    I love it! I wanted it for tracking workouts & runs without my phone. Love the move & breathe reminders. I like being able to see notifications without my phone. I love not having to carry my phone around all day. The watch tracks everything better. Though I did not know you had to get a third party sleep app and some others.

    3rd Apple Watch

    A gift for my wife, as I had previously gotten her the Series 2, and then the Series 3. The Series 5 has all the features she loves, as she is an exercise fanatic. Since I purchased this during the Covid crisis, I utilized Best Buy's curbside pickup, and the process was smooth and efficient. Great job Best Buy!!

    This is my first Apple Watch and so far I really really love it. They always on display is exactly what I needed, I get tired of having to click the button on my old Samsung watch just to see the time. So far, the watch has been great and it keeps me updated on my walking in my steps and things that I need to get done.

    So happy with my purchase. I decided to purchase the series 5 instead of an older series. This is my first Apple Watch so I’m excited to learn all of its features. I ordered online and received in the mail very quickly! My watch was packaged securely and I had no problems with it being delivered to my door!

    This was a gift for my wife who often misses important calls and texts because she doesn’t have her phone nearby. This has become more of an issue as we now care for our granddaughters and their parents like immediate communications. The watch has solved this problem...as long as she wears it!

    I purchased this for my grandma which has A fib. She is also in her late 80s. So she can get notifications when she starts going into A fib or her heart rate gets to high. Also since she lives alone just Incase she slips , trips or falls so if she doesn’t respond emergency services will be notified as well as here emergency contact. I also showed here how to notify emergency services Incase she ever needed them. Give both her and our family piece of mind.

    Attractive Watch Protection

    I wasn’t sure what to expect but this bumper is better than I imagined. Very lightweight yet sturdy and attractive. It fits my watch perfectly and is not bulky. I am confident it will provide protection from unexpected and accidental bumps. I’m so impressed and it’s so affordable that I bought my daughter one as well.

    I like it. But I have to go on the internet to learn how to use it. I have a hard time learning what all it will do. Apple needs to send there products with a manual.

    I’ve been waiting to purchase an Apple Watch. So when it went on sale I purchased one. It makes it very convenient. I wish the battery would last longer.

    Skipped the first upgrade & glad I did. Seems strange that 2mm would make such a HUGE difference, but it did. Other than the size difference, the series 5 combines the best of all previous versions. If you waited like I did, it’s time to upgrade.

    Short Battery Life

    Great looking watch. Great features. Easy setup. VERY POOR BATTERY PERFORMANCE. Apple Watch should get two thumbs up easily. Fills all the voids for such a highly technical time keeping piece to wear on your wrist. the big problem is that you'll run out of battery pretty quickly. Charging becomes more necessary even with minimal app use. It should be called "Hummingbird" after the little creatures because, like the Hummingbird, the watch is going to need a fix often.

    It’s nice but I’m just used to the old battery life. The “Always On” option drains the battery so fast. My last watch only needed charged every 2 days

    Great upgrade from series 2 for my wife

    I purchased a series 2 for my wife several years ago. The battery life is great, lasting 15 to 18 hours per charge. Having GPS + Cellular means that she doesn't have to keep her phone with her every minute if someone in our family would need her and this is "peace of mind". Great purchase!

    I bought this watch for it's safety features ( calling for help if I should have an emergency or fall), but I am enjoying all the other features that I have learned to use. There are so many things that this old Grandma may never learn to use them all! But I am glad I made this purchase!

    The new features for the series 5 are great but whether it’s worth the extra couple of hundred dollars over the series 3 is up to you. I love the slimmer profile and the always on display but other than that it’s pretty much the same.
