    I purchased an Apple watch for my wife on her birthday and she absolutely loves it!!! She uses it as an external device for her handheld phone and is also able to access her messages without having to have her computer near by.

    We were able to set this up in just a few minutes and it works great. It's an awesome companion to the iPhone providing text alerts and an easy way to place and receive calls. The heart rate monitor is another great feature.

    You simply cannot buy a better Smart watch Especially if you’re already an Apple user. I can get two days use from the battery if I conserve and have 50% of battery life left at the end of one day under full usage.

    I purchased this for gf as she was a fitbit user but had issues since the new apple update. Got her this and she loves everything about it, the extra features which she felt wasn't necessary is now become her way of life.

    Not only is this a great watch with all the other features you can get with a fitbit--It has a safety 911 emergency feature. We bought this for our Mom who is 87. If she falls it will call emergency services.

    We purchased the Apple Watch Series 5 for our daughter for her 14th birthday. She loves it and does so many things on it. It's great for kids to keep up with technology and the Apple Watch helps her do this.

    The Apple Watch Series 5 is super helpful and shows multiple things like my calendar, the weather, the song and I’m listening to, and much more. Also it’s a great fitness tracker so I would definitely recommend it!

    Screen scratches FAR more easily than older models

    The new sensor design on the watch series 5 is AMAZING! But, we were very disappointed to discover that the watch face is not as quality as previous models. I can compare the series 5 to a series 2 I have in the house that has been worn for years and the series 2 looks SO MUCH better than this one which has been worn in the same work setting for just a month. Sad.

    I had a series 2 that I was desperately trying to replace. Love the slightly bigger screen and the EKG feature. Other than that it’s the same great Apple product we are use to! Also love that I got it for $100 off!

    My daughter said she didn't need the upgrade from Series 2 but I got it anyway and she was thrilled. The added features and the compatibility with her iphone and airpods is worth it. She loves it, what else can you say?

    i had a 1st gen apple watch and didn't really realize that it was getting slow. Then i got this one for christmas and WOW, night and day difference. This one does all operations seemingly instantly. Feels like the future.
