    Pretty color, takes some getting used to.

    First, the actual color of the watch band is very close to the color on the sides of the box. The front of the box photo is a bit darker. Color is light lavender. The loop end of the one side stays against your skin. The snap side slides over the loop and then under the loop strap. It took some getting used to before I could put it on easily in the morning. One tip, if your hand is small enough. When you remove the watch, do not completely remove the snap side. Snap it in the last hole and then slide your hand out. Repeat in the morning in reverse, then unsnap and move the snap into it's correct position. Doing this prevents fussing with the snap and trying to get it through the loop every morning. Overall, I am satisfied with this band. It's as comfortable to wear as the standard Apple watch band, the color is nice and it goes well with the gold bezel of the Apple watch series 4.

    At the first quick look and touch you wouldn't know it is not the Apple brand. I am very happy with it, but have two gripes with it. 1. Material - only one difference between this brand and apple that I can tell is that the original is consistently easy to clean with just plain water. This brand you need to use a little soap with the water. I think the materials pores might be slightly larger and therefore traps dirt easier. Unless you are "playing" in dirt a lot, I don't think you would really notice it. 2. Design - This one annoys me a quiet a bit. Because the pin for closing the band is on the opposite side from where the loop is, it is either difficult to adjust for tighTness (pin pointing up), or it doesn't feel as secure as the original band (pin pointing down). The band popped open on me once (pin pointing down) and the watch almost fell to the ground, I cough it at the last second. I don't know how to better describe it without writing a book. I suggest you take a look at the pictures or better yet, try them actually on your wrist so you can see and feel right away the difference that I am trying to describe. I do love it that the small NEXT band is a little longer than the small Apple band.

    I love the color and the fit, but it can easily be unlocked even in small movements I make. I got it on sale so I wasn't hurt too much, but still this product can improve!

    I was skeptical of this band’s quality and it’s texture. I’ve gotten a few off-brand sports bands in the past that just felt weird and weren’t worth the savings but this one was actually pretty close to Apple’s! Only thing I didn’t like was the loop on the band. It made it difficult to put on & took some getting used to because it felt a little bulky on my wrist at first.

    I love the band once you get used it it. I love the color but they way you put it on takes some practice. You have to put the strap in under the other part of the band - so it takes practice to put it on- but I figured it out. Just a strange design.

    Very lightweight and good quality but like other reviewers noted, this band is really difficult to put on even using both hands. That aside, this is a good band to add to your apple watch replacement band collection.

    Awkwardly difficult clasp system

    While the strap initially looks quite nice, there is a film that is already peeling off of the surface of the strap. At first I thought I had gotten some sort of sticky substance on the band, so I took a rag to wipe it off. I soon realized it is actually a film that is coming off the band. Also, I'm finally getting used to putting on this strap after several weeks of use. It was very difficult to connect the two sides of the strap using one hand. I would not recommend this strap.

    This is a cool color for my Apple Watch. Easy to change out from my normal band. Easy to put on, though it's a bit different from the Apple band that comes with the watch. I use it in the pool and on walks and for daytime and evening too! It is truly a sports band. I love it!

    Upon putting this in my watch I was very disappointed with the quality. Very weird and hard to put on. Not even worth the $14. Then upon trying to remove it would NOT come out of my watch. Tried so hard to get one half out and the strap BROKE. leaving behind the connectors in my brand new watch. Not even trying to remove the other side. Very mad and now have to find a place to take the other half out without ruining the watch. Would give this zero stars if I could.

    There's nothing wrong with this band. It's super soft and comfortable, it's a deep jet black, and looks good with the Watch. The problem is that the loop side flairs out too much, and the the post side (unlike the Apple bands, they are not on the same side) doesn't tuck into the other side, making it possible for the band to catch on something and come undone. Like I said, there's nothing actually wrong with it, there's just not enough right with it. But if you just need a cheap alternative to your Apple band, it's okay.

    Nice light pink color, comfortable fit, easy to install into watch but with a more economical price. I have just about every color in this band. And although I haven’t had it long, I was referred to these NEXT bands by family members that have been using them for a while.
