Too much effort to support the product
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not exactly plug and play: effort required to merge with IPhone, disabled ringing of phone, contacts and messaging less than previousl history with Apple products.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendEasily breaks down, very flimsy, starts hurting
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is very low quality. It broke and the metal started peeling off within a month of two of my using it. Now every time I wear the band, my wrists get scratched and start bleeding. This is unacceptable. It's also way too long/big for my wrist, it needs to be shorter.

Would be nice if I actually had it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A store associate ordered this band online for me on 1/19 as it wasn’t in stock in the store. As of 2/16 it’s been 4 weeks and tracking shows that UPS hasn’t received it for shipping yet, so I’m still waiting for it.

Doesn’t Fit
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This band is terrible. Doesn’t lock into place on an Apple Watch and magnet doesn’t work. I returned it

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBought for small wrists; not worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have small wrists and the bands that come with the Apple Watch weren't cutting it for me. So I bought this thinking I could tighten it better, and the magnetism is weak. I even had to fold the magnetic part in because the strap was too long. Slips off and loosens whenever I'm actively moving my wrists. Still continuing my search for a reliable Apple Watch band that will stay tight and sturdy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendMagnet sticks to metal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have to be careful since the magnet sticks to everything you get close to. Also the band is short for those with large wrists. Ended up returning the product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAverage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy with the purchase and when open the box, beat buy return window was over, wasted money on this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Magnet

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this a week ago and the magnet broke off the end. Would not recommend buying it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Apple Watch band
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This watch band is good, but I’m returning it as it keeps snagging on my shirts...not worth it to me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBand was nice but it’s a hair snagger...
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice band, more trendy but if you have Bigfoot hairy arms be warned this band does tend to snag hair from time to time
I would recommend this to a friendWay too small
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to be good quality but my husband can't even get it on. He has average wrists and the Apple band fits just fine while this one is way too small.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Considering that the watch has to be taken out at least every 72 hours, this band was not an easy band to take off or even put back on.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt’s ok,
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I remember buying this a while back, returned it after a few days because it kept pinching me.
