    I upgraded from series 1 Apple Watch. Love the heart check / fall detection. The auto on with raising arm is fantastic. Ability to do memos from watch to phone is also great! I would highly recommend the new series 5

    The other day, I tripped on my basement stairs and my watches asked me if I was okay or if I wanted to notify someone. Also handy when I forgot my wallet and I realized I could pay for groceries with my watch.

    I bought this for my mom who has tiny wrists so the watch looks a bit big on her. I have the larger model and love it. Until i bought the apple watch, i hadn't worn a watch for nearly 25 years. now i wear it daily.

    I bought this as a Christmas gift for my wife and she's so happy with it. I've seen her using it and it look really cool. Now I'm thinking to get one for myself. I almost forgot it comes with 4 months free of apple music.

    Love that the 5 series stays on/can read the time at all times. Fits perfect and compliments my iPhone. Is it worth it if you have a 4? Depends how much value you put into the always on time piece. For me, no regrets!

    I just recently had a phone call on my cell phone but I couldn’t get the phone out of my pocket. I had to accept the call on my watch!! Not kidding! I felt like Dick Tracy! I never want to be without this watch!

    Staff quickly supported my wife as she looked for an apple watch. Unsure of the different models, the salesperson did an outstanding job describing the functions of each. Thanks Best Buy for being the electronics of choice.

    Highly recommend this upgrade. Upgraded from series 3 that was constantly dying before the end of the day. Now I can expect to have at least 50% battery life at the end of the day (even when the face stays lit 24/7!!!!)

    I recently upgraded from a Series 1 that I owned and wore daily for 5 years. The series 5 had a much better battery life and upgraded features without being overly complicated to use. I wish there was a way to put the pedometer feature on the face and sleep tracking. I understand that there are apps available for sleep tracking but one built into the watch would be great. Overall this is a really good watch for having an extension of your phone.

    How about the previous-generation watch about a year going absolutely loved it. This year I bought this watch because of the always on display. It has absolutely no lag and you don't have to move your wrist to see the time.

    Having the apple watch is very useful. It really motivates you to workout and feels rewarding when you do. I can control my music from it, see my heartbeat, meditate, check apps that are compatible with it.

    I got this watch for my wife and she loves the watch. It is a huge upgrade from series 1. In addition to the new features, the new slightly bigger face along with the aluminum case match perfectly with her iPhone.

    This watch is fantastic. I thought Apple watches were too expensive for what they are, and thought they might not be durable. I was wrong, this thing never leaves my wrist unless it’s to charge it. Fantastic.

    I had my series 1 for years before upgrading. I didn’t see a reason to upgrade as it still worked well, but I was wrong. The response tome of this watch is so much better, battery life is better, everything is better!
