    I upgraded from the 3 to the 8 Apple Watch! I bought the 45 mm black and I am completely;y satisfied. I like this 8 better because the face is always on. The 3 would black out and I had to shake wrist to get illumination. The size of the watch is excellent, even though I have a small sized wrist. This watch is a keeper!! I do need to charge the watch daily!

    This was actually the 2md apple watch I bought, it was that good. Easy to use, kinda easy to setup, ios is not all that great. If you could use this watch with an android phone that to me would be game over in the smartwatch world. Definitely recommend for anybody who don't have an apple watch yet

    Omg if you want a good watch you need this. The sleek design and the way you can change the bands out. I think I have purchased over 20 different bands to swap out with different outfits or just the mood I'm in daily.

    Got the Apple watch a few weeks ago. It's very good. Nice design and easy to wear. My only complaint is the short battery life. Be prepared to charge every two days or so (and in some cases, every day). I mostly use mine for running and tracking my exercise. For that purpose, it has been really accurate and a great product.

    This is my third Smart Watch. Prior to I had Samgsun and Fitbit. I wanted to try apple even though I knew before hand it has lower battery life compared to the other brands. The watch is comfortable and the display easy to read. It is really an extension of the iphone. That was obvious as soon as I saw what was on it. Overall I am satisfied with the functions. The best feature for me is being able to respond to texts right from my watch, same with emails, you can connect to Siri independently of your phone and there are many more features which I haven't tapped yet. On the improvements the two I don't like are the cardiovascular features. The heart rate monitor is really not accurate. You're better off with the handheld finger devices. The errors are consistent and at least 5 to 7 points off every time. Next is the pulseoximeter which is also off by about 5-7 points as well. So in this sense its not dependable. Its also slow and it will countdown from 15 seconds which is too long. The finger units can't be beat. The Fitbit and the Samsung perform much better, faster and more accurate with a lower margin of error of +-1. I would not trust an EKG or ECG with this device so I didn't even try. The faces are all dull, I don't like many of them. The mickey mouse one is very cute and I like it. But the others are just pain boring. Compared to what you can have with Samsung, there's just no comparison. I downloaded three separate third party apps, to see if I could find something good, and there were some, but not many. Much much more needs to be done to bring this up to par at where we are today. Battery life isnt great. If you receive texts, and messages from apps, and emails you will run it down to 50% in a few hours. The good news is that the watch will charge from 65% to 100 in about an hour. The day Apple gives us a 5 day battery will be a glorious day. The sound from the watch isn't very loud. I have it at the loudest setting and it really needs a bit more oomph. so this should be addressed as well. I can't speak to its durabilty because its only been three weeks. I've showered with it with no issues, but i've not submerged it. I think the spec says resistant to 50 meters. Fix these things, and it would be a great great watch.

    I purchased this apple watch about a year ago and it still works great! I didn’t think I needed a watch beforehand but decided to get one due to some friends who recommended it to me. This watch was probably one of the best purchases I’ve made at the time and I still use it to this day. I use it to go to the gym, work, school, and many more events. It is great for counting your steps and tracking health conditions one may have, such as high blood pressure. I wear and use my watch so much that now I feel weird if I don’t have it lol. This product is very useful and I recommend it!

    I’ve only had it for a week or two now, and it already alllerted me that my heartrate had gotten really high while I was relaxing, tracked my sleep and told me how much sleep I was really getting, and continues to motivate me to get up and move around more.

    This is the perfect watch for reaching fitness goals. Love that it is waterproof and can be used when swimming. Love the heart rate feature. The quality is wonderful. The option to change out the bands is another plus. I would totally purchase this for gifts.

    Marginal upgrade from my Apple Watch Series 7, but it's always nice to have the latest and greatest. I actually don't see much difference in the Series 8 from the previous model. Still, I use my Apple Watch so much that I'm glad I have the newest model.

    This watch is very convenient when I don’t have my phone one me or am not able to use my phone in certain cases. I love the features it has and how smooth everything runs. I wasn’t sure if I should get a watch in the first place, but it has helped me in many ways.

    I love that its bigger than my previous apple watch. I could text on my previous one, but it was theough my finger drawing out the shapes, not on a keyboard. The additional health apps and widgets that are tied in with my watch have helped me trace my heart rate so much.

    I love being able to have a full keyboard on the screen, makes it a lot easier than having to write the letters out. The battery life is amazing I don’t have to charge it for 2-3 days depending on how it’s used. I highly recommend the series 8 45mm
