I love my watch! I can change the bands I change the background, put different screen cover

Probably the best all around smartwatch you can buy. Price point may be a bit high, but depending on your expected use you can get your moneys worth. The features that led me to buy: GPS built in, typical seamless ios connectivity, fitness tracking (step counter may be slightly off and activity app might inadvertently identify standing and exercise movements occasionally), tons of app options for additional fitness tracking / productivity, extremely accurate heart rate and ECG tracker, and waterproof capability (been having a tough time getting accustomed to submerging the watch mentally but zero problems when I do, also a convenient waterproof function built in). The only negatives so far are price point and battery life which you can easily get over a day on with high level of use, and two full days with minimal use and always on display turned off.

I had heard about a bicyclist who had fallen and his Apple Watch contacted emergency services and texted his emergency contact. I got my watch on a Wednesday and the Saturday after I fell really hard on my back deck. The watch detected the fall and asked me if I needed emergency services. If I hadn’t tapped my phone within a minute they would have contacted the paramedics with my gps location. My grandchildren were at home with me and called 911. If the hadn’t been there I would have still gotten help. I have told several people about this and they want to get watches for themselves or a parent. I hoped I don’t need this again but I will always have an Apple Watch. I also like the look and the functionality of the watch.

I am loving my Apple Watch series 5, I honestly do not know how I functioned before having it! I set up my exercise program and use daily to monitor my jogging and walking! I love that I can monitor my calories burned and heart rate. Having this program on my new Apple Watch, on my wrist has helped me to complete my daily goals runs/walks! I am now jogging 6 miles plus 7 days a week, where before purchasing my watch, perhaps I was jogging 2 miles a day! I’m gaining a big health benefit with my Apple Watch, while enjoying its beauty and so much more functionality! Love this Watch and highly recommend!

Nice watch.....was under the impression that the battery would give me 5 days without a charge. 5 days standby maybe. It needs to go on the charger every night. Sometimes I can get 2 days out of it. I like the size for my wrist. I did get a clear case protector...which I'm glad I have because the watch is easy to knock by accident. It's also waterproof but I haven't tried that feature yet. It has artistic watch faces to apply. It took me a while to find the watch face that works best for me. It takes some fiddling to get use to but eventually you settle into it.

I wasn't sure what to expect color-wise when ordering this online, but the picture is very true to the color! It's a super cute light pink color and I love it! The band is comfortable and the watch was extremely easy to set up and sync with my phone. It only took me a few hours to figure out how to use all of the features and I love wearing it all day to keep track of my fitness goals. I also love that it gives me little reminders to breathe, stand, walk, etc. It's my little health and wellness companion :) haha

I have never been a big Apple fan, I don't want to be one of those that owns everything Apple. I went back to an iphone so my wife and kids can share things easier with me. Since I've been bored during this pandemic I thought I'd just try out the Apple Watch and I can always just give it away if I didn't like it. Well I now actually wear it everyday, mainly using it to track fitness which it's very good at, and being able to confirm an AWS sign on using the watch instead of my phone has been real helpful. For me, fitness tracking is its strength, I would imagine a Garmin would be better but this was a lot cheaper on sale, and it provides a number of metrics that are helpful. At the end of the day I usually am down to about 30% battery, starting off at 90%, so I've been surprised that battery hasn't been an issue given everything I've read. And I do play with it often keeping an eye on my rings. I can't compare to Samsung's watch as I've never tried their's, but I would recommend the Apple Watch especially on sale.

I was a fitbit user previously. They would get to the point where they would no longer work, so I slacked off on using them. I got interested in the Apple Watch when I was attending a workshop at the Apple Store with my daughter's Girl Scout troop. I saw the fitness tracking and was sold. I got it for Christmas from Best Buy. I've lost and kept off 15 pounds so far. I also never miss calls or texts anymore, and I get weather updates in real time. Just don't drop it on the bathroom tile!

I love using this watch for workouts. Sure, it's great for notifications so you don't have to pull your phone out of your pocket, but the activity features is really what's amazing (and of course the design). I've used this for running, walking, swimming, biking, and pilates. While its super great to track workouts, it also makes me WANT to close my rings and stay active every day. I kind of hate that its starting to dictate my workout schedule, but its probably for the best ;)

I go hiking a lot so a compass is useful. I was disappointed to discover the always on display doesn’t apply to apps - just to a few of the Apple built in apps. But this is not a showstopper. Generally speaking - other than the compass and always on display - its identical to my series 4 watch. However with one big exception - battery life. I was always impressed by the series 4’s battery life. At the end of an average day I’d usually have around 50% battery left. With the series 5 watch - same routine - I’m usually on 30% by the end of the day. In fact in a bid to try and improve battery life I’ve disabled as much as possible even to achieve the 30 to 35 percent charge. Battery life was never the Apple Watch’s strong point - so I’m quite disappointed its now even worse! As the battery ages, as all batteries do, the capacity will drop. However on the plus side the Apple Watch is overall an excellent device. Its the only wrist based optical heart rate monitor that actually works for me - and I’ve tried probably a dozen watches prior to this and none could accurately measure my heart rate. The Garmin Fenix 5 was the best - but that was still so bad I disabled the optical HRM.

