    Great watch!

    Most of my family got the 42 mm watch, but this really works for a small wrist. The screen is very clear and easy to read. I prefer the bigger size; I'd definitely go try them on if you are on the fence. We all love our Apple Watches. I was going to wait for the next generation, but I'm glad I went ahead and got one because it has been such a time saver for me.

    Very Useful!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I researched the reviews here on this website and then went to my local best buy several times over the last month before reaching a decision to make this purchase. I knew I wanted a watch that was useful for both work and play (exercise). Specifically, I wanted a watch that didn't require me to carry my cell phone with me during work hours, yet I could still get important notifications. I also needed a device that would help in my fitness goals. I picked the rose gold 38mm and lavender band and purchased the milanese loop seperately. I loved the two tone combination as far as looks and I love the function of the watch itself. Set up was super easy and customizing it was fast and easy. The pairing with my iphone was easy I appreciated the app where there are videos to get you acquainted with the watch. I feel like the construction is very high-end and it will last a long time (as long as technology updates allow). I am not regretting my purchase and I would recommend this watch to anyone.

    Love My Apple Watch!

    I absolutely love my Apple Watch! The rose gold is pretty, and the lilac band is very neutral. I have received countless compliments! Being a mother of 4 and a teacher, I have a crazy schedule. This has simplified my life! I never wore a watch prior to this, so I was hesitant when it was first released. However, I am so happy that I purchased it!!!

    The watch is good for everyday things but heart rate monitor lacks when working out (lifting, plyometric, etc) so goals are never meet.

    Best smart watch for iPhone users

    This is the best smart watch for iPhone users. It works smoothly together and has many apps available. I wear mines daily and feel lost whenever I forget it. Only thing that would make it better is if It was waterproof.

    Apple Does It Again!!!

    I got this watch as a Christmas and I love all the functions and apps that are available in this Smart Watch! I was planning to buy a FitBit, but this tracks what I need and more! I'm still learning all of it's functions and I am amazed at how Apple continues to deliver superior products again and again! I love it, I almost feel lost with it!

    I wouldn't say this changed my life, and I'm sure Apple will make this progressively better, but it is a step in the right direction for a smart watch. For big Apple fans it's a must. For everyone else, it's a bit pricey for a hyped up watch. Get it on sale.

    The start of something great

    I'd been interested in the Apple Watch since it was announced over 1.5 years ago. When the new gold Sports model came out, I almost jumped on it, but held out for a dark blue band in 38mm. However, when the holiday price cuts came it was too hard to resist diving in. It's quite handy when driving, both for navigation and for receiving notifications with minimal distraction. Taking a phone call from the watch is pretty neat too, especially if don't have enough spare hands. And I love the convenience of Apple Pay. The biggest downside for me has been the battery life: I'd like to use it as a sleep tracker, but I give up after a while because I end up running out of battery in the day time. Since it uses a proprietary and relatively bulky charger, it's very hard to find an secondary power source in a pinch. I think the next version will be a hit. I don't care if they change the look — improving performance will go a long way towards user experience. It would also help to get more third-party apps on it such as WhatsApp or Google Hangouts (one can still reply to those messages from the watch, but once the notification's dismissed, there's no way at all to reply).

    Nice accessory for your iPhone

    Good watch. Convenient for notifications. A bit on the small side for a man and least in my opinion. Battery life needs to be better. You can make it through the day with moderate usage but if you become a very heavy user of the device and have all your app notifications go through it, you may struggle. 42mm is a tad bit better here.

    I absolutely love my apple watch! It paired very easily with my phone, and I love all the features. Especially great for counting steps and tracking workouts! I was concerned about battery life after reading into the product, but have had absolutely no problems with low battery during long days. Would definitely recommend this product.

    My husband and I bought each other this Apple Watch for Christmas and we love them! I'm an event director and having my phone on me is always a pain during events. This watch lets me communicate without having the worry of misplacing my phone :) I also love the ping feature, so when I do lose my phone, I can find it again :)

    Dream Watch

    I love the look of this watch!! The color combo is feminine but the style is practical. This is one of the few smart watches that doesn't look clunky and geeky. I love that I can listen to music, track my workout and my heart rate all at the same time.

    Received my iWatch for Christmas and I love it, super easy to use especially if you are familiar with iphones! My favorite feature is when I'm driving and using GPS it gives me a signal where to turn/etc so I don't have to take my eyes off the road! Tons of other favorites too just thought I would mention that one!

    Was really on the fence about buying one. I really wanted it for the convenience when I'm out with my twins. I have a 6 plus and at times it's just too big. Sounds bratty, I know. But it's made it just that much easier for me. Now I can see who's calling without letting go of a twin or two to dig for my phone.

    Cool watch, makes receiving texts easy. I can get notifications in real time even when I do not have my phone near by. I am still figuring the watch out but am having fun doing so. The only reason for the 4 stars is the battery life. It only lasts about half the day, even on low light. I enjoy it.

    I have had my watch for over 6 months now and it is definitely a must have in my life. I like how it keeps up with my heart rate, movement and exercise, and how I am alerted and can read text messages, weather alerts, and the like (I don't currently use it for email). The exterior shows no wear at all, I do take it off if I am doing any work such as moving things or doing tasks where I feel it may get damaged, so I haven't put it through anything extreme. I do, however, wash it in the sink with a little mild soap and water. The white band hasn't stained or anything. Over all I really enjoy my watch and the various apps that make it both purposeful and fun.
