Many appreciate the stylish design and color options, along with the added benefit of blood oxygen monitoring and health tracking capabilities.

    Cute silver frame

    I love the silver frame on the watch, however no real difference from my other Apple watches. Also, the sports band does not irritate my skin like the other ones did.

    Within two years, I started having problems with this watch. It would randomly call 911. Now it won’t even power on. It seems as if this is a common problem from my Internet search to troubleshoot.

    Bought a series 9 for my wife in November and she loved it so i figured it was time to upgrade my mother’s as well. HOWEVER, upon comparing them we noticed my mother’s blood oxygen app said it was “unavailable” and after investigating we found that due to a lawsuit against Apple that feature was removed.

    Don’t trust Best Buy with for price matches.

    I was supposed to receive a price match and I never did. I price match it for target price but I wanted to go ahead and pick it up. So I went to Best Buy and I price matched it. They told me they would do it. I called multiple times to check on the price match. It’s now been over two weeks and I’ve received no information about it. Every single time I call they will say you receive a notification 48 hours after you request the price match. I told them it’s been a week then week and a half then two weeks. So in the end, I wish I would’ve just gotten it from target. At least I would’ve gotten it for a great price. Best Buy is full of nothing but scam artist. Don’t trust them when they say they will price matches, it’s just the way for you to be tricked into buying it at a higher price. They are liars and they just want to take your money. Also, the battery life on this Apple Watch is horrible. It’s supposed to last 18 hours. It barely even last seven. I can’t get through an entire days work without it turning off. Honestly, never buy from Best Buy.

    The watch was defective and unable to keep a charge. I was disappointed, as I drove 1.5 hours to purchase this watch. I was able to return it without issue.

    Worst watch I have ever owned.

    This is the worst watch I have ever owned. Battery drains completely within a few hours, requires charging several times a day. This is with no apps running, no workouts, looking at the watch perhaps six or seven times a day. Exhausted all troubleshooting methods, this is simply either defective by design, defective software, defective hardware... no idea. This is the last Apple product I will ever buy.

    The box arrived without a watch in it. Customer service has not refunded my money and I haven’t heard back from them. Be careful with a purchase from Best Buy. I returned the box with the band and charger cable in it and noted in a message to them that it appears tampered with. It had 2 labels

    My recent trade-in experience with Best Buy was disappointing. There's no direct customer service for this service, and the trade-in didn't complete successfully without any explanation. As a result, I've decided to return the item. Hope Best Buy improves their trade-in process and customer support.

    Don’t ever buy from Best Buy. They sent me a defective product. Then canceled my replacement and still haven’t issued a refund. I’m out $400 and don’t have a watch. I’ve been on the phone with them 5 times. No resolution just empty promises. Fun company.
