    I was very hesitant to purchase the Apple watch for my son because he had no interest in it and he didn't understand why anyone would want it. After playing with it for about an hour, he was totally excited about and was so glad that I had purchased it for him. Thank you Best Buy guys for suggesting and showing me everything it could do and you were right, he loves it!!

    I never thought I would buy the APPLE WATCH but after I purchased one for my daughter at Christmas I changed my mind. The APPLE WATCH works great when you are in meeting and can't look at your phone. It's easy to quickly answer a text without pulling out your phone. The heart rate monitor is great too. The only draw back is the charger is different from my IPHONE.

    A little expensive, but a great product. I was tired of constantly getting my phone out of my pocket, and was always missing calls and texts since I keep my phone on vibrate. Not anymore, now the quiet tap on the wrist keeps me informed of everything that I want to know. Love being able to change music on my phone from the watch, and apple pay is great with the watch.

    I know a lot of people have mixed feeling on a smart watch. I will say, I have really enjoyed mine. I actually use it as an alarm, since the haptic touch can gently wake you each morning. That has been a lot better than waking up to an annoying sound! I also really use the activity/health feature on it. Helps me stay on track for exercise!

    I do like the apple watch, however i had to return do to one problem. I feel paying $350+ for an accessory that pairs with your smartphone should allow you a little more freedom. I bought the watch, and took it home to discover my phone wasn't updated enough to use it. I didn't think that was right of apple to do. It is fully functional and a great "sidekick" for your daily use though. With other brands competing in the market i definitely wouldn't shy away from browsing. This watch is a bit pricey for an accessory.

    Been waiting for these to go on sale which they did so I bought one for my wife and myself. Overall a good tool but one that you definitely have to get accustomed too. The only downsize I have run into is that it drains my battery on my phone very rapidly that I have to charge twice a day now. I travel quite a bit via airlines so I had to buy a bring along battery to keep my phone charged. As my comfort factor grows, I'm sure I will learn more of the functions on it. It is very comfortable and I wear it daily.

    I bought this as a gift and my husband wears it all the time. He loves the watch, he can send messages, make calls, check the news, get his message updates even when he's at the office and doesn't always have his phone on him. The health app even motivates him to remember to meet his daily workout goals. It's great! I recommend it to all our friends and family :)

    I have enjoyed my apple watch! I waited a year to purchase it when Best Buy offered a 100 dollar discount. I love being able to see the time, weather, date, messages on my wrist and utilize many of apps. The only draw back is having to charge the battery every night and it being dependent upon the i phone for most of the functions. I do enjoy the sports watch fitness features for gym and outdoor exercise. The band has a great feel and it has a light feel on your wrist. Im glad i finally made the purchase!

    This is a snazzy gadget. I will have to go to apple school to benefit from the full capabilities . It's self explanatory enough, but it probably does way more than I have figured out on my own. Battery is about 24 hours, but it charges fast and is magnetic on the back so you don't have to plug it in. Email, text, Twitter are all at a glance. I wish it did sleep along with steps and stuff, but I don't think it does. I like it but I don't love it because of the battery life and the sleep/fitness limitations.

    I initially was torn between the Applewatch and a Fitbit but chose the Applewatch for its additional features. I also really like how many third party apps have now been designed to work with the watch. I have found the watch to be very user friendly and it didn't take long to get the hang of it. I have also found the workout feature to be helpful and accurate.

    I am a big Apple device fan, but I waited on a watch till Best Buy offered them at $100 off the Apple price. Even then I think they are pretty expensive. I don't use most of the features but I do like being able to change the face of the watch easily to customize the look. I have changed it a couple of times since Christmas, and it freshens up the experience. My wife and I got watches for each other for Christmas, and we have been using them as fitness trackers. Since I haven't used anyone else fitness tracker, I don't know if the drawbacks are universal or just with this device. It doesn't seem particularly accurate, my wife and I will go on the same walk and hers will show the distance as 2.1 miles and mine will show it as 1.7 miles. But in the end, it is more important that I am tracking something, rather than not tracking at all. The battery life is good. By good, I mean that I charge it at night and it still has over half of it's battery available. It do like being able to read a text without pulling out the phone. Sending a text from the watch is pretty easy as well. Siri dictation seems to work pretty well on the watch, although I don't seem to be able to change something if she messes up, So I usually stick with the canned responses the watch offered (Yes no, call you later etc...) or pull out my phone if I want to give a longer response. The only annoying thing I have noticed it when using the phone as a GPS. The watch buzzes my wrist to notify me that it is time to turn. The first time it did that I didn't expect it, and pulled over after the turn to figure out what was happening. I can imagine someone trying to look at their watch as thy are getting ready to turn and having an accident! I think I could turn that feature off, but now that I expect it, I just take the vibration as the last hint that it is time to turn. The notices seem to disappear on their own, since I never have to clear them later. Overall, it is a good device and I am glad that I have it. I don't think this is the 'watch for the rest of us'.

    I did look and read the reviews online, after looking all around the price and since Best Buy has offer a $100 discount on all Apple Watch I went to the store to look at it. The next day I ordered online and went to pick up in store. So far so good I loved it. Easy to set up from my IPhone 6. It's been a month now I have it and I don't regret to purchase it.

    I bought this watch for my husband, who loves it. By purchasing an additional (leather) watchband, this watch is very versatile. Can be used during the sweatiest of workouts, and also worn to work or to a party. Simply changing the band, which is very easy to do, gives you an all new look. The Apple watch has all kids of different functionalities. Love this!

    i am so glad I took the chance on this watch. Wow I use its functions all day, Super nice device. I charge it on my drive to work and back so I can wear it all night in order to track my sleep. I have noticed that during the night I must have some stress dreams or fun dreams I don't know which, my pulse elivates substantially for some periods. Great product!!!

    It is not December 2017 and I still really enjoy having my gen 1 apple watch- I wasn't sure if I really needed it to begin with but I was in the market at the time for a good fitness tracker. I found it was great for work (physical therapy) and tracks my activity well. Taking calls and texting from it are great features as well!

    If you love your iphone you will love your apple watch. I never wore a watch before so just having one is a new experiance for me. I love the texting feature and having siri on your wrist is incredibly useful when your busy and dont wont to pull your phone out. Battery has lasted all day everyday since ive had it but you do have to charge it every night.
