    The constant on face makes such a difference and the features are extremely useful. You can customize it as much as you want and the apps are very useful. I can use it to change my thermostat or turn on and off my lights. The size is also convenient as it doesn't take over your whole forearm.

    Prior, I had a series 3 38mm. I like the bigger screen and bigger font, but dtill gives you the option to adjust the text size. All of the additional options as far as the fitness side has been beneficial with keep tracking of my goals/progress. Biggest advantage is that it has an actual keyboard to respond to texts rather than just the scribble option as before.

    Perfect size! The Starlight color is absolutely stunning and goes with everything! This is my first Apple Watch and I find it easy to navigate and read for someone who is over 50! I especially like that I can keep my iPhone in my purse or tucked in a pocket rather than leaving it sitting on a dirty table and still read my texts, etc. I highly recommend this Apple Watch!

    I like the product was debating in getting it because I had one before and the reason why i didn’t like the first one was because it was too small but I think this size it’s perfect not too big or small just right for me… it’s an Apple product so mostly all apps will sync with your phone… personally don’t like the bans that they come with not a fan of the silicone but you can always buy separate ones… easy to use, battery life is great durability it’s decent it’s aluminum so it’ll get ding here and there, comfort wise I’d rather get the stretch bands don’t like the silicone ones

    Battery life is incredible and the sensors for activity and heart rate seem to be better. I also like that it has better options for do not disturb and sleep. Haven't tried using it to track my sleep but am glad that it's an option. I love that it came with 3 months of free Apple Fitness, Apple TV, and Apple News!

    I love this upgrade. I had a Series 3 and it still worked but the Series 8 had so many options that I decided to splurge. I love the screen since it no longer has the border. The touch sensitivity works well and texting on the watch is quite easy. Overall I say yes. I use it all day and charge it for 30 minutes before bed each day have never had the watch run out of battery.

    It’s been almost 3 years since I purchased this and can I just say - wow. It’s changed my lifestyle. It syncs to my iPhone so I’m able to respond to texts and answer calls, it tracks my steps and exercises, and heart rate. I initially bought it to track my half marathon but it’s a must for me daily now. I love all the features and its continuous updates! I recommend purchasing watch straps though since the factory one it comes with gets dirty easily and so that you have variety. I also recommend getting a watch screen protector just in case you drop it

    Fabulous watch that syncs easily with my iPhone. Its a favorite at my home with 3 members in our family of 4 owning an Apple Watch! In fact, we are an out an out Apple fanatics - be it laptop, iPad, Airpods, Apple watch, etc. The added bonus is the great service given by the Best Buy team in giving us a quick glance into the features and the ease of use. With a team like the Geek squad to support the customers, Best Buy is the place to shop for electronic items of any brand! Having been a member for a few years now, I would strongly recommend Best Buy!

    I love my Apple Watch. It tracks my daily activity, making me want to do more. It tracks your sleep patterns. It can do an EKG, all sorts of stuff. And it does not have to have a phone plan. Your iPhone just needs to be in its range. It also will call for help if you fall. I thought that could be very helpful

    This is my first Apple Watch after owning two other fitness trackers and I’m I love it! Bigger screen, more reliable wristband, more apps. I’d gone through 4 Fitbits in 5 years, but learned from Apple Watch users that they’ve had their Apple Watches for years. It’s a win-win!
