    I owned a Series 4 prior to this and this is everything I enjoyed about the 4 plus it has the always on display possibility. The only thing to watch for is the display does drain the battery more so I don't get the same battery life on this as I did with the Series 4.

    Purchased for my dad’s birthday and he loves it. As someone frequently on his phone for business needs, the watch creates a new layer of convenience for him. The particular health features of the Series 5 make it a product that give me a little peace of mind as well.

    I really am enjoy this smart watch! It helps keep track of my movement throughout the day, heartbeat, calories burn, and gives alerts to exercise! (Or to start least stand up lol). Also, I am impress with the battery life of the watch. I can go a full day without having to charge it.

    Bought this for my wife as a Christmas gift and she loves the watch. Gives her all the Apps she needs from monitoring her health to quick access for both text messages and phone calls. Went with the bigger screen as it is much easier to read. I would recommend this product.

    I love my new watch. I’ve had many Samsung watches previously but none of them integrated with my phone as well as my Apple Watch Series 5. It’s comfortable, light weight, and the battery lasts a very long time. It does everything I need and more.

    This watch integrates seamlessly with the iPhone and set up is easy. It has nice features and available apps plus some new apps in Series 5. I like the new compass app and the decibel app. It has built in safety features like fall detection. I'm pleased with this watch.

    Really like this watch. can answer calls, read texts, see appointments. Tracks your heart rate and can do basic ECG. Encourages you to move often and to meet daily fitness goals. The only drawback encountered so far, is the battery life. It must be charged daily.

    This is an upgrade from my series 2 and it’s fantastic ! Works great and I have small wrist for being a women but this size makes everything easy to see and I really like it. I was thinking about the small screen in this series but I don’t think I will go back !

    I got this as a gift from my parents, I enjoy it because it can alert me about incoming calls, texts, and track my steps/heart rate throughout the day. It mostly helps me with staying accountable for working out, so I track my workouts & set some goals.

    First apple watch and love it. Connects to iPhone super easy. Watch has great features including the activity tracking and heart monitoring. I can get a full day on a single charge. I was also surprised on how good the call quality is when just using the watch.

    This is my second Apple Watch. The first was a Apple Watch 2 and it lasted about a month past the factory warranty and then the screen went black. Had sound, had haptics but no screen. So I’m trying the new 5. So far it has been great and I’m wondering how I did without it.

    I’m an Apple iPhone X owner and this is my first Apple Watch. I’m really impressed by the quality and battery life of this watch after a few minor setting adjustments. My wife has one also and we enjoy the walkie talkie feature. This is a must own for any iPhone user!

    I really enjoy being able to talk and text on the go, the real-time activity tracker motivates me to meet my fitness goals, and I love that I can control Spotify from it. Overall, I’ve been very happy and I’m looking forward to continuing to use my new toy!

    Worth the switch

    I decided on the new Apple Watch after the Fitbit my husband bought me less than a year and a half ago started to glitch and never turn on again. I’ve only had it for a month now but I really like the features it has. Even though the always on feature may be nice I turned it off so that my battery would last longer. My battery only lasts a couple days with regular use (text message preview, ring closures, outdoor exercising, breathing app) which is disappointing compared to the Fitbit. Face quality is definitely better than the Fitbit, the band is not my favorite for the price. Purchased a case for the face to protect from screen cracking and the hits it’s most likely going to take. My biggest disappointment is the not tracking sleep without having to download an additional app. Still getting use to the switch but I think I will like it once I get use to it and the different features.

    I bought my first Apple Watch when the Series 2 came out and hung on to that version until finally deciding it was time to upgrade to the latest version. My new Series 5 arrived in the mail yesterday, and Apple released the Series 6 today. My bad, I should have known better and just wasn’t thinking to wait for the next series. But, the Series 5 is so much faster than the Series 2. The screen is easier to read, apps are snappy and not sluggish as they were on the Series 2. I truly enjoy the new Series 5 even though I feel a bit foolish for not waiting for the Series 6. Oh well, I may buy the Series 6 and give this one to my wife... :) I’m sure the prices for the Series 5 will come down now that the Series 6 is out there. So, if you are in the market for an Apple Watch, the Series 5 is a great one to start with, especially if retailers and Apple lower the price.

    I have a series 1 AppleWatch and this series 5 is by far superior in performance and features. Also needed to upgrade my watch in order to get the latest software updates. Fits well and the always on deride is great, not to mention you can turn off in a theater or such.

    I previously had Series 2 and replaced it with Series 5. What a big difference! I love the bigger screen size and all the options available now. I particularly like the weather feature. We need to stay informed. Overall, I am pleased with the upgrade!!

    First time Apple Watch owner, great product to track daily exercise, love wearing it for a walk and listen to podcast without the phone. Apple Pay is super handy for the age of COVID, no more put in the passcode before you pay at the store

    Just bought the Apple I watch five, upgraded from the three. Really impressed with the 44 mm size definitely a big upgrade from the original 42 that I had. I look forward to continue using it for my runs and tracking my progress as well as using it for my phone.

    I had the last generation of watches and it performed perfectly. I upgraded to the latest Apple Watch and couldn’t be happier. All of the features you would expect from Apple and they made the latest watch even better. I would definitely recommend this watch to everyone.
