    I never thought I would answer phone calls with a watch, check the weather, run a one point EKG on myself, enjoy an “as the world turns” rotating earth from space, or find a list of more stuff available than I can imagine. Still waiting for longer recharge intervals, but found a setting that more than doubled interval.

    Not sure if Apple discontinued the red Apple Watch; but I haven't been able to find it at any retail store, even the fruit company themselves (at least locally). Anyways, got lucky finding an open box at Best Buy, and was surprised at the condition of it - it literally looked new and it was still eligible for AppleCare. It was a gift for my girlfriend, and although I didn't like buying an "open box", it was nice how the item included original inserts, cable was neatly packaged as if it had just come from Apple, the watch was in its protective sleeve, etc, and being able to add that extra coverage made it worth it. I'm sure some will see it as dishonest; but I did purchase a nice portable/travel charging case for the watch, an additional strap, and gave to her in a backpack that she wanted. Told her I had opened it to swap straps out and because I wanted to surprise her by having her find it in the backpack - it worked, and I still gave her the original box and AppleCare shows in her support app.

    I purchased my watch in November & I still absolutely love it. The battery life is amazing & it only takes 30 minutes to charge it. I had the I-watch 3 & couldn’t even get the software updates as it’d say I didn’t have enough memory on it & the battery life was bad to. I highly recommend this watch.

    Love it, it a little bit larger than I expected and I did like that improvement. The keyboard is very easy to use and useful for quick text messages. I love that I can check my heart rate and oxygen in an instant. I like all the new features that comes with this new watch.

    I use this watch everyday for the past year. It’s not heavy or bulky and looks great!…very stylish! I like the convenience of receiving notifications on my watch when my phone is not in my hand. It charges very quickly.

    Love this watch. I'm primarily use the fitness options, but the watch is very user-friendly and has a lot of cool features I'm just learning to use. I do wish the battery life for a little bit longer, but it charges incredibly fast.

    I switched from Android to an iPhone and I love it! My old Samsung watch was not working very well so I purchased the Apple Watch 8 series. I love all of the features and it has not let me down! I did have to switch out the band because silicone bands make my wrist break out.

    Having been my first Apple Watch since my series 4 the improvements and addition while seeming gimmicky and useless do add the sense of giving you more. Comfortable and just the right size for my wrist. But do make sure you get your correct wrist size before purchasing your watch size.

    I bought this for my wife as an upgrade from her earlier model of Apple Watch. Needless to say she loves it! It’s great for tracking fitness, previewing notifications, and tenting and is durable enough for her to wear all day while she works.

    Got this watch for my wife to upgrade from a previous version of the Apple Watch. So many useful additions in this version, including crash detection. Hopefully will never have to use it but better to have it than not. Perfect size, very lightweight. Put some protection around it and now it's dailywear!
