    Great Smartwatch

    I wasn't going to buy this 1st generation watch, I usually wait for the second generation of any new product. Only then, if I'm still interested enough, will I take the plunge. The more I looked into the Apple Watch the more really useful it seemed that it might be. So I decided to buy one, keep it for one week and then decide. Today I've had the watch for 5 days and I know that I won't be returning it. I've been surprised at how helpful its notifications are and I didn't expect that I'd be picking my phone up so much less than I used to need to. It does so many "little" things right... Apple's usual top quality is evident in everything about this little device.

    Being the Apple product fanatic I am, I finally took the plunge and picked up my Apple watch. I am sorry I waited so long! It is amazing! Very versatile for any situation. The band looks pretty snazzy, but is not pretentious in a work or play environment. Plus, switching the bands is childs play! The watch itself does everything I wanted and more. I was tired of always having to pull my phone out to see what time it was, so there's one check marked. Then also, now I don't have to pull my phone out in awkward situations to see who is texting or messaging me. Plus, I can also see who is calling to determine if I need to take that call right away, or can send it to voice mail, all without pulling my phone out! It tracks my daily steps and calories pretty well, although I must say I haven't checked it against any other pedometer as of yet. The heart beat function is pretty nice, I can tell when I'm a bit more riled than I need to be and tell my self to breathe a bit slower and calm myself. Not so good for phone calls, the sound is tinny thru the watch, but maybe okay in a pinch. Overall, I'd highly recommend it to anyone to extend the capabilities of their iPhone!

    There are many thing to love of this watch. It's sleek, it's touchscreen, it durable. The downsides I have found is that the battery life is not that great, would love to have more watch face options and the notifications only work if your phone is locked so if you are a multitasker this is not the watch for you because I miss a lot of messages compared to the pebble I used to have. Overall it's a nice watch, just would be nice to have a few updates to the utility of it.

    Apple Watch 42mm Milanese Loop

    Received this as a birthday present from family. They got a good deal since Christmas season was in full swing and got $100 off retail. They also took advantage of the financing option (18 months with no interest). When the Watch was first announced, I was skeptical about its productivity and whether I would use it. I have owned watches in the past but nothing that was the value of this watch. After synchronizing the watch with the iPhone (which was easy), I have enjoyed having this gadget on my wrist. It was also easy to customize the display and the options as well as apps. I like the ease of checking my messages and using Siri to respond (very few mistakes like I said quart and it popped up court and has around a 98% accuracy), seeing who is emailing me, and getting the push notifications from my favorite apps. I have used it as a Bluetooth for my phone calls, but it’s a bit awkward with the watch in your face- mainly when listening to the other person it is harder to hear when there is lots of background noise. There is a Find My Phone feature that is nice when I forget where I laid down my iPhone in the house. Overall, what I like about it best is when I am less dependent on the iPhone when it beeps or rings and not having to pull it out of my pocket or holster. I can be discrete yet have a classy look at the same time. I have bought a charging stand and another watch band. Cost is minimal but gives you more looks to choose from.

    I was a bit skeptical. But I bought the watch knowing that if I didn't like it I would have returned it. I spend the extra money for the stainless steel watch band and I am glad I did. The band is awesome and easy to attach. It has a magnet attachment. The watch has awesome functions and pairs seamlessly with the IPhone. Great for exercising. My only complaint is that it is not waterproof.

    Sharp Looking Device and Great Fitness Tracker

    I love Apple products and was in the market for a fitness tracker. I have customized the watch well and only see information that is important to me. I really enjoy glancing at my calendar and messages that come in. I am very happy with the fitness tracking (should be using that more). I am looking forward to more apps in the future. On the negative side it has added another level of connection to technology. It is also another cord that you may need pack when traveling cause it will need some charging most nights.

    Great watch, so many things that you can do it with it. There are so many applications that you can download for it. The battery life is ok depends on how much you use it. I have to charge it every night like a phone. But overall a great product. Would recommend to any Apple fanatic. The price is much cheaper than when they initially came out.

    I purchased the Apple Watch thinking that I would likely use the Best Buy 15 day return policy. Never did I expect that I would use it's features as much as I do. As my business requires me to meet with clients, I can easily keep track of emails, text messages, the time and my next meeting all with a glance at the watch. What a great way to stay connected to what is happening throughout my workday without appearing to be inconsiderate to my clients by checking my phone every few minutes. It just appears that I am checking the time. I use it to control my apple tv, track my fitness, check the weather and so many more things. It really is a convenience to not dig for my iPhone everytime i get a notification. The easy to change bands are great too. I have rubber ones for workouts, leather and stainless ones for work and dress occasions. Takes less than a minute to change. Needless to say, I did not return it. This is definitely not an item that anyone needs...but is one that I now choose not to live without.

    Makes my life easier and keeps you from reaching in pocket. It is so convenient if you don't have the time to look at every message. Super convenient. I recommend to all those with iphones. It is a must have. Expensive but well worth when you realise the time you are saving and it looks amazing.

    The Apple Watch is great and WatchOS 2 is a wonderful improvement. The battery life is not great but I easily get 2 days out of it before it dings that I have to charge it. When it needs charging only 30 minutes is needed for a full days charge. The usefulness is understated in most reviews but I love that i don't have to look like a jerk pulling out my phone for notifications during meetings. The range on the iPhone pairing is pretty nice too and regularly longer than the 33ft Bluetooth 3 offered. I get messages leaving my phone in my office and going down the hall. Overall a great product and i'm excited to see what they will add in functionality down the road.

