    I love it. I like the features. I just need to buy a smaller band cause my wrist is very small and it only came with 1 band cause I bought a floor model in excellent conditions cause I like to save money when possible.

    Disappointed that the battery doesn't even last for 24 hours even when I have it set up to save the battery and is supposed to help it last longer but it doesn't. Other than that I love the watch.

    Nice watch. As much as its costs it should’ve came with an adapter to charge it. Battery life doesn’t last long make sure to charge it daily.

    Great Apple Watch as usual. Disappointed in the temperature feature. I originally thought it takes your body temperature so I would no longer need to check my body temperature with a thermometer but it doesn't. It takes your wrist temperature to show you the temperature from baseline. What does that mean? Not sure, so I assume baseline is your normal body temperature range. If I knew this, I would have stuck with my Apple Watch Series 7 and skip Series 8.

    It’s not what I expected. I got this for the bells and whistles…and temperature analysis. My BBT is SO DIFFERENT than the temp that the Heath app reads every morning. Honestly, it’s good- but for what I use it for, I might as well go back to my classic watches. The battery used to be great- but one year in and it’s meh.

    It's a good watch in overall, but it caused a serious skin reaction and eczema on my hand. I quit wearing it after less than two months after purchase.

    So, I bought this Apple watch for my mom for Christmas, & she really likes it. My only issue so far, is that it came with a type-c end charger only instead a usb that would plug into any ole wall adapter. It fits into my Samsung, but not into her iPhone, so I'll have to buy her a charger, & this watch was already expensive enough. Overall, it's a decent device, tho. I took off stars for inconvenience.

    Doesn't come with everything you need

    So far, so good, EXCEPT it doesn't come with everything you need to change it. No charger block included, which is ridiculous at the price they are charging. The charger block that you have to buy (separately) is a USB-c. So I'm prepared to have this watch judge me for not doing any activity when it runs out of battery and I try to find time to buy a friggin block for it.

    I bought 2 of these and wrote a comprehensive review on the 1st one. Please refer to that review for details. NOT an "Apple Fanboy", but will still recommend this product for those who will overlook certain issues that I could not.

    I'm not so impressed yet ... battery life is not very good unless you have it on theater mode. Don't get the plain black if you're trying to use it for accessorizing with all your dressing styles. Overall I like it but I'm not sure it's worth all the hype.

    The device had some residue at the bottom of it. Like caked on makeup. It also came horribly packaged. For it being an excellent condition and paying over $250, I am disappointed

    Excellent watch use and enjoy all features. Only con is the aluminum casing scoffs very easily, and the midnight color coating on it reveals the silver under it.

    I previously had a series 6, but it was stolen. I purchased this one as a replacement. The battery on my series 6 lasted longer than this one. Besides that, it’s a good replacement.

    Was very excited to get the new edition after loving my series 3 for 4 years. After one month the 8 is in worse conditions than the 3. The screen is scratched significantly after normal wear.
