    Love my Apple Watch! I really like the gold vs the rose gold bc the Rose gold is more pink. It's not too hard to figure out and the 38mm was great for me bc I have a small wrist...I'm a little over 5 ft. I love apple products and definitely prefer to purchase all of my electronics from Best Buy bc of the rewards program! Plus it was on sale!

    I received this for Christmas as a total surprise. I'm still learning about all the features, but I do like it, so far. I'm a bit disappointed at the length of battery life. I have to charge it every night. I was hoping it would also measure my sleep activity, but you have to enter your sleep and wake times, so that is inconvenient. I do like the ability to record different exercise activities and to be able to customize the watch. I do like being able to receive calls, texts and notifications on the watch.

    It was a gift for my sister and she loved it! She especially loved the color and how great and seamlessly it works with her iPhone. She uses the health and fitness apps almost daily and hasn't had a problem with any yet.

    My Wife Loves It

    My wife had NO interest in the Apple Watch, until I bought mine and she could see some of the useful things she could do with one. I bought her this one within a week of getting mine and she loves it. She is using many of the health features to track her activity and becoming more active as well as responding quicker to texts and emails. It has become a very handy tool.

    This watch is awesome. I really like all of the things that I can do with it. It keeps me in check with the Activity app as well as allows me to do much more. I did some extensive comparing of other smart watches when I was looking and the Apple Watch was clearly the best. Definitely worth it! I would definitely recommend this watch.

    I am technology illiterate, but I like the Apple Watch. It probably does much more than what I use it for. As a teacher, I love that I can get messages/emails on my watch without having to look unprofessional and keep my phone with me at all times. I never know when my babysitter is going to text about my kids. So this makes it handy!

    I use my watch to log my fitness , it's wonderful to get my calls, email and texts when I'm busy and I don't need to pull my phone from my purse. I have bought a few bands now to switch up with what I'm wearing If you love Apple , you will love this Apple Watch.

    I love my Apple Watch. Before I got this I only used my Fitbit for fitness tracking. Now I am able to do that and also I can receive and send text messages from my Apple Watch. If you love your iPhone then make sure you get this watch. It does come in handy.

    Bought this watch for my wife. She changes the band to match the occasion or color schemes. She wears it all the time, especially because it tracks her movement and tells her how much exercise she gets in a day. She also likes that she can see her text messages and has the privilege to answer only those that need quick responses.

    The apple watch is very slick and great design, the color and stylish are awesome, my wife love it, the set up was a bit confusing, tutorials advise only two or tree steps to set up the devise, but within every step are 4-5 different processes so be aware. but once it gets pair up, to use it is fun and pleasant, it is a gem

    He hasn't been much of a watch wearer, but this is a convenient way to get notifications without constantly looking at his phone. He's pleased with the color and band. He was worried about the smaller size, but he didn't want the bulk of the larger one and he's happy with his choice. For the lowest price option it's perfect.

    I've been wanting an Apple Watch for some time but just couldn't justify the price. Now that they have been $100 less I jumped to buy one. I love the rose gold and lavender color. Also with the new watch iOS 2 they've added a ton new features to the watch. If your on the fence about buying one, do it. You won't regret it.

    Whilst my preference would have been for the Milanese model, I couldn't pass up the deal on the sports one as I wanted to make sure that all of the hype was real. Well, after wearing it for a month now I can honestly say that it is! Its comfortable, easy to set up (as nearly all Apple products are), and it has been that one thing that has actually helped me in my efforts to lose weight and get healthy! The apps for measuring your exercise and activity each day, whilst similar to other trackers - have actually helped me realize that I needed to do just that little bit more to actually effect change. I can say this because I had been using the UP tracker for a year and had barely made a dent in my weight loss despite diligently monitoring and recording my meals. It recharges quickly and looks great too :) Plus being an avid Disney fan, I love the Mickey watch face.

    I bought this gift for my boyfriend who has been using it every day since he got it. He highly recommends the watch for highly active people who want an easier alternative to checking their messages on their phone without having to reach into their pockets for their phones. The apple watch tracks many physical activities and provides an accurate representation of all your daily movements. In addition, while app developers are still creating apps on the applewatch, most of the main applications are readily available for the watch. One way to save money: I purchased the 38mm watch but my boyfriend got a watch case for it like a phone case that was the same color as the watch, and the watch now looks as big as a 42mm.

    The watch was easy to sync with the phone and has nice fitness activity tracking. Notifications and phone calls show up on the watch which is very convenient as well as being able to control the phone's camera. The custom watch faces are nice as well.

    I really like the watch. I had a Fitbit before and the Apple Watch is so much better. I love being about to use it for checking the weather or my messages while at work. I thought the shorter battery life would bother me, but it doesn't. I just charge it in my down time. I have the smaller version in the rose gold.

    I bought this for the fitness tracking, but it doesn't really do a very good job. It only says I burn about 3-400 calories a day and my steps/milage has never been accurate. I do a high-intensity jazzercise routine every day and it does a terrible job of recording that activity. Heart rate monitor is not that accurate as well. BUT, text / calls on my wrist is nice when I'm teaching and my phone is locked in my desk. There are advantages to it for sure and I like it so far.

    I was on the fence about getting an Apple Watch. Sure it's beautiful, but I wasn't sure I wanted to spend $350 only to be disappointed in the end. So when Best Buy dropped the price by $100 I decided to give it a try. It turned out to be so much more useful than I expected it to be. I love that I can get reminders and notifications of texts discretely on my wrist rather than everybody hearing my phone alerts. And the activity app actually has me exercising more. The watch face is also customizable so I can see the time, date, current weather, battery level and my activity progress with just a lift of my wrist. Oh, and did I mention how beautiful it is? I love having multiple watch band colors to choose from (extra colors sold separately, of course) rather than wearing the same watch I've been wearing for years whether it went with what I wore or not.

    I love gadgets, so it was a no brainer that I would be buying an Apple Watch at some point. I love this thing. I work in a hospital and am on the go all day, so it is wonderful to be able to look down at my watch and see who is calling me and decide if I should ignore it or not. Prior to this watch I would have to wait until I was finished with my patient to go and look at my phone and see who had called. I have a child in school, and at this time of year he gets sick a lot, so being able to see if the school is calling is a big plus for me. This is a convenience and I love it. Maybe some day they will make one that can actually take photos, but for now I love all it can do. Keeping track of my steps is a breeze with this and I love how it reminds me to stand for 1 minute every hour. I am in school and sometimes a couple of hours will go by before I get up from studying, so this reminds me to move more. You wont be disappointed! I now have a few friends who have one as well and it is fun being able to send drawings, heartbeats and "pokes" to each other as well as awesome animated emojis.

    The iWatch is a good tool for fitness. It may not have the fitness tracking ability of other products, but the ease of viewing messages, email, phone calls, and other items as well as ease of responding make it a great tool. It is so much better than walking around with your phone in your hand, especially in my job setting. While extremely light, it has a smart look on my wrist.