I bought this for my wife as a birthday gift. She love it, the 40 mm is perfect for her because of the smaller frame. I would recommend getting the 40 mm for lady since they have smaller wrist. Great watch for the price. Helps her track her everyday health and also helps her find her phone whenever she lose it. The band are also interchangeable so having the ability switch from band to band makes the watch much more versatile. Overall great watch and awesome as a gift

I was heartbroken after losing my apple watch 4 on a camping trip. It had been a gift from my husband for Christmas and I used it at work every day. I was lost without it. Imagine my disappointment to find out that apple 4 was no longer available! My dear sweet husband felt sorry for me and gave me the money to replace it with the new apple 5 which was a lower price than the apple 4 . I couldn't be happier!

So I’ve had a series 1 and have worn it pretty much everyday for 2 years and it finally stopped charging about 20 days before the series 5 came out. I waited patiently and bought it immediately when released. This Apple Watch is incredible. I’m obsessed with it. I love all the new features and now I can’t go a day without it. If you are wondering if you need this, you do. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

If you have never had an apple watch, they are great. You will be impressed and love it. If you have had an apple watch before, you will be left disappointed by the new "Always On" display as it will burn through your battery life and may not last through the day. "Always On" When on, my battery will last up to 15 hours. When off, my battery will last up to 48 hours. So I leave it off negating the biggest feature for the watch. Doing any sort of activity with the always on display on, will guarantee a dead battery by the end of the day. The rest of the watch is great (as expected). The fitness tracking is way better than any series before it. The battery life when the always on display feature is off is amazing. If you have an iPhone, get an Apple Watch. You are missing out.

This watch has changed my fitness levels in such a positive way. I am highly motivated to close each ring every day and the monthly challenges encourage me to keep increasing my fitness levels. I wish it could be more customizable for your specific health needs like during a pregnancy or recovering from illness or a medical procedure. It expects you to always do better than your current or previous accomplishments, so when you need to decrease your exercise time or intensity, there is no way to really adjust the watch’s goals for you. Overall the non-fitness related tasks that can be performed from the watch are really useful and I find myself relying on them regularly. Previewing emails, ability to check the week’s worth of calendar events and appointments, access to all your saved locations’ weather forecast and so many apps with watch compatibility make for a great experience. The watch integrates itself almost seamlessly into and enhances your Apple experience. I don’t have enough positive things to say about this device and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone regardless of age or interest in fitness.

I bought an Apple Watch for its health and activity monitoring capabilities, and it hasn't let me down. I tested its heart rate measurements against those of other devices and against my own reading from counting, and the readings have been consistently accurate. My only complaint is that when I check my pulse, the watch will give me a number that's far too low for a second, before switching to the actual number, throwing off my daily averages. I'm please with all other functions and apps, ultimately because of the convenience of having them on my wrist. I do wish the battery life were longer. I need to charge my watch once every day-and-a-half or so, despite not using it much.

I preferred the terms and price that Best Buy was offering over going directly to Apple. The staff was helpful and knowledgable. It's easy to sync up with an iPhone and once it's up and running, it's so much fun. Battery life could be better. I usually have to charge it twice a day.

I love this watch, it is a beautiful color and I love how easily and quickly is syncs to my phone and notifies me when I can’t see my phone. I also love that I can use this model while swimming to be able to track those workouts. This is a great product to help me stay on track for my fitness goals.

The best thing for me about the Apple 5 watch is the activity tracking feature, which has motivated me to be more active every day in a way that none of my previous fitness trackers have. There is a lot of encouragement and positive reinforcement. It's nice to see when emails and texts come in, and being able to take a phone call when your phone is not right next to you has been a plus. It's also nice to be able to check the weather. And it tells time too. :) There are a variety of watch faces to choose from, which are functional, if not especially stylish. They are easy to change back and forth, depending on what you want to see at a glance. The watch is completely waterproof. It tracks swimming, as well as a host of other activities. The heart rate feature has been interesting to follow and seems accurate. I got my watch at a discount as part of an AFib study, so it was a very good value for me. I recently got a fabric sports band, which I feel is more comfortable than the original vinyl band.

I purchased this for my husband on our 11th Anniversary and my husband really loved it. We specially loved the heath monitoring APP which include blood pressure, ECG and irregular heart beat. The color I choose was perfect as shown in the picture. I would love to replace my series 3. Awesome buy.
