I hate!! Nothing exciting,, Just not good for me...

I will never purchase anything from Best Buy again

I do like my watch but I can't say I love it. The main reason I got it was for the calling and texting feature and they kind of suck. It's extremely difficult to hear or be heard on a call and the speech to text rarely understands what I'm saying.

my best buy experience was awesome, however, this watch was not what i was looking for. I purchased it and although the apple commercials for the product were amazing, they were elaborated. Neat, but needs a lot of improvement to be successful.

In my opinion I feel apple products are over priced and over rated. The quality of the product is okay. But for all the money thsee things cost it should do more. I'm sure they will release 10 more versions before I finish this review.

I walked into my neighborhood Best Buy not thinking they had this one in stock. They did!!!!! I bought it and haven't taken it off since. The band is super soft and fits me perfectly, despite my tiny wrist. I love the features! No matter what, it does much more than any standard watch. I can read my texts but it's hard to reply. I love the neutral colors in this one. It's gorgeous!

Until it was broken, black screen, it was great. 9 days and it was dead. Best Buy couldn't replace the color same in less than 10 days so I took a black one. It lasted 16 days.

Apple Watch is very basic. Good for telling time and checking notifications, but that's about it. I wish I can return this watch and get the Apple Watch 2

I bought the 38mm Rose Gold Apple Watch for myself for Christmas. Even though the band color is a bit odd (lavender) it is a great sized watch for a lady. Easy to use, sleek and I get many compliments.

It has very limited features.im looking forward for the day that it can allow you to use FaceTime, write emails with voice ,and respond messages

This wach should just be caled pink. I would hardly say that is rose gold, and the lavender band is pink as well. Returned because it looks like Miss Piggy would like this watch.

The I watch doesn't really do anything the phone can't do. If you ask me you're just wasting your money. I don't know maybe in the future they will come up with apps to make it more useful. As far as tracking activity goes I suggest you save yourself $100 and go with a simple activity tracker. Also I'm not a big fan of the activity tracker app on the watch either. It doesn't really give you any good information.

Battery life is terrible and screen gets scratched pretty bad wish details about the watch were explained to me before purchasing

It was pretty cool at first but I was needing an exercise device like fit bit and this doesn't work well unless you have your phone on you which defeats the purpose.

After receiving the watch and taking it out of the big white heavy box, looking at the little app face with all the circles, I thought, gees, I'll never use this thing. Put it back in the box and was going to return to the BestBuy store the following week. I decided prior to my trip to BestBuy, I'd take it out of the box and try it again. Paired it with my phone and realized I didn't have to have my phone with me ALL THE TIME to get notices, texts, phone calls, figured out how to customize the clock face to my liking. I don't have very good cell reception where I work so the iphone sits in a window with 2 bars on a good day maybe 12 feet from my desk . I used to have to get up from my work station and go to the phone to see who was calling or read a text. NOT any more! It all shows up on the apple watch on my wrist. I decide whether or not the call, text, notification is worth going to the phone or just answer the text or call via the watch. For me, it's a time saver as a big part of my job is reading text messages. Glad I kept it :) And I'm still figuring out all it can do.

If you want to track your fitness I guess it's alright. For the price it should be a little more stronger of a product

Easy to set up. Like the ability to message/reply. Wish the distance was further out between the watch and phone.

Apple Watch is a pretty great tool for parents who like to stay active and go to the gym. I was trying to decide between a Jawbone UP3 and Fitbit (either surge or charge). I ultimately went with the watch because it was on sale and very competitive to the other options while promising to do more. Apple does really well at integrating their products and health apps. I have no idea how well Jawbone/Fitbit's data is integrated with other apps, but I really like how my steps and movement data from Watch syncs with apps such as Argus and Lose It. The built-in Workout app is exactly what I wanted in a smart watch, and the Move app is informative giving daily movement goals. Battery life is my one concern. since purchasing, I noticed some settings that needed tweaking to conserve battery life on both my watch and iPhone. I easily get through the day on the battery, but I would like to see at least 2 days of heavy use on a smart watch. Battery life is always my gripe with electronics and Apple products. Have to compliment the Apple Watch OLED display. Love how the black looks and makes the colors pop. The lovely part of the watch is not needing to turn on phone for notifications such as time, messages, and glances. Apple promotes that this will lead to more productivity and quality time with the family. Sure, but I still think if you don't use it for fitness you probably won't get much utility from the watch.

I bought the Apple Watch as a gift for my wife two weeks ago and I'm a hero. She loves the watch. Packaging is similar to other Apple products, i.e., first class. Everything is well protected in the box. After opening the exterior box, you must remove plastic protection from every surface. As a result, the watch arrived with no blemishes. My wife's watch arrived with minimal battery charge and would not turn on until she charged it a little. Battery life hasn't been an issue, but I expected more of an initial charge out of the box. The lavender band is a little grayer than it looks online. My wife preferred this, but be aware. When shopping for her iPhone 6s, she considered the rose gold, but elected to pass at the time. She likes it on the watch, however. I believe you must have an iPhone to use the watch. When you first turn on the watch, you are asked to pair it with your phone via a scan of the watch's face. After initial setup, all of your watch-capable apps show up on the watch's face. You can delete any you don't want from the watch or, more conveniently using your iPhone (My Watch -> app -> turn off the option to show on watch). We are now looking at a couple of accessories - a stand charger and perhaps an extra band. Overall, we're very pleased with the purchase and would recommend it.

I got the 38mm Yellow gold with antique band. I initially thought i wanted the Rose gold but ended up with the yellow and I am glad I choose it. The rose gold is VERY pink in my opinion. If that is what you are looking for then you will love it. The yellow gold is not overly yellow and is very subtle. It looks very nice with the brown leather band I purchased. As far as how it functions, it works pretty well. It was easy to sync and set up. I love the ability to make it your own as far as changing the face, what it displays and the color its in. I like different faces for different activities like work and going out vs exercise or the weekend. I took off a star because the Stand in the activity doesn't pick up accurately and I had issues with it not answering calls. There have been many times it has not sensed that i was standing and had been for a while. It does accurately pick up movement and heart rate. I think it is more accurate than my previous activity monitor (a Jawbone). Another thing that has not worked as well as i thought it would is answering calls on it. I have had a few times when I push the green button to answer a call and it did not sense it and the caller hung up before it finally worked. Notifications come through well. You can pick which apps you want to have notifications sent to it. I really like being able to see my text messages without having to get my phone out. I wish you could put your own short text responses in to have (maybe you can and I just don't know how to) but most of the ones available are useful. If they don't work, it usually would be too long to text on the watch anyway so you would want to do it on your phone. I have not been able to test out sending a message to another person with an apple watch because I'm the only person i know that has one currently. I have been very pleased with the battery life. It has never died on me and I have even had it last >24 hours (I was at work and did not use the exercise mode which does decrease the battery quicker). Over all I love it! Is it absolutely necessary to have? NO. Is it fun? YES. I get a lot of compliments on it and questions about it. Several other people are getting them after seeing mine.
