    I can’t survive without my Apple Watch. My previous watch (it was the first edition) was dying on me. I dropped it and damaged it. I had to have another Apple Watch immediately. I was able to get what I wanted at Best Buy. Love the added features of the newer model.

    I kept dragging my feet in getting this watch, so glad I did get it. I feel like Inspector Gadget when I can talk on my phone while working or doing something I cannot be distracted with holding my phone. First world problems I know but there ya go!

    Excellent watch! I love how the Series 5 stays on all the time. It looks like an actual digital watch- not a black box on your wrist. Battery life is good too. Very happy with my purchase. They price matched Walmart too!

    I went from Apple 1 watch to the 5! Love the new one! My 1 series would not connect to Iphone 11. So had to keep the technology. Works great, love that I can pair wireless earbuds and not have to carry my phone at all. It’s only $10.00 to add this service to my AT&T account.

    I purchased this watch for my wife and she absolutely loves it. She loves that it tracks her heart rate and steps, that she can control her phone from it and that she can play music from it. its a stunning piece that she loves and no longer wears a regular watch

    Very pleased with my watch - I bought right before I went to New Orleans for Mardi Gras as I didn’t want to have to carry my phone around and risk losing it but I didn’t want to miss any calls or messages, so this was perfect. The calls come in very clear and so easy to use

    There is a little bit of a learning curve even for the computer literate but, I love the convenience of being able to answer my phone if I accidentally forgot it at home. You can customize the face, had Minnie mouse for awhile and switched to a flower that blossoms at intervals.

    This is my first Apple Watch purchase. I love all the features I've learned so far and I know there is much more to learn. Fits great and I love that it comes with 2 length size bands for your wrist so it's not too small or too large.

    Bought for the automatic EMS ability without having to carry a phone since I walk very early in the am. After using it, it really is convenient as opposed to pulling out your phone to see your health and distance progress as well as for everyday usage for text, email, etc.

    I love this watch, especially as a fitness tracker. It helps that I don’t have to have my phone with me all the time too. As a teacher who is currently teaching virtually, I love that it gives me a reminder to stand up and move around throughout the day

    Love it. I also bought one for my husband. He has AFIB so the heart monitor is excellent for him. I hope I can do better on the exercise monitor. I’m not best at filling that circle band on my watch. I’m working with doctors to get my movement goals reached.

    My Fitbit display faded to unreadable and had to replace. Decided to switch to Apple Watch. Love it. wish I had got one sooner. Works so well with iPhone and other apple devices. Also really like the Fitness+ app.

    Finally made the jump from Fitbit to Apple Watch. Since all my other devices are Apple it just made sense. Loving the integration and functionality. Also found an app that syncs up to a year of data. Looking forward to a fitter and more organized year!

    The watch is very convenient and easy to use. It’s not bulky and I don’t need to travel with my cell phone when going to the gym or exercising. I’ve owned this watch for three weeks and I have no issues. It’s much better than my previous Apple series 3 watch.

    Perfect Value for money. I got it as a gift for my sister and she is soo happy with it. The plus point of this watch is the great hardware and the apple ecosystem. I can unlock my iphone and my mac with it. Amazing !!

    I’m old school but I ran into some safety issues in the area I work so I bought this mainly for safety reasons. Don’t want to get attacked while working in downtown. At least you’ll have a chance to call 911 if you get separated from your phone.

    I was looking to be able to not have to take phone out of my pocket to receive notices and give quick short replies. I didn’t know about the walkie talkie option which is great when shopping with my daughter to divide and conquer a large list.

    The watch is great, as can be expected from an Apple product. I purchased the watch using same-day pickup from Best Buy. The process was seamless, which was particularly surprising since I did this on *launch day.* Can't recommend the same-day pickup highly enough!
