    I purchased this watch as it was highly recommended by a close friend of same age. I’m astounded by all of its features. Haven’t worn a watch in decades, but now I very much like having it at hand!

    I love this watch, I replaced a 7 with this 8 mainly because my 7 battery life was getting low. This 8 has all the features of the 7 but somehow I like it better. I bought on sale and got $95 trade in for the 7 so it was a great deal.

    This has been a game changer. I love the fitness tracking and the simple reminders to stand up and stretch along with being able to view iPhone alerts without having to pull my phone out of my purse or having to make sure it is always on me.

    Love my Apple Watch. Originally got it to call for help if I fell after my knee surgery. But I use the weather app to pick best time to walk me and the dog. Also use fitness app to move every hour to prevent blood clots since surgery. And with all the snow this winter, I rely on the heart app to worn me of problems when shoveling snow. I did switch to the braided solo band for comfort and ease of use. And I rotate the series 8 watch with my series 3, which is 6 years old and works, but doesn’t update any more.

    Bought this to replace her series 3 and it is amazing. Really fast compared to the series 3 and also the inclusion of the temperature sensor is a plus. Also a bigger screen is really helpful when reading messages

    I absolutely love my iwatch. I’ve had the 1st, 2nd and the latest generation of iwatch. Battery life is excellent for what I need, and it charges fast. Features are endless and is a great companion to your Apple iPhone.

    I absolutely love my Apple Watch 8. The screen is a bit bigger than I'm used to since I upgraded from a FitBit, but since it mirrors my iPhone I never miss a message (as long as my phone is nearby) and I love the reminders to move. I've become more motivated to close my rings each day. I would give it 5 Stars, except that the one feature of FitBit that I liked that is not available on Apple is the food tracking. On FitBit you entered your food on the app and it automatically tracked your exercise so you always knew how you were doing on calories in vs. calories out. With the Apple you have to use a 3rd party (I chose MyFitnessPal) app to track food and while the one I use does sync with my watch to track steps, I have to manually enter any additional exercise I do. It's not a deal breaker, but I do wish that Apple Fitness (or Apple Watch) offered the ease of tracking calories in vs. calories out. One of the benefits of the Apple Watch over my Fitbit is that the sleep tracking on Apple is significantly better. Some of the sleep tracking functions that come standard on Apple are only available for premium subscription on Fitbit. Taking all of that into consideration, when I go to replace it - hopefully years from now - I will stick with Apple as the benefits significantly outweigh the drawbacks.

    I love my new Apple Watch. I had the Series 6 before but this version has added many great features. I also purchased on sale which was an easy buy. BestBuy assisted me online and made it so much easier also.

    I had a series 5 Apple Watch but found that it would not keep a charge for a full day. Upgrading to the series 8 version was a great move. Battery life is SOOO much improved. It was easy to transfer the information from one watch to another.

    I upgraded an older watch to this one and I'm glad I did. The new features and performance are better. Everything you'd expect from a new watch series.

    It’s an Apple Watch and works! Wife is happy replacing an older Apple Watch 5 which only gave her about 15 hours of battery life, battery life in the Apple Watch 8 lasts about 25 hours and charges faster.

    i like this watch , didn't want to return it, because its very accurate . Sleep tracking and ECG very cool features to have. Problem is battery. After having a garmin watch is very difficult to go back to a every day charge watch.
