    No complaints so far. I’ve had this watch for about a month and love the health stats and sleep tracker. Easy to change settings and set to silent when I’m in meetings. Connected to my iPhone seamlessly. I like the size and style. I feel the battery is good for having all the features on and it charges quickly.

    The Apple Watch Series 9 (41mm) is a compact powerhouse, combining sleek design with enhanced functionality. Its faster processor makes navigating apps and tracking health metrics smoother than ever. The always-on Retina display is bright and clear, and the improved battery life is a plus. With features like advanced health tracking, customizable watch faces, and seamless integration with other Apple devices, it’s a top choice for anyone looking to stay connected and active.

    Wasn’t sure at first or not whether I wanted to get this watch. When I got it I was glad that I did. If I’m not close to my cell phone, I don’t have to run to it anymore to answer a phone call. It’s also easier to reply to a text message if I’m not near my phone. It’s a bit difficult to type it, so I use the microphone. I like how I can keep track of how much I’ve exercised and how many steps I’ve gotten in for the day. I purchased the midnight color, and went on Amazon and got a nice dark blue bumper to put over the watch as I found myself, bumping it into things quite a bit.

    An essential for a busy schedule

    This was a birthday gift for my lady. She absolutely loves it and still has no issues. She uses this for work to stay on schedule with events and meeting with clients, and the features allow her to manage alarms and contacts without having to pull out her phone, as well as tracks her health. The battery also lasts a couple to a few days before it’s time to charge again, and that is without using low battery mode. She said it is essential for her job and she sees the difference. 10/10.

    Liking how vibrant the screen is over my old watch and how much better battery life has been (I’ve had my old series 6 for 2 years with 80% capacity though so take that with a grain of salt). I prefer the (what feels like) smoother edges and more sleek look than my series 6. The brightness of the AOD on wrist down is enough that multiple strangers have commented on my watch faces or friends have notice how often I switch them out versus my other watch which stands other can see it better.

    Don’t wait if you want the oxygen sensor

    It’s great! Just like my previous Apple Watch. If you have an iPhone, and have set everything up, then the Apple Watch will be the perfect extension to the phone. They work seamlessly together and the watch adds lots of functionality that is very convenient. I love checking the weather and other pertinent information for my day, right there. Being able to ping the phone has changed my life - from always losing it and leaving it places, to now pinging it however times I need to track down whatever room it’s been left in. I like tracking things, especially workouts. I used to have Garmin but this does everything I need. Paired with the Health app on the phone you can track so much; weight, heart rate, activity trends (are you getting more, same, or is active), are you standing enough during the day, women’s cycle, resting energy/calorie burn, steps, HRV… I mean the things you’re able to track all while it works well with your phone. If you haven’t heard, Apple has been sued and has been ordered to remove the blood oxygen sensor (for infringement) from their watches. HOWEVER, retailers such as Best Buy can sell the inventory they already have. I lucked out and got the last small Starlight GPS model with blood oxygen but the other colors likely still have it. So if that’s important to you, GET IT NOW! Don’t wait. Otherwise you’ll be hard pressed to find it, and likely will have to purchase a refurbished older model instead.

    I upgraded from the SE1 to the S9 and I’m so incredibly glad that I did. Besides the screen size difference, the S9 offers so much to its user. The double tap feature is such a cool feature and really helps when I can’t use my other hand. The battery life is phenomenal and lasts several days before I need to charge it again. I could go on but I don’t want to ramble. Do purchase if you’re thinking of buying/upgrading.

    Gifting the Apple Watch Series 9 to my wife turned out to be a delightful surprise that extended beyond the initial unboxing. The 41mm pink aluminum case with the light pink sport band complements her style with its sophisticated yet fun aesthetic. This smartwatch does more than just tell time; it's a comprehensive health and wellness companion. She’s been able to track her daily activities with precision, and the insights into her health metrics have been eye-opening. The watch motivates her to stay active, and she loves how it reminds her to stand and move around throughout the day. The convenience of GPS connectivity ensures that she stays in the loop even when her phone isn’t around, a feature that’s been particularly useful during her morning jogs. The battery life is robust, handling her long days without needing a mid-day charge. Notifications and quick replies have been a game-changer for her busy routine, keeping her connected effortlessly. Overall, the Apple Watch Series 9 has been an invaluable accessory for my wife, offering both functionality and flair.

    the Apple Watch Series 9 is very easy to use. The layout, settings, and interface are all very familiar and intuitive for an iPhone user like myself. The always-on display and narrow frame make it easy to read information and swipe through notifications, I recommend this purchase

    Good for tracking steps, heart rate, and temp

    I got this Apple Watch to track things like steps, heart rate, and body temperature for cycle tracking. It’s convenient to have for notifications since I’m a teacher, and our school uses apps like GroupMe for communication. It’s nice to not have my phone on me when I’m up from my desk teaching. The battery life isn’t great if you keep the screen on; I have to charge it every night in order to sleep with it on (to track my temps). If you turn that feature off where the screen is only on when you tap it, I’ve heard that helps the battery life though. I just put it in the charger when I’m getting ready for bed and watching tv before I fall asleep, and that does the trick. I put a screen protectors on it as soon as I got it because I’m clumsy lol and it’s held up nicely for the 12+ months I’ve been using it. Sometimes I’ll notice notifications coming in late or showing up with the wrong time. I just restart the watch and/or check for software updates.

    I LOVE my new apple watch, and I was thrilled my local Best Buy had the exact model/color/size I wanted in stock. Best Buy was super helpful with deciding between different series, and made the whole process super simple! I am staying on track with the step/activity tracking, find it easier to get dressed in the morning since I just look at my wrist to see the weather, and having reminders/alerts pop up is AWESOME. So glad I upgraded finally from my old series 2. The new model is WORTH IT. (Also the battery lasts longer than Apple claims, which was a nice surprise)!

    The watch itself has so many features which make day to day living so much easier, it helps me stay in touch with my family whenever I am busy and it motivates me to stay active every single day. It helps me stay organized with day to day tasks and helps me stay on track which what I need to get done, The overall service of receiving the watch was 5/5 stars, I had multiple associates help me from telling me the different features of the watch, to helping me apply for the credit card and explaining to be the different benefits along with helping me find a plan which will best benifit me.

    This is a great watch. I had the 8 and was having some issues with it. So with such a great deal on the 9 during Christmas, I went ahead and purchased it. It is absolutely perfect with no issues whatsoever. The battery seems to be much better than the 8 was. When I need the GPS, of course, the watch also gives directions. It does not wear down as fast as the 8 did. I enjoy the different faces. I highly recommend this watch. Thank you.
