    Everything I wanted in a watch. I haven’t got a protective case yet, so sometimes when I’m working out my wrist hits the crown button and Siri always begins to speak and it can be annoying, I’ve been told to turn it off but I don’t want to - someone said a case may help with it pressing. Either way I love it!!

    This is a great watch. I really like all the alerts from my phone. I have used it to track long bike rides and other exercise. it is great to be able to leave you phone in the car or at home and ride, while still getting texts and phone calls.

    I really love the Apple watch. It is worth having especially when you workout. I love how it reminds you that you need to move and breathe. There are several option for workouts. I believe it is pretty accurate with the steps and the activity. I also love the ability to answer calls thru the watch

    Overall I love this smart watch. It makes not having to carry my iPhone everywhere and all the time a viable option as I can still take calls and respond to texts or messenger alerts with the raise of my wrist. So convenient and the attention I get wearing it makes it a totally cool status piece.

    Watch was purchased as an upgrade from a series 1 watch, which still functions well. Love the new features and am enjoying owning this watch. A bit expensive, but worth the cost.

    So, if you're reading this review, then I am sure you've read all the hype about the new Apple Watch Series 5. They hype stands up.. Always on screen is probably one of my favorite features. Battery life lasts all day even with the screen on. New watch faces, fast LTE... Definitely the best Apple Watch to date!

    My Apple Watch

    I love my Apple Watch for its functionality. I use it for tracking workouts and keeping in contact with friends, clients, and family while on trails and working out. I don't have to carry my phone with me when walking or riding because the watch has its own phone number and functions as a phone as well. Love it! The one problem I have is that the finish is chipping off the rim even though I got the case for it. I think over time, the finish will wear off completely. I'm not hard on my equipment so this is a big disappointment for what I paid for the watch.

    I upgraded from series 3 to the series 5. I really like the fact that the screen is always on. I have not noticed any problems with battery life, still goes all day. The heart monitoring features are cool. I’m okay with the 44mm size but I wouldn’t want it any bigger. Overall I’m very happy with the purchase.

    I upgraded from a 42mm stainless series 1 to this. Of course it’s better and I can receive my calls without the phone while exercising. I opted for aluminum this time because it’s light weight. Can’t see much of a difference from 42mm to 44mm. I can use my old bands with this. Like it a lot so far.

    The watch itself is so much easier to work, to use then my Apple 3 watch. I really like the design and layout. I think it is very user friendly. The design faces are all really cool although I miss not have my toy story and Mickey Mouse faces. Great purchase would recommend to anyone to get!

    The Apple Watch is still in that "young product phase," like the iPhone was the first 5-7 years, where every new generation still has "wow" improvements. I had the first Apple Watch, then the Series 3, and now this new series. It is a very noticeable improvement. I do not regret upgrading one bit.

    It was for my wife. She is s nurse and her series two quit working. Since I bought her one, she has always loved her Apple Watch. It was a no brainer for me when the other quit working. Ordered and Best Buy delivered again in a timely manner and with ease on their web site.

    This was my first smart watch and I like it so far. I like it’s connectivity to iPhone. Ability to make calls, use text messaging is very convenient. I do not need the phone with me all the time. I also like the health related apps. I attempt to complete the circles everyday.

    I’ve had many sports watches, but this one is the best so far. Love that I can see it when outside. Very easy to use functions. Activity tracking is very good and accurate. Love the ability to get calls, etc. without trying to get to my phone. Highly recommend.

    I have owned every version of the Apple Watch and the new functions of this version are really great. I have really enjoyed the fact that the watch face stays illuminated all the time. This makes checking the time easier. There are newer watch faces that are also a nice improvement.
