    I got this watch for my husband. We are getting older and I was interested in the fall detection. It took me a bit to set it up but once I did, we're very happy with it. There is so much good information it gives and it's been easy to use. I plan to buy another one for me.

    I like the watch and all of the features. Still discovering everything it can do. Switched from a Fitbit, and miss some of the functionality of using that. But I enjoy the ease of pairing my phone with my watch and answering calls and returning texts, etc. I wish the battery lasted longer.

    Bought Apple Watch series 8 and love the look , the feel and how easy it was to set up! It is so much easier to look at your wrist for messages, phone calls, etc instead of carrying your phone all the time. Also love the fitness app as well! Would definitely recommend.

    I bought this watch for my son so he can keep track of his fitness goals and heart rate. It is a great size and works perfectly with his Iphone 14. It is definitely worth the investment - and even though it was an open box purchase - it arrived quickly and in excellent condition.

    I have been using this watch for nearly two years, and it continues to perform as effectively as it did when it was new. I have encountered no issues with it and use it on a daily basis.

    This watch exceeded my expectations. I wanted it to track my steps but I got a lot more out of it than that. I love that it shows my sleep patterns and fitness patterns. Great tool if you’re looking to improve your overall fitness and sleep patterns!

    Bought this watch as a gift for my wife's birthday. She never had an IWatch before and this Apple Watch Series 8 does more than what her Garmin watches do. She will never go back and so easy to use and with her Apple Phone she does more than with the Garmin. Apple Watch Series 8 is outstanding.

    Great watch. I used to never wear one. I love that I can find my phone with it. Get updates on my health is fun. Tracks physical activity great. I feel weird if I don’t wear it now.

    This was given as a gift to my wife. She has worn FitBits in the past, but has been increasing amazed at what the watch can do. No technical difficulties, but the charging requirements she feels are a bit different and more frequent, requiring some alterations to what she does for watches and laptops. She loves it.

    I was hesitant to buy something that was this expensive at first. Thinking “it’s just a watch I could get another one for cheaper” but i was convinced to get it. Thankfully i did because this watch helps me in so many ways while i work and try to spend less time on my phone.

    I was having health issue so I got the watch for that reason mainly, since then I’ve learned it has so many valuable features. I love the fact it can also do so much by being connected to my iphone, like text or even take a call like the Jetsons lol!

    I wasn't sure at first if I liked this watch, but I have grown to like it. Once you figure out how to use it, it provides helpful feedback about health, steps, activity, etc. I also like connecting my Air Pods to it and listening to music on a walk (so I no longer need my phone with me).

    I have been an iwatch user for about 6 years now. I switched from a Series 2, and this one feels so different. Feels like a larger screen and so many more options. I think its a great switch from a series 2, and hopefully will hold me theough another 4 years!

    Love it. First watch I’ve bought since the original series 1, and it’s perfect! Also, the battery lasts for almost two whole days, so forgetting to charge it one night won’t mean waking up to a dead watch a few hours later. I have nothing bad to say, or think it’s lacking anything, great investment.

    I already had series 7 and upgraded to the 8 specifically for the wrist temp feature but I guess I misunderstood how it was used. I thought it would give u a temperate reading like 98.9F but it doesn't work that way. It take 5 nights to track your baseline (whatever that is for me because it doesn't tell me what my baseline is) and then it will say + or - a certain degree above or below baseline so for example last night was 0.69+ above baseline. All that information is confusing and useless to me but I love every other feature that Apple Watch offers so I'm still fairly happy with my purchase. Another downside is that the wristband was too large for my wrist. The series 7 came with 2 different sizes of wristbands a large and a s/m. This one only came with a large. I had to purchase another band separately. If u don't have an Apple Watch but u want one then I would definitely recommend this one but if u already have a earlier model then it's not worth buying this one yet

    I use this daily to track fitness and look at my texts come through. I feel lost without it. I love being able to adjust volume of videos with my watch. I probably don’t use all the features that I could but I would be lost without it now
