    Not sure what’s going on with it, but does not come on when you turn your wrist, as my previous one did. Only lights up when you press side button. My only fear is I bought the open box to save a few dollars. Taking back to the store.

    Switching from my old AppleWatch to this new one was simple and easy. The always on screen is great and easy to read the bigger screen makes interacting with the watch easier then I thought possible. The battery life on this new watch is great, if I am away from home and forget my charging cable, I can go almost 3 days without worry now.

    Not worthed. I got two Apple Watches. Each of them had 4month free fitness and Apple News. But Best Buy gave me only one. Watch side: if you are not a camper or doing worked out regularly a lower version (cheaper one) would work. No need to pay for cycle tracking or blood oxygen

    Thought I purchased a Series 8 as advertised, but the back of the watch is clearly marked Series 6. In addition there was no charging disk, making the watch absolutely useless!!! BIG RIP OFF!!! So my grandson had NO CHRISTMAS gift from me!

    Life saving

    On August 24, 2021, my life took an unexpected turn when I was involved in a devastating car accident. I was driving at over 60 miles per hour when a young lady unexpectedly crossed my path, leading to a collision that would change both of our lives forever. While the outcome was tragically fatal for her, it was also the day I discovered how remarkable technology can be in the most unexpected circumstances. At the heart of this incredible story is my Apple Watch, a device I wore daily for its convenience and health-tracking features. Little did I know that on that fateful day, my Apple Watch would become my lifeline. The accident was sudden and severe, leaving me disoriented and injured. I was unable to reach my phone to call for help. That's when my Apple Watch sprang into action. Its fall detection feature, designed to identify sudden falls and provide assistance, detected the impact from the collision. It promptly asked if I was okay and initiated a countdown to call emergency services. In my state of shock, I was barely able to respond to my watch's query, but it didn't need much from me. When the countdown reached its end, my Apple Watch automatically called 911 and shared my precise location with the emergency responders. This critical feature allowed them to reach the scene of the accident promptly, potentially saving my life in the process. While my Apple Watch couldn't change the tragic outcome for the young lady involved in the accident, it served as a reminder of the incredible potential of wearable technology in emergencies. It's a stark reminder that technology isn't just about convenience and entertainment; it can be a true lifesaver in times of crisis. I share this story not to dwell on the tragedy but to highlight the importance of understanding and utilizing the safety features available in our tech devices. My experience underscores the value of innovations like fall detection and emergency calling on wearable devices like the Apple Watch. It's a testament to the potential for technology to be a companion that's there for us when we need it the most. As we continue to integrate technology into our daily lives, let us remember to explore and use its features designed to keep us safe, because you never know when a small device on your wrist might make all the difference.
