The Apple Watch is amazing! The only thing I wish I could do is physically text from it. But then again it's s great tool to keep you notified and also helps with fitness and reminders! I recommend 100%

I love this watch. I get a lot of compliments on it. It's very useful if you use your iPhone for messages and calendars etc. If you don't take advantage of the iPhone's tools then it won't be useful.

I use the apple watch as a watch and especially like all the alarms I can use. I also use it to manage emergency text messages and phone calls from family members. My iPhone is always on vibrate and in my purse or coat pocket! I was always missing important reminders, text messages, alarms and voice mails. Having the watch helps me to keep better track of all the things I should be using my smart phone for : )
I also use the watch as an alarm clock - nightstand mode while charging.
Oh and I admit being able to start my SUV with the Drone-mobile application from the watch is a really nice feature!
The more time I spend wearing it the more things I start to realize I can utilize. I really did not expect to use as many features as I do. I have not worn a watch in so long at first it was awkward for me. But the sport band is very comfortable and after a while I forget I was even wearing the watch and I have the 42mm.

Watch is a great compliment to the iPhone. It helps me to keep messages when I'm away from my phone stationed at my desk. Or in the kitchen when my phone is charging in the bedroom. Great how you can use most of the phone apps on the watch. Receiving and responding to messages keeps me from pulling out my phone when it's difficult to get to. Gave it 4 stars because I think it's still a bit pricey. Almost as much as the actual phone. Also, felt that it could've been made more on a watch feel (Moto 360) than a device on your wrist. I am more of a traditional watch kind of person. If they could combine the two, potentially the best watch on the market! But, we'll see.
I'll say do your research before making a purchase of this price. Not that there's anything wrong, I just usually do it before making purchases. Consider how your daily activity is!
Don't think it's a must have, but a great compliment to the phone. Kind of like; a car is a must, but the chrome rims are a nice compliment.

Honestly, I was completely against it at first. But, you just have to use it and you'll enjoy the benefits more and more each day. My only complaint (and this isn't something Apple can really fix quickly) is that it doesn't have it's own GPS capable device inside the watch. But oh well, that will be a few years in technology i'm sure.

This is another product put out by Apple that is easy to use. It is fashionable, you can change the bands depending on your look or mood. For the person on the go it just makes sense.

Pros:
1. I really find it convenient to make/receive calls and check notifications on my watch when my phone is in my pocket; saves me from having to pull out my phone.
2. Great remote for controlling my phone when playing music.
3. When you can't find your phone but you know it's close by you can ping your phone so it plays an audible sound.
Cons:
1. Not a fan of the short battery life but I have no issue charging it at night since I don't wear my watch to bed.
2. Dependency to the phone.
3. Can't install custom watch faces.
If you've invested in the Apple ecosystem this would be a great addition. No regrets. Love the watch.

This watch is great. It fits nicely and is very comfortable. It tells me everything I need to know and the fitness tracker has been pushing me to exceed my last weeks goals. It looks nice. I like the color I chose, not just black and I bought a protective trim that will help keep it safe. The watch face I am using is simple but the 4 corners have quick glances of everything I want to see at a glance. I have a Pebble that is attached to my Samsung phone but I bought this one to connect to my work iPhone. The watch is so nice I will be switching my personal phone to an iPhone when I get home.

Awesome watch for a woman

This watch is great for a woman. The only reason it received four stars out of five on my review is because I do not believe the face or the design of the watch is one that I would feel comfortable with as a man. Do you watch is not large enough for me. I have a difficult time navigating through the many features on this watch because I have manly hands. Most women have slender fingers and would probably find it quite easy to navigate through the many applications on the watch. I'm hoping that Apple will come out with a man's watch soon. I don't need all the apps on there. It's a watch after all. Being able to connect wirelessly through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi with my phone so I can listen to music on my wireless headphones is a bonus but really not something that I have to have. In order for this to be a man's watch I would recommend a wider band and larger face.

I really like the Apple Watch, it's quality is far above those other wearables I tried. I use it for voice and text notifications more than any other functions. I even think access to the weather forecast is so much easier on the Apple Watch compared to the iPhone. I used to be an android user, and always had the weather at my fingertips. I lost access when I moved to iOS, however the watch has brought access to the weather back to me and much more simply. I also really like how my children are able to use my phone while driving in the car and I can still make or receive phone calls. I'm excited for the second generation watch, because I think it really is going to add some of those critical functions that this one is missing. I should be able to Facetime, and jog with out the phone and still be able to use GPS and cellular features.

I am an Apple Girl, living in an Apple world!!! So when the Apple watch came out I had to have one but as with all Apple products the price will make you take a step back. I am a believer in you get what you pay for. But when Best Buy put this watch on sale my antenna went up really high. Ok what does best buy know? Why on sale now? I guess it is time for a new version but I don't care I am buying this watch for myself for Christmas. And that I did. I have not put it down yet, except to charge it at night but a full charge has lasted an entire day so I am fine. It is the best add on to my Apple product collection(yes I use them all and never an issue). It is fun to use, I don't have to pull my phone out every time something happens on it I can just look at my watch, answer text messages, answer calls,reply to iMessage, review daily calendar events, check flights and flight status, check in for flights, and make purchases all from my watch. I love this iWatch and it will not disappoint.
I see people talking about breaking it or shattering the face. I am trying to understand what people are doing with this watch that it is falling to the ground or getting run over. As with any great time piece (I own several Tag Heuer and Invicta watches) I take great care of them and have no intentions on dropping it on the ground or throwing it across the room (this confuses me). I take care of all my products. And you should too. Also Apple is very good at linking their products with manufacturers items to protect electronic items if they need to be protected. Apple is not selling a watch guard so I guess they didn't think that people would be just dropping watches and breaking them. It is a fine time piece take care of it as such.
Although I purchased the aluminum gold and navy blue band I have already changed the band to match my mood for the day. I love that I can change the band with the click of a button. My next purchase will be the stainless steel silver with the Loop band as my dressy watch. LOL
If you are thinking about this iWatch I suggest you not hesitate too much longer since best buy has this great deal. I got the 42mm watch and applecare+ plus tax for less than the regular price of the watch alone. You can not beat that offer. Get it play with it and use it, but take care of it it is a fine timepiece and you will not be disappointed.

I was quite skeptical about the Apple Watch, and put of purchasing one for several months. I finally broke down and purchased the watch about 2 months ago and timekeeping hasn't been the same. The screen is simple to read, with the capacity to notify you of phisical activity goals, phone calls, text messages and email, both secure (for those of us living in an office), and general. In addition, this watch extends many apps from your iPhone, including translation apps, mileage maps, activity maps, your camera, music, and much more. The watch is also very water resistant. I have worn mine in the shower each day, without a hitch, other than missing my active pulse with the watch wet. Overall, this is an excellent wearable computer watch, and my life functions differently with it on my wrist each day.

I hadn't worn a watch in years, but I was intrigued by the concept of the Apple Watch. It's easy to set up, the watch faces that come pre-loaded are fairly customizable, and the stock band is pretty comfortable. I keep my phone in my pocket most of the time, so it's convenient to get email/text notifications on my wrist. My only complaint is the volume level is pretty low when trying to make phone calls, but I'm not sure how much louder it could be considering the size. Overall, I've been really enjoying it.
