    My second Apple Watch. Incredible. It charges very fast and last for over three days. I really enjoy the complications. A great watch with lots of health apps.

    This was a replacement for my Apple Watch Series 4 and the upgrades are very nice. It is just 1mm larger than my Series 4 model so a lot of the bands I had fit.

    The product red is sleek the color pops and people will notice it. This watch is a huge upgrade compared to the series 3 watch that I had for 4 years. The animations are incredibly smooth and the battery lasts all day. Con: Battery life is exactly the same as my 4 year old series 3 watch and still needs to be charged every 24-36 hours or so.

    Not as fitness focused as I'd hoped.

    As a long time Apple phone user I had high hopes for this my first Apple watch. However, I was disappointed coming from an older Garmin Vivivofit 3 with the fitness capabilities and display of the Apple product. With the Garmin watch? I could easily see step data immediately on the face. With the Apple Watch, seems like it took 3 steps to get there. Ridiculous. Especially while I'm working out. I decided that the Garmin Venu 2+ was a better fit for me and my exercise centered focus so I took the Apple Watch back - saving hundreds of dollar in the process. Also I can get days of battery life on the Garmin but not the Apple. I also hated the watch band with it's tuck under and snap engineering rather than the conventional style that everybody and their grandmother is used to. Sometimes what works well should be left alone. Now, if you aren't fitness focused so much? The Apple watch will work fine and you might appreciate the integration with your Iphone centered universe. With my Apple Phone in hand, I just felt like it was repeated overkill (and on a much more difficult to see and navigate screen.)

    This is my first Apple Watch. I was a long time android user and had Samsung watch. I definitely enjoy the square shell other than the round of the Samsung. With my Samsung watch, I tried to wear it every day but sometimes I forgot and now with my Apple Watch I never leave home without it because without it on my wrist, it feels like something is missing. Very user-friendly and just agree overall experience with this Apple product.

    The only difference between this Series and the previous gen I had were ECG and tracking periods. I wasn't sure if it was worth the money, but the watch did notify me of a potential issue to discuss with my doctor and I'm glad I did. Otherwise, it's just like previous generations. It works great in the Apple ecosystem, love using it to find my phone and seeing messages on my watch. Taking calls on my watch is pretty clear. I somehow scratched the screen on my keys already, but with how the battery life decreases over time, I'll probably get a new one in 2 years.

    Enjoy the watch and use the health app to track my exercise and sleep. Still learning all the things it can do. I do have to charge it once a day which is about the only negative
