    I love this watch. other than the battery life, it is easy to used and a great size. The battery lasts about 1 day so if you forget to charge it after the day, there goes you watch for the next day.

    I'm happy with the size of this watch for my wife as the bigger watches just look too big on her wrist. There are lots of features and she is still trying to learn how to use all of them.

    I used to think smart watches were silly and unnecessary, but a co-worker talked me into getting the Apple watch and I'm so glad I did! I wanted it to help me move more and it definitely has done that. The Activity app motivates me to achieve my daily goals. I also love being able to send and receive texts on the watch - there are some preset responses to save time - I can send a quick "on my way" text in 4 clicks total. Also, I have mine setup to receive work emails - it's just so convenient to read email on the watch (when I'm not at my desk) as opposed to digging out my iphone. I really love my Apple watch!

    This is the first smart watch that I've owned. It pairs easily with my iPhone, and allows me to easily answer texts and calls even when my phone is in the other room.

    I love my Apple Watch so much and could never see myself owning another watch. For the price that I got it at was an amazing deal as well. Best Buy is the best place to buy Apple products and for anyone iPhone owner this watch is a great addition. Not only do you get notifications as you would on an iPhone but the fitness capabilities are up to par with other fitness wearables. If you're still on the fence about getting an Apple Watch try one out and see how much it changes the way you interact with your phone and with tech in general.

    I ordered this watch when it became available and I have to say the shipping was fast! I love my watch. It's a perfect size for my wrist. The band is what I was wanting, so kudos Apple. I'm not going to lie, it was very hard to give up my fitbit charge hr, I wore it all the time. I wear this all the time except when I do yard work and sleep. I do wish that Apple had a community where apple watchers could compete amongst each other. That's what I miss the most. However, fitbit just came out with Mobiletrak for non-fitbit users but I am not going to carry my phone around. Maybe with the next release, Apple will come out with something. Other than that, I love all the features it has. The only downside is when you open the activity or any other item (weather, calendar, etc) by tapping once, it wont let you go back to the previous screen. You either have to wait till the screen turns blank or hit the side to take you back to the clock face. It's a bit annoying. I totally recommend the watch though!!!!

    I really like the watch for the purpose I bought it for which was strictly to use in sync with my Iphone 5 as well as count my steps and monitor my sleep activity. It does this great and it's great to have. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is battery life. After experimenting I discovered that I have to turn just about every other app off except the watch face itself to get a decent days use out of it. Other than that, this watch was easy to sync with my phoe and the screen is big enough for me to select the apps on the screen. Great phone overall.

    My wife purchased this watch and is finding that it really has many useful functions such as text notifications and the ability to answer back directly from the watch. She says she likes the fact that you can put it in silent mode so that it will just vibrate when she receives a text and won't disturb anyone else. This feature alone comes in very handy as her watch is always with her although the phone may not be close enough to hear.

    I had been looking at the Apple Watch for a while, but when Best Buy put it on sale, I knew it was time to get one. I love how I don't have to chase my phone down to turn off notifications. I'm a teacher so I have lots of them set. I like how you can see who is texting or calling and accept it for those important ones or dismiss for "junk."

    I love my Apple Watch. Just like when I originally got an iPhone years ago, I have used my Watch more than I thought I would. From quick text replies to doodles to actually using it for phone calls. Some just see it as a trendy item that people get to look cool. It does look cool, by the way. It is, however, very useful. Definitely a great buy. Only thing I didn't like was the band it came with but that was easily remedied.

    the apple features are great....getting messages, using it for directions but the heart rate monitor and distance monitors seem to be off. It won't take my heart rate if I am active or moving, which is the main reason I got it. The other features that are similar to the iphones are great. It does not stay charged long and that is a huge weakness. I have to charge it often, way more than my fitbit or I anticipated.

    Love my smart watch. I started with another brand of fitness watch, however it did not fit many of my requirements. This does. Very happy. My only complaint is I wish they had the option of picking the band you would like to have versus buying the basic nylon and getting the loop at a much more additional cost.

    This is a great watch for those that are looking to keep track of their life without the need to look at their phone. I like that I am able to respond to text messages, see my calendar appts, and track my fitness. There are plenty of other uses but those are my regular daily uses.

    For females and small petite arms fits perfect and easy to set up. The band is actually pretty cool and comfortable. I would recommend this for smaller arms and wrist. Overall cool watch but cannot give 5 stars due to not being water proof and you have to make sure you don't forget about this or you'll end up having to buy another one :P
