    I have included a picture of how excited my dad is to get his Apple Watch. He wears it everyday, which tells me it is user friendly because he hasn’t given up because it’s too much technology! Please enjoy this cute picture, it says everything it needs for the review... he couldn’t take the picture without showing off his new watch.

    The series 5 Apple Watch is what the Apple Watch should have been from the beginning. It's quick and responsive, has the always on screen, and still has amazing battery life. I am VERY please with the purchase. Don't regret it at all. **Bonus: It went on a significant sale about 1 week after I bought it. Best Buy made it really easy to submit a request to be refunded the difference. Got about $90 back. Thanks so much!

    I am actually not a huge fan of the always on display, I honestly don’t think it was a big enough feature to ´wow’ me. Also I wish it had more built in features or things that come with the watch app like the Fitbit and Fitbit app does. To me, tracking sleep and diet should be included, and the activity app is limited. Definitely needs a better battery, and more options within the app itself. I don’t think I need the cellular version but I can understand why people like to have it. I get that’s it more a smart watch than a fitness tracker, but for the price, I shouldn’t be comparing it to my Fitbit Versa, which offered more for $200 less. It’s good for iPhone users like myself, where the mirror my iPhone options come in handy. However, there’s much more to be improved.

    Excellent piece of machinery, I have had my Apple Watch for about a year now and it still looks like it just came out the packaging. It is fast, durable, and lightweight. Very responsive with a beautiful 48mm display. I highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a new watch.

    This is my third Apple Watch and I love wearing them. The 5 has the ability to notify 911 if you fall and do not get up in a certain amount of time. This is just one of the great features. I would and do tell all my friend and family about how great it is.

    This watch is as great as my series 1 which still runs great, holds battery power, and looks great. I was not happy that the larger size increased from 42mm to 44, but the old bands still fit, as Apple neglected to adjust to fit the groove fully, so that's got it's pros and cons. I was concerned about getting one without the GPS, but upon researching it found that it's a drain and I don't need it. I do wish it came in rose gold, but at least I wasn't forced to get the black one. The gold looks a little more delicate for a woman, and that's only important to me because I have small wrists and the face is large. I'm also old, so I can read it better since it's large. Again, pros and cons. I'm happy.

    I really love this watch because of its new features, one of the features is that it detects if I fall it will call emergency for me,I owned a series 2 and had it for years with no problems, I gave it to my sister and she says that she doesn’t know how she lived without it!

    Firstly- I like the features! Apple did a great job with interface, etc. NOW- the reason I did not give it 5 stars: the screen got its first scratch in less than one week! This is VERY disappointing, as I am NOT hard on any of my devices, iPhone, iPad, etc.... I work in an office environment, not construction! So- great watch, not so great screen. If you buy, good choice, BUT- treat it like you’re carrying a raw egg! :)

    I need an inconspicuous way to send and receive messages when I am working with customers. This watch was the perfect solution, as it links with my email and messaging apps, without pulling out a phone and blatantly taking attention away from my clients.

    This watch is significantly more responsive on most of it’s complications. The face is slightly larger making it easier to read. I’m a lap swimmer, and I am looking forward to getting in the pool with it once the pools are open again.

    Waited a long time before I finally bought an Apple Watch. For some reason it was important to have a watch where the display was always on. Battery life is decent not great. Great for tracking fitness and other health.

    I debated for a long time on whether to splurge and get an Apple Watch. My only complaint is that I didn’t do it sooner to track my workouts this summer. Really loving it! Great motivator to get out and move!
