I debated about waiting for the new version of the Apple Watch which might come out later this year, but I'm glad I went ahead and bought it now! It's easy to use, easy to change the watch face, bands are easily changed. It came with the blue nylon band and I loved it so much, comfortable and washes easily. I do lots of farm work while wearing the watch so I wanted bands that I can wash. I ordered another band nylon, ivory color so while one is drying I have a dry one. Modular clock face is my favorite because I can have fitness, time, my calendar, a timer, the outdoor temperature and weather forecast all in the face for easy access. So many options to choose. I want a white leather band from Apple but they are sold out, so I am trying another leather band by Clockwork Synergy. Another feature I love is when using the map app on my phone it vibrates in my watch and posts each turn on the watch. I've had the watch for over a month and I can tell it will hold up well even with my farm lifestyle! The rose gold color is pretty but not many Apple bands match it well. Hope Apple comes out with more bands soon. It's fun to change the looks of the watch with new bands. (I tried the lavender sport band and it was soft but the material bothered my skin)

So far I love this watch. I have to say the fact that it makes you move every hour is awesome plus you can actually talk as if on your phone. Needless to say you have to have your phone near you. I have yet to master the activity tracking for when you exercise but I believe it was a great buy.

I like the fact that I can keep track of my activities, I love the appearance of the watch. Love the fact that I can change the color and the watch faces also switch different color bands which are beautiful plus so much more.

It was a gift for my husband . He wanted the Apple watch since it was released so I decided to surprise him in buying the Iwatch. As far as I know, he is in love with the watch considering it works with his Iphone and iPad.

I bought this for my wife to help her track workouts and to keep in touch as she tends to leave her phone in one location at the house. It exceeds expectations. It tracks steps, heart rate and other items depending on what app you use. No matter where she leaves her phone in the house she still gets her email notifications, texts and even phone calls!! She tells me it's so light she does t even really know she is wearing it. And like all things Apple, it looks amazing and is easy to use. Best of all it just works, and no need for difficult setups.

The 38 size is great for someone with a small wrist! I have had an Apple Watch since they first came out and purchased this for my daughter. She loves the rose color which matches her phone and the new band is nice!

I purchased this as a gift and it is stunning looking! I was having a hard time finding this specific color combination, so when I saw it on Best Buy, I purchased right away. Best Buy shipped super quick, just a great experience. The product itself looks great and is easy to use. Connecting it to an iPhone is very easy. Battery life is great and there are a lot of features packed into this watch.

Outstanding gift for my mother

My mother was asking for a GPS. With her owning an iPhone 6s she had the best in class GPS right at her fingertips. What she wanted though was the ability to still be on he phone, drive, and know where to go. The Watch provided that to her. Outside that, she now has fallen in love with checking your steps, health goals (Health Rings), seeing who text or calls, and getting live notifications all the time. For a 62 year old...I think the Watch proved to to be more than the original ask of a GPS.

I ended up buying this watch after buying the fitbit. I found the fitbit too basic and didn’t perform to my expectations. The Apple watch is perfect! It’s literally like having your smartphone on your wrist. It’s easy to program, update, charge, track steps, etc… a really good buy. There is nothing I would change or add to the watch as it really functions well and meets my needs.

I have tons of watches that I use alternately everyday. But since I bought my Apple watch, I never used any of my other watches. I also had Fitbit Blaze but the Apple watch has all the features that my Fitbit has... plus more. The blue woven band is just awesome. I get so many compliments with the band that goes well with my rose gold watch. I recently bought a white sports band to go with all of my summer outfit. At first I was hesitant to get the 38mm thinking that the strap might be too short but it was perfect for my wrist. I am just happy having my Apple watch :-)

It is a excellent accessory to my iphone6 plus. The only downside is the battery. It lasts a 1 1/2 days on a single charge if I'm not using the complications much. I love the animated emojis on the text msg replying.

Watch is great, very intuitive. All the features I wanted at a reasonable price. Sadly, stopped working in less than a monthly. I bought AppleCare at the time of the purchase. Called Bestbuy to see how to proceed...what a hassle! They kept trying to talk me in to bringing to Geek Squad despite my informing them I had AppleCare. Finally called Apple directly and they are replacing it. We'll see how the new one holds up.

I wasn't sure I would like the Apple Watch. It has really grown on me. I have Apple products but this watch was dual purpose. Looking to upgrade my Fitbit Charge HR to something that gave me email/phone call notifications as well. As a fitness watch I don't find it as easy to use as the Fitbit. The trick is to find the right app to load on the watch for your specific fitness program. It takes some time to set up the watch and get up to speed on operating the many features, One ofher bothersome issue is the short battery life. Again, compared to the Fitbit which lasted days on a charge, I cannot get a full day out of my Apple Watch. But I also use it as an extension of my phone. For that purpose, I am very pleased.

I read many reviews about the Apple watch. Then it took me forever to pick out the watch color and band color. I am so glad I went with this one! I love the looks and how it functions. It was easy to learn how to use and the Geek Squad was very helpful in setting it up for me and showing me how the features worked.

So I got this watch for about $13 and change. It was on sale for $249. I got a $200 Best Buy gift card for old Apple phone and had $50 worth of Best Buy dollars. So pretty much paid the taxes! Love the features, design, and way it works with my iPhone.
