    I have been wanting the apple watch for a long time. When it went on sale, it was time to buy! In some ways I just wasn't sure how this would fit into my ecosystem of apple products and was prepared to be disappointed and return it. NOT SO! It is different than the fitbit you're used to wearing when it comes to fitness, but I'm finding that it works well for what I need. The learning curve was nothing if you're used to apple products. I'm in meetings a lot and love getting texts on my watch without the obvious picking up your phone. I use it heavily and usually have 30% battery life at the end of a 12-13 hour day. I'm so happy that I bought this watch.

    Bought this for my wife who is not very tech savvy and she loves it. I originally bought it for the fitness functions. She also likes seeing her texts at a glance and being able to answer the phone without getting the phone out of her purse. Also the apple pay feature is convenient when shopping.

    I am a school bus driver and I had a watch that was illuminated by touching a button but when I saw how the Apple Watch activates its face when you raise your wrist I was sold. I drive in the the morning when it's still dark outside and this watch is awesome when I need to check my time!

    I bought this open box online. It came with everything in the box and in excellent condition, and it shipped fast. But it was still linked to somebody else's Apple ID. So, I can't use it for the next couple of days, while Apple decides I didn't steal it and resets the ID. Thanks, Best Buy.

    Purchased as a Christmas present for my girlfriend and she absolutely loves it. Extreme convenience of having iPhone functions on her wrist easily accessible without having to take her phone out of her bag. Durable, very comfortable, and, if you can catch a sale, worth the money!

    Love my Mothers Day present

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

    I love this item. My husband bought it for me for mothers day and I love it. I use it daily at the gym to track my workouts and it gives me positive feedback toward reaching my goals and I love being in constant connection with my cell phone. Being a working mom it means the world to me to be able to sit through meetings and or trainings and not have to have my phone sitting on the table. I know when my kids school is calling or someone is having trouble picking my kids up. Great item APPLE

    Awaiting the Apple Watch 2

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

    As a RN, I expected this device to make my job easier as far as staying connected, improving my patient care, and tracking my activity throughout the day. I found that I was wasting time trying to figure out what the watch would and would not do. And on top of that, I had to keep my phone nearby for notifications to push through, which is not always the easiest on a hospital floor. Also, there are not enough apps at this time to make the watch worthwhile (even with the $100 off)! The design is beautiful and the strap was comfortable. Maybe offer a blush pink band with the rose gold. The lavender wasn't really lavender. I am brand loyal to Apple due to their quality and aesthetics and will be anxiously awaiting the next version of the Apple Watch.

    We have always been an i product family. I gave this as a gift. The receiver was thrilled and constantly updates me on new features she's discovered. This product has made answering calls and using apps easier while at work. It was on sale when I bought it. It's just perfect!!

    I'm in love with my apple watch I got it and a fitbit for christmas and guess what??? The fit bit went back, I would sit on the couch and shake my arms and the they fitbit would count it as steps. I love being able to use my watch who driving to answer the phone, turn by turn directions, and changing my music. These feature are great when you're in the gym getting those gains and don't want to be distracted.

    The Apple Watch is really cool. It has a great design and easily fit my cousins wrist. No adjustments needed. It has good functionality and I like that it has many different bands to choose from. It is a bit expensive for a watch, but worth it for the appearance.

    Apple Watch as a fitness tracker

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

    I was in the market for a fitness tracker. Had tried a low end FitBit but it didn't track what I wanted it to. So I returned it and waited for the Apple Watch to go on sale. I looked at the higher end fitness trackers but they were just as expensive as the Apple Watch. So, I dove in and I LOVE it. I can track my indoor or outdoor workouts. It has pre listed workouts or you can set it to "other" and just go. I just wish it was water resistant/water proof so I could use it on my swims. But it links up with my fitness pal and documents all of my exercise for me in that app. Love this watch.

    Bought this for my hubby and he loves it! I was worried that the smaller one wouldn't work for his size (6'4" 200Ib guy) but in fact it's great! I've heard no complaints from him about how small it is and pushing the buttons. It's totally doable! Fun tech toy!

    Great for those who like to carry your phone in your purse or pocket. Makes it very easy to read your messages or answer a call without digging out your phone. Doubles as a fitness band that keeps track of your activity and breaks it down for you.

    The Apple watch is great!!! At first I didn't think I liked being that connected, but after a week it's great being around the house and not worrying about my phone, or just glancing down in a meeting to see who's calling, emailing, or texting.

    This watch works seamlessly with my iPhone 6 Plus. It doesn't have as big of a profile as I thought. I'm very happy with this new watch. My favorite feature is the Taptic Engine. It provides a nice tap on my wrist when I get a notification.

    Absolutely Gorgeous

    I bought this watch for my wife. Needless to say she loves it. It's absolutely beautiful the rose gold is stunning. Of course now it can track her movements and encourage her to stand and more. She receives her text messages and phone calls and all mail FB notifications. And when she set directions on her phone it automatically gave her turn by turn directions right on her wrist with the little pulses the watch gives. Think about it for a good watch you would spend more but not be able to do half of what you can do with this watch.
