    I am so glad that I did some research and realized that the series 5 had more to offer than previous ones. I love the thinner watch as my wife has the older version and has scratch it due to it being bulkier. Love the all black version.

    Performs well, 2 day battery charge, huge manual

    Pro: Bright display (always on if you like), very adaptable & durable (I wear on inside of wrist), seductive in the integration of Watch "apps" and their iPhone cousins; it just works. Calling by Watch, exercise/workout displays, GPS tracking excellent. iPhone Activity app retrieves a lot of Watch data each day. Looking forward to Sleep app in iOS 14. Con: Even with "always-on display" option off, battery needs charging every 36-48 hours (vs. my similar Garmin sports watch at every 4-5 days). GPS usage drains battery quickly (as it does for all trackers). Online Users Manual is 350+ pages, but you can get by after reading a dozen or so. Finding the right 30-60 minutes to re-charge if you wear it 24/7 is an issue -- shower often. Look for extensive review somewhere (dcrainmaker.com) if you're picky.

    The watch is relatively easy to use and pair with my iPhone. The two work well together. Sometimes the watch display changes unexpectedly, but that is not a major problem. It sometimes changes to a face I like better than the previous one.

    So far, I really enjoy this watch, it is packed with features, some I haven’t explored yet. It’s very comfortable and the battery lasts about 30 hours or so. I have a protective case on the way, not because of any fragility, just to protect it.

    I upgraded from an original stainless steel series 0 44 mm watch and am extremely happy with how well this works. Part of that is the is updated, and other parts are the upgrades they made. The watch is a very important piece of tech for my daily life.

    Have had the Apple Watch since 2nd gen was out. When I broke my series 3 I felt naked without it. The 5 doesn’t disappoint with new features and sharp display. Works as expected, I didn’t see the need to pay more for different case material.

    I love being able to track my fitness goals with the watch. It’s also super helpful when you’re taking pictures and you can set you phone up and use the watch to see the frame and click to get the photo. It’s super cute and convenient.

    I was gifted the original Apple Watch when it first came out. I did not think I would like that watch as much as I did. It is still working today but felt it was time for a new watch. I decided to get the new watch and I like all the new features.

    Life is so much easy with the combo of Mobile, Air Pods & Watch. Its so easy to do multitasking. I don’t have to take out my mobile from pocket every time, I can see the call with stopping what I am doing & answer or reject. Thanks

    More Than a Watch.. For Less!

    I owned the first-gen Apple Watch and was mesmerized by the technology at first, but quickly sold it after only a short time of use. Then I purchased the Series 5 as the technology seemed to advance in the right direction and the 44mm size became available. So far, it's been several months since I've owned it, and I haven't taken it off (except to charge, of course). This watch is awesome. It tracks workouts to a tee, tracks my sleep schedule (using 3rd party apps), has easy messaging capabilities and other communicable functions that keeps me from pulling my phone out of my pocket to respond. It's convenience for quick notifications, weather, maps, heart rate, workouts, etc. makes this watch worth the purchase. Hasn't slowed down and is always on my wrist!

    I upgraded from the Series 3 and I’m glad I did. I love the Always On Mode because it feels more like a watch. Plus, I don’t have to turn on the screen to look at the time every time. I like the bigger screen size as well compared to the series 3.

    I am lucky to have a tech savvy teen, so he required none of my help to set up and use his watch. He enjoys the mini apps. He absolutely loves all the features such as making phone calls easily and finding his phone. Great product!

    I really enjoy the Apple Watch. For a long time, I didn’t feel like I needed one. I really like the convenience of checking texts and email on the watch instead of having to pull my phone out of my pocket every time a notification goes off.

    Having sold my series 4 a while back, Im glad I caved and upgraded to the series 5. As a stay at home mama, having a phone on me isn't ideal. So I wear this watch constantly! Battery does last almost 2 days somewhat decent in my eyes.

    The pros: -You can control media on your phone with your watch. I.e Pause, play, reverse, and volume control on things like Netflix, music, and podcasts. -Stylish watch that looks good with everything. -Easy to use features. -Walkie talkie feature is fun to use but it’s mainly a novelty. The Cons: -Charging magnet is flimsy and can get annoying to place correctly. -Accidental presses on bezel if you bend your wrist up. -Very expensive compared to competitors with similar technologies.

    Had a series 1 and finally upgraded to the 5. The change in processor speed is unbelievable. Much better battery life. My series 1 was getting to the point where it would not even hold charge for 24 hrs. Happy to have upgraded.

    Great gift, my brother was very happy to receive it. Watch is a lot fun to play with and he’s learning new things every week about it. Loves that the watch face is always on rather than rise to wake. Great feature!

    I bought the watch to track my Medicals on a daily, monthly basis in between my Doctor visits and it doesn’t disappoint ! Unfortunately, I am ill and this tech helps my doctors to see my health on a daily and in between visits.
