the extra screen size helps when typing directly on the screen. For instance, when entering my passcode, I’m less likely to hit the wrong numbers, since the button sizes are closer to those of my fingertips. There are several under-the hood improvements as well. For me, the upgraded processor is huge, since it (re)enables a lot of features that no longer ran well on the S0, including Siri and Music. The heart sensor is also much better at keeping track of your heart rate, which is helpful during activities like bike riding. Although the Series 4 is a nice improvement over previous generations, the Apple Watch is still very much an iPhone accessory. It’s appeal will primarily be those who are upgrading from earlier models and, perhaps, someone who is heavily considering making the jump into wearables that is already invested in Apple’s ecosystem.

    It’s convenient and works in harmony with the iPhone. Battery lasts for a long time at least almost two days. The range works well unless there are a lot of walls. I like how I can change my music from my phone as well. It keeps a nice summary of heart rate and sleep. The sleep app had to be downloaded and it works ok. The speaker to talk to people works great and I have had no problems with them hearing me. Talking through text is also convenient. The only downside is the price, but you definitely get what you pay for. It is also easily damaged so get a protector.

    It had some good things it did. But I thought it was redundant because I had to have my IPhone with me. After paying more than $1000 for my Phone, paying another $500 to have my watch connected to it just didn’t make sense to me. Also it’s a watch, that can easily be broken. So you have to also buy the warranty adding to the price. I thought about buying one connected to Verizon, which costs another $100, but then they want another $10 a month, again adding to the cost. Not sure where they are going with this.

    I upgraded from the Apple Watch series 1 to this series 4 watch. It is better in every category. Battery life is great, processor is fast, everything works like it should. You can actually take a phone call on the watch and the people on the other end can’t tell your taking on your watch. The only downside is the price. $429 is pricey for a watch that gets outdated every few years.

    Wasn't sure I really needed one because of the price of these but couldn't be happier with my purchase. Love the functions of this watch. I can read messages or emails and other phone functions without having to pull my phone out. I like being able to change the watch face and associated functions with the swipe of a finger. Also has a heart rate monitor function which is great when working out.

    I originally upgraded to the AW4 and decided that the price for the series 4 wasn’t worth it. I ended up getting the series 3 at the Black Friday price which made it a no brainer. Awesome features and notifications.

    Amazing Piece of Technology

    Other than the price I paid for this, I absolutely love everything about this piece of technology. I have been putting off buying one since the first Apple watch came out, but couldn't wait any longer. This smart watch allows me to stay connected without having my phone on me all the time. I love not having to track down my phone when I am at home and someone calls. The ability to have a conversation through the watch is awesome. The other features that I love is the health and fitness aspect of the Apple watch. Works great with my active lifestyle.

    Ok so I’ve had my eye on a Apple Watch for sometime. After months of research and thought I purchased the 44mm silver aluminum. I love Apple products. Price is usually a big issue. I don’t agree to have the white band with the purchase however. It should be a choice of band as a stand-alone included in the package. People like choices. Since Apple controls prices give options that include the band that matches the purchase for their discretion. However I still love the watch. Thanks

    Why buy a series 5?

    I bought this after the launch of the series 5. Saved $70 over original price and $100 over newer version. The battery on the 4 will last longer due to not having the dim always on screen. Works perfect for me! Would rate 5 stars but as with all Apple products price keeps it to a 4.

    My sister and I bought this for our 70+ year-old father and he surprisingly loves it until he found out how much it cost! It does almost everything and he has picked it up pretty well and shows it off to all his friends and doctor. But seriously, before smart watches, very few people spent more than $100 or $200 on a watch and now we are spending $500 on watches without batting too many eyelashes. What has happened to us? It is so nice though.

    I LOVE this watch! I researched a while back and compared it to the Versa. Decided because of the hefty price tag, I bought a Versa. I loved the Versa but still found myself researching the Apple Watch 4 series. I bit the bullet, found one returned and got it for a awesome deal at best buy, complete with GPS. I used the sleep app on Versa but found a great app fir apple called Auto Sleep. Best watch out there !

    the device was definitely a huge improvement to my apple watch series 1 when it came to speed. i just cant justify spending that much money on the upgrade when the series 3 is $150 less at the moment. its a very pretty watch, but i'm ok with downgrading to a series 3 just for the extra water resistance minus the perks of the heart rate, watch faces, and bigger looking screen

    The watch may seem expensive, but for all it does and the length of time they last, it really isn’t that bad. I love all the functionality it has in a simple wrist watch (texting, phone calls, meditation, calculator, heart rate, track workouts). I also the all the different faces I can personalize it with, I can even create a face and add my own photo.

    My wife and I got Apple Watches through my job for a fitness program to earn HRA funds. We primarily use it to count our steps, but some of the convenience features of checking messages and using the speaker phone are cool. Otherwise there isn’t much use to have something like this, unless you’re a diehard workout enthusiast that needs to track heart rate and other activity stats. Best feature for me is not having to reach for my phone when I get a text. Not worth $400 though.

    Works as advertised: see the time, texts, emails, take phone calls, track exercise, heart rate, and see how long until sunset. Easy to charge and talks to phone seamlessly. Lots of watch face choices and customization options. Just wish bands were cheaper.
