    I love my apple watch series 8. It's easy to see your phone notifications on it. I can see my phone apps and use them right from my watch. It's definitely an upgrade from my apple watch series 5.

    Short battery life but reliable watch

    If you’re deep in the Apple ecosystem and want top-tier health features in a sleek, easy-to-use form, the Series 8 GPS is a smart choice—without the price premium of cellular models. However, battery life remains its Achilles’ heel, especially during sleep tracking or long days away from a charger. For most users, nightly charging is manageable—just plan around it. Like the GPS Cellular version, it frustrated me with short battery life

    I didn’t know if I would use this or not, and honestly bought it on a whim after getting a new job. As someone who has ADHD, I find it helps me a lot with keeping track of the important things! The battery life is amazing and if you aren’t messing with it too much, I’ve gotten as much as 2 days without having to charge. I also find that I’m more motivated to get active and close my rings every day! All in all, as someone who has never worn any kind of watch before, I can’t recommend this enough!

    Upgrade from Google's Fitbit

    Very happy with the Apple 8 Series watch. I like the features and the that all the health readings display on Fitness+ when I work out. Works great when linked to my TV and can see all my stats. This was a change from Fitbit which Google seems to have broken since they bought it. You have to recharge daily, but the watch lets you know when you're reaching a critical point. Not a big deal for me.

    First off: BestBuy is the way to go to buy it. I have the Geek Squad upgrade so the cost of APPLECARE was $0. I am 60yo senior who upgraded from a tracker to this Apple Watch Series 8. After the initial learning curve, I have come to love this watch. My main concern of not being able to keep it charged has been eliminated because the silly watch reminds me to charge at 8pm each night. SWEEET... It is colorful and gives me way more info that I need but I LOVE it...

    Having been only a garmin watch user, I found that this apple watch has been more beneficial for me. GPS is on par with garmin, finding my phone when misplaced by using the “beep mechanism” has been super helpful. In addition when driving and I want to quickly skip songs, i can use my watch to control it. I recommend this watch overall :)

    Another great Apple product! This is my second Apple Watch to replace my 3 1/2 year old Series 5 watch. The only issue I had with the old one was it was slowly losing its ability to hold a charge as all electronics do over time. I like this new watch as it’s essentially the same as the old but a few more bells & whistles. I got a good price on the Series 8 & with a modest trade in on my old watch, I’m very pleased with my purchase!

    Bought this for my wife as she’s busy around the house with the kids during the day, and also hates looking at her phone for directions while driving. Very easy and intuitive to use. She swears she can’t live without it now. Uses it daily. Good value. Good battery life. Very feature rich and customizable. Overall thrilled with my purchase.

    Wife loves the watch. She loves that it tells you how well you slept the night before. She loves to be able to check heart rate and blood oxygen level when ever she wants. Cool little back grounds. She loves snoopy. Always on display is pretty cool as well. Battery goes all day. Normally puts it on charger about hour before she goes to bed. Then it’s good till the next night. Well worth the money spent.