    I purchased this Apple Watch as a gift for someone. Ironically, I was gifted the same watch just in the alternate size. I have a lot of apple products, so it was fun getting the latest. I haven't spent a lot of time using it, so I'm still learning about the features. It's nice to wear it through the the day to track my fitness goals and get notifications in the moment rather than going back to my office to check my phone.

    For starters--my new Apple Watch is a great conversational piece. Want to talk to a stranger and can't think of an appropriate "Hello" line, switch to the Mickey Face, and watch them smile! Feeling bored and need a lift, switch to the Solar Panel and watch the sun rise.... All the basics of a watch and more--time, date, temperature, plus ... The World in the Palm of your hand. Think of anything, and like "I Dream of Jeannie", Siri pops on the screen at your command .... Emails, text notes, phone calls, music, photographs, GPS ... "Are you kidding me?" I'm a pilot and have a Breitling that sells for thousands that does a fraction of what my I-Watch does for a fraction of the price! Do I like my new Apple Watch? No, I don't like it--I LOVE it! It's my newest Friend....

    To say I am happy with this purchase is an understatement. I simply love my Apple Watch. After a few weeks testing it out against my fitbit charge, i was satisfied it would handle my health needs. It was then that I discovered the possibilities with the new apps that were available. I unlock my Mac when I approach it without having to log in, monitor email, send quick texts without pulling out my phone, and remote control my TV/Music. It wakes me up without a loud alarm that jars my wife too. I can't picture life without it. An A+ on my chart.

    This was a purchase for a friend from her husband. She loves the watch. The stainless is beautiful and if she wants to go sport, she just switches out the band. Its amazing what an electronic device can do. This was on sale for $100 off the price. It was worth it.

    At first I was skeptical about getting an Apple Watch. Didn't know if it would fit into my lifestyle. Always wore a regular watch but after getting this watch I must say it is worth every penny. The fact that I don't have to carry my phone on me to receive text messages or phone calls is awesome. Having Apple Pay on the watch is another great feature. Made a purchase at an Apple Pay retailer today and everyone was blown away that I could pay with a watch. Very comfortable to wear. Highly recommended!!!

    I bought the Space Black Stainless Steel version after owning the Space Grey Sport version. The only thing I miss about the Sport is how light weight it was compared to this one. However I switched to this version due to the scratch resistance from the screen being sapphire! I was paranoid about my screen on the Sport getting scratched but didn't want to ruin the look of the watch with a protective case or a screen protector. The thing I love most about this watch is the fitness features. I love being able to see my distance, calories burned, and heart rate at a glance during my runs! I also love getting notifications right on my wrist. Whether I'm out on a run or just around the house, I don't have to worry about digging my phone out or keeping it within earshot so I don't miss a notification. It was expensive and it's definitely not a must have, but it is an excellent accessory to my iPhone! The only reason it doesn't get a full 5 stars is because I think the price could be a little lower.

    Intuitive and fun accessory(read review)

    For the price, you expect sleek and intuitive. It is those two things, but the magnetic band on the fancy wrist strap doesn't always stay aligned with the portion of band that it's magnetized to. Also, the band doesn't stay clasped as tight as you set it in the morning, this may be due to that band that slips. This is not an item you buy as a standalone item... It is an expensive accessory that enhances the user experience with your IPhone. The phone calls are speaker only when put through the watch... My favorite way to talk on the phone is by rubbing my beard repeatedly.... Lol. Makes it look less conspicuous. I turned off the sensors on the underbelly to save battery, and because I'm not active enough to utilize the workout aspects of the watch. I don't imagine that sweat under this watch would be comfortable though... The screen is very durable... I've smacked the on corners of tables and walls... No scratches. It is reportedly waterproof to a certain point... I've worn it in the rain and it didn't get effected... Haven't been gutsy enough to submerge it underwater. Apple Pay from the Watch is awesome, but a pain to set up. My biggest surprise in owning this item for the last few months, is how much freer and safer I feel while driving. Navigation is very fun... The haptic sensors on the under belly lightly pulse on your wrist when you have to turn left or right. With a flick of the wrist, you are able to see miles till directional turn, with a swipe to the left, you see a miniature maps displayed like you would see it in your iPhone. Also makes texting easier while driving... Quick responses are good, and voice to text is neat but not perfected (misspellings etc). Taking calls in the car, with the windows up is doable and my friends haven't reported any sound difference from watch versus cell phone in the car. On silent mode, the watch lets you navigate business meetings with much more finesse. You can quick glance and quick a text and swipe and dismiss it or answer it. Another favorite feature: holding your hand over the watch for three seconds silences it and turns off the screen. If a call is incoming you can Palm the watch face and it will deny it and if you quick glance to check a text but don't want to appear like you are boredly checking your watch (for those who don't notice it as an Apple Watch) you cover the watch and itch your wrist ;) It's a fun piece of technology, but the price is hefty.

    At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to buy the watch because they can be a bit pricey and wasn't sure if I'd use it everyday, but I decided to give it a shot and ended up getting it for my birthday. It was easy to set up and I use it just about everyday. Great for notifications you might normally miss if your phone was in your pocket, bag, or on vibrate because you receive the notification on your wrist also. Also great for getting quick info (emails, weather, calendar and so on) without having to pull your phone out . The only complaint I have but not a very big one is some apps take a few seconds to load at times and other times will load right away but that can also happen from time to time on the phone also depending on network/wifi connection so it's not a big deal to me. Over all I love the watch, and all the features it has.
