    I bought the watch for my husband as an anniversary present - he likes it, but the first day the watchband broke. He tried to bring it back but they would not take it back until he gave them the code he used to log things. He only used one code and they said that was not it. He asked for just a new band, but they said they had to take the whole watch back. As he had not used a different code (he used the same one as his phone) and they could not take it back, I bought him a new band from another store. It works perfectly! He actually likes this band better.

    Over hyped. Its a nice convenience and stylish. Eliminates the need to pull your phone out of your pocket every notification. Still getting use too. Can be difficult to set up and navigate

    Works fine, but very pricey. Replaced a series 4 with this one and does very little more. Just a little too much money for minimal upgrade.

    I purchased an Apple Watch as a gift for a work Christmas party. Everyone wanted it, and kept stealing it in the White Elephant gift exchange! The woman who ended up with it LOVES it, but is going to exchange it for the smaller version. Needless to say, it was a HIT!

    This was a Christmas gift for my husband. He loves it! He couldn’t wait for Christmas so he has been wearing it since I purchased it! He is still finding different apps he can use. This was a great gift and he is really happy with it,

    This is my first Apple watch, and I am impressed but also disappointed. I love the big screen and the ability to see who is at my door through my ring camera, but the battery life is unimpressive. I have had to charge this watch every night, so it hasn't been able to catch my vitals at night. With my Fitbit I had to charge it every three to four days.

    Apple Watch keeps getting better. Purchased the Apple Watch 8 to replace my Apple Watch 6. Great upgrade! Watch is more responsive and looks clean with the new midnight case. Highly recommend!

    It does have a lot of things that are handy to have, like the ability to make or receive calls and messages. It does have a fitness app that works with your iPhone, it’s not as easy as the Fitbit Versa to use or gives me the info I look for on the watch. I’m still learning more about how to use the things that are available on the watch.

    Really nice and handy, especially since you don’t need your phone all the time. The fall detection is really valuable as it will call 911 and your emergency contacts.

    I noticed a big difference from my Series 4. Love the always on feature and larger display. The blood oxygen and crash detection features are a welcomed bonus!

    Upgrade to the ultra if you can, after the first year the battery life is much less and the stress of charging it takes over the convenience provided.
