    Love it so far!
    I am a Fitbit person. But I decided to slurge a little bit...... The only think that kept me from switching was that I had to charge the watch so much more. I originally had the Fitbit charge 2...... then I purchased the series 3 (42mm) and I love this watch but it was just far too big. So I am returning the 42mm and just received the 38mm and am much happier with the size. I wanted to really share the size difference. I love this watch so far... will review in the future.

      I have enjoyed this watch for 4 years and it has been a great watch for me. I am a fitness instructor, and it is great to be able to track my calories, my heart rate, my steps, and have a timing mechanism on there that I personally use for interval trainings. I love that it has a variety of exercises to choose from, even a stretching one. I change my watch face often to the mood I am in. It does everything the phone does, although I just use to track my steps, my calories, and hitting my daily fitness goals. The battery will last all day long and is quick to charge back up. Highly recommend this watch!

      5.0 out of 5 stars Best $160 I ever spent!
      Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2022

      I’ve always wanted to get a smart watch but couldn’t decide if I wanted a Garmen, Apple Watch, Fitbit etc. I figured since I have an iPhone and I know apple products really well I’d go with an Apple Watch. I’ve never owned an Apple Watch before and wasn’t sure if I’d even like it that’s why I bought this one. This Watch was one of the best things I ever bought for myself! This little thing is capable of so much and is a great starter Watch for those wanting to try one! This thing can do everything my phone can do. This Watch connects to your iPhone via Bluetooth without draining any battery on your iPhone. This Watch will do anything a regular typical Watch can do (tell time, timer, stop watch, calculator) things like that! What I really love most about this Watch is how I can get phone calls and text messages from it. For instance if I ever get a text message or phone call my watch will automatically vibrate my wrist and display the text or incoming call that way rather than my phone going off. Which is really handy and saves you the embarrassment if you’re in the office or in a movie. You can also text from it and call from it and the other person wouldn’t even know the difference! I can also monitor my heart rate and fitness goals on this and use it to calculate how many steps or miles I’ve walked or how many calories I burn. I’ve had this Watch for about 2 years now and have had no problems with it at all. As long as you take care of it it will sure take care of you! I personally think once you get the hang of how to use a smart watch you never want to go back to a regular watch because of how handy it is! Love this and highly recommend it to anyone!

      5.0 out of 5 stars Works pretty well, battery life is crappy
      Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2019

      First, let me start by saying that I love this watch. I've never worn a watch in my life and I hate to take this thing off. Its so comfortable I don't even notice I'm wearing it all day. I'll also say I got this watch as a fitness tracker/sleep monitor so most of my review will surround that. Anyway, I digress. Let me list the pros and cons.

      PROS
      -comfortable weight and design
      -heart monitoring is on point
      -fitness tracking is a great motivator. I actually feel really disappointed in myself the days I don't close my rings.
      -sleep monitoring is pretty good. The complaint I have is about the app I'm using (pillow) and not about the monitoring itself. It helped me switch my sleep times to get better nights rest and I feel much more productive throughout the day.
      -it updates frequently with notifications. This may go on my con-list as well. :D
      -easy to use and intuitive
      -syncing is super simple, as well as updates and personal customization via the phone.

      CONS
      -It updates frequently with notifications! I know I could probably adjust this, but it is often helpful. Just sometimes very persistent.
      -The battery life. This is the main drawback to the watch. I end up charging it everyday to every other day depending on how many notifications and apps I use. On the longer side, it'll be every other day. I try to charge it in the morning while I get ready for work or while I'm driving to work so I don't lose out on the activity stuff or the sleep monitoring.
      -the sensitivity for the screen on. The first few nights I had the watch it would wake me up with the damn light in my dark room. The thing I got to monitor my sleep was making me lose it. I figured out it has a "theatre mode" and I put it on that before dozing off so it doesn't come on accidentally.

      On the whole its a great product and the health benefits of it are amazing. I really wavered back and forth between the FitBit Versa and this guy and I'm so happy I went with the apple watch. I was worried about having syncing issues and Apple to Apple was easy as pie.

      I am so glad I purchased this!!!! I’ll admit I was a little skeptical just as others were saying because of the description stating it was an Amazon renewed product. I honestly expected it to come in a brown box, plastic wrap all over the watch from being refurbished, etc. - and I also honestly thought people posting pictures of the item coming in new packaging just got lucky lol BUT mine came in all brand new packaging, sealed up and never opened before. If it is a refurbished product they did a bang up job of mocking the real satisfactory feeling of opening Apple packaging lol. Aside from it arriving in perfect condition, it also arrived a day early. I’m so in love, people are right. You don’t even know until you have one. Then on top of the early delivery, flawless new packaging and perfect condition, the watch itself works like a champ. I honestly had a hard time deciphering between the different features of series 1, 2, and 3 but what I do know is this thing has everything you need. It’s water resistant up to a certain level but regular swim sport and play is A Ok with it - just no scuba diving and high impact stuff like water skiing. Read and reply to text messages. Receive, make, and answer calls. If you use apple wallet get ready for a game changer lol plus a lot of the apps you use will have Apple Watch apps to go with it, so you have a ton of things to play around with. It’s true, battery life only lasts one to two days if you’re using it regularly like me, but that doesn’t bother me. I don’t wear it to track my sleep so it charges every night for me. All in all, this thing rocks and I’m so happy I finally broke down and made the purchase.

      Amo de paixão!
      A bateria dura 1 dia e meio. Mas é preciso carregar todo dia porque se não carregar, no dia seguinte fico sem relógio.
      É super prático, a função da carteira digital funciona mesmo sem o celular por perto ou internet. O tamanho é perfeito e posso fazer qualquer imagem de tela nele colocando uma foto.
      A tela é resistente, já caiu tanto no chão… bateu em coisas, e está inteiro. É mesmo a prova da água… faço tudo com ele, até banho e natação. Excelente. É muito prático.
      Ah! Amo AppleWatch. Não vivo sem.
      O próximo comprarei com o chip.
      Só acho que os preços dos dispositivos da apple no Brasil precisam ser menores e mais justo e a política da loja igual funciona nos EUA.
