    My watch is awesome! I love that it syncs with all of my other Apple products. The best part is the activity tracker, which is what I bought it for. It is more accurate that other fitness trackers and keeps me motivated. It is nice to be able to check messages and phone calls without having to pull out my phone. I have wanted one for a long time and it is everything I thought it would be and more!

    From the sleek, sporty look to the nice functionality, I love my new Apple Watch. It makes it easy to answer texts and brief calls. It also makes it easy to keep up with e-mail, sports scores, and basic health info. I even like that it makes me stand once an hour! I wear it to the office and when I work out. I'm a watch guy, but my other watches (which I really like!) will hardly get worn any more.

    I think overall it is a really neat toy. I got it for my dad's birthday. He loves it. He uses it mostly for texts and calls both of which it does fine. The battery life is ok as long as you use it normally. I think if you are always clicking it and calling it will wear down, but we have gone over a day without charging it. I'm sure Apple will make the next model better, but overall not a bad start.

    I thought the novelty of this watch would go away shortly after purchase. This thought made me second guess purchasing it. I finally caved and bought it. Needless to say the novelty did not wear out. I love this watch more and more each day. Getting texts, phone calls and most importantly, ESPN updates right on my wrist is unbelievably awesome! Not to mention everything else that it does. Love it!

    I was hesitant to buy this product since it appeared most suitable for someone working a regular job like I used to. Even though I no longer worry about a lot of appointments, texts, and emails, the watch has proved very useful with health tracking, weather, other apps, and extension of my iPhone. It is also very comfortable to wear. The learning curve was not bad. I'm very happy with the purchase.

    I absolutely LOVE my Apple Watch!!!!!! My husband and I both have one & they are so much fun. It makes it easier when he texts me & I'm having a busy day at work, I can msg him back walking down the hallway without pulling out my phone (which isn't allowed). LOVE IT!!!!!!! The battery life is awesome & lasts all day & it was super easy to pair to my phone. Also loving the activity tracker on it.

    After a less than stellar experience with another smartwatch (had to return two different ones for the same issue; would not pair with phone and glitched a lot) I decided to give in and upgrade. Definitely the best choice; Apple watch works seamlessly with iPhones, no software issues and it is a good looking watch.

    The Apple watch is convenient, but certainly not a necessity. It allows you to keep your phone in your pocket when messages/notifications arrive. It can typically survive two days before it needs to be re-charged. I hope the next model will last at least one week between charges. It's convenient to have the weather, time, date, and appointments all on your wrist without turning your phone on.

    I usually wait to buy the gadgets that really look interesting to me until a couple of people I know get them so I can truly know if it's everything that is described in the commercials. No one that I knew well enough to really ask purchased the new Apple Watch that I really wanted, so I went ahead and purchased it. I don't regret it at all, I work in the medical field and am often in different units of hospitals. I was hopeful that this would be a great way for me to stay connected with my office in real time without having to step off of the units to check my phone, due to hospital policies that state no cell phones can be used in the units. The watch works perfectly and exceedes every expectation I had of it. I have several coworkers that have purchased the watch based on my experience. I don't regret buying it at all and it has been improved already, with the release of the new software.

    I'm a watch guy. And I love my iPhone. An Apple Watch seemed like the next logical purchase for me. The watch was very comfortable and I often forgot I was wearing it. The features were nice but I didn't use most of them. No one I knew well enough to care about had an Apple Watch also so I ended up returning it. Not that it was a bad product, I just have many more watches I like to wear more frequently and when I did go to wear it after some time the battery would be dead. (I did not think it would be wise to leave on the charger potentially for weeks)

    With anything, how you rate what you get depends on what you were looking for to start with. I wanted to use the activity application to motivate my self. For that it has worked very, very well. Additionally, this watch is full of features and it is highly customize-able to suit your personal taste. There are a ton of features available right on your wrist, without needing to touch your phone.

    It is simply - Awesome. So good - we bought a second one for my husband.. I had no idea it would become such a great tool to use. I can check my email and messages on the go (or in a meeting) without needing to check my phone. I programmed my answers so that I can get work done - on the run. I am still discovering all the things it can do and can control. (Even sending each other heartbeats!)

    For starters I was very skeptical about getting the Apple Watch. I started off with a Fitbit for a long while then my wife decided on the Apple Watch. I said sure let's get them. It took a little while to get used to all the functions it has and what not but after figuring it out I'm glad we decided to get them. The only downside of it is that the battery basically only lasts for the day then you have to recharge it. Thankfully it's very easy to charge. All you have to do is set it on the charger. Other than the short battery life I'm very pleased with our purchase!

    I had wanted an Apple Watch ever since they came out but couldn't decide which one I wanted or how much I wanted to pay. When Best Buy put these on sale, I just got the least expensive one and I'm elated! The added convenience for reading text messages and checking the weather is phenomenal and the Health Watch and Excercise apps really help me gauge how I plan my workouts. Great product!

    Most people that were early adopters thought this product was just a toy. Boy were they wrong! Love responding to texts in a snap without reaching for a phone. Saved myself buying a Fitbit as this does that too! Having boarding passes and rewards cards on my watch makes me so much more organized and on sale this item was a steal! And sometimes when answering a call I feel like Dick Tracey!

    I have never used a fitness tracker and haven't wore a watch for years so I was worried I may not like the Apple Watch. I made the transisition to wearing a watch very easily. I use a laptop and the leather band doesn't scratch the computer and feels nice on my wrist. The watch functions are great, I like getting indiscreet notifications and updates from some apps but overall it hasn't been a life changer for me at all. I like using it on my runs and hope the next version has a duilt in gps so I don't have to carry my iPhone along on the runs.

    Purchased this for my son for Xmas . He loves it, took only seconds to sync up with his iPhone. I was pleasantly surprised of the price, that was a added bonus since I had already purchased another one from a different store and it cost way more but came with an extra watch band, but I still returned. He recently got him another band. He hasn't had any issues with it, he just loves it!!!

    The capabilities of this watch are like never-ending, but the more apps are running the more it will consume from your battery. In order to increase the battery life you have to tweak the settings and turn off some apps. It’s light, comfortable, very good quality belt, and it is easy to set!!!
