Simply amazing
Rating: 5
Completely amazed. I had planned to get a fitness watch but it couldn’t meet my needs. This one goes above and beyond. It is my first smart watch. It’s easy to use for fitness, music, texting, calling (if your phone is near by). I can’t imagine not having this! I can continuously see the time with a second hand. I can choose the watch face and the display

Smart Watch Review

I have waited several years to finally get an Apple Watch because I was worried about their durability especially given the higher price tag compared the FitBit Versa I replaced with this purchase. I love it so far! I also purchased a screen protector and bumper, and I think I'm set!

First I hate watches and got one of these for my birthday...I though oh no I am going to disappoint wife and kids so i just put it on and believe it or not I love it. The features are awesome. Ease of setup was incredible. Connectivity with phone is awesome. No need to pick up my phone around the house or go running for it when its in the other room and you get a call. The exercise feature will remind you to do thing, to close your different "rings" and will award you with stupid things that will actually motivate you to move and to exercise. Before the end of this year everyone in my family will have one. They are fantastic.

There is a scratch to the front of the watch, also this item was advertised as 379 being 50 dollars off and once it was in the cart it was more expensive also, I was told that if I screenshot you guys would be able to help with a price match from competition

Not working
Rating: 1
Picked up item from store, the shipping box was baddly damage, the apple box had very little defects and scratches. I opened the box and tried to connect to phone and watch kept factory resetting and acted like was refurbished and wanted to connect to old set up. Randomly during set up went to Black screen with apple and occasionally switches to black screen. No tips or tricks will change the screen. I will be exchanging for a product that works.

Very happy!
Rating: 5
Oh wow! So impressed with the delivery time. I think I got my watch 2 days after I ordered it. The watch was very well packaged too! The watch itself is exactly what I needed and wanted. I needed to replace my series 2 watch since the screen cracked and it wasnt worth getting fixed (unfortunately, thanks apple...), so the series 3 is perfect and does everything I need it to. Thank you Walmart!!

The Little Apple
Rating: 5
I have purchased this Apple Watch 3-series July 13th, 2020, and I absolutely adore this watch. It was inexpensive compared to the Apple Watch 4-series and 5-series, as well, at $169.00 plus applicable taxes and shipping. However, it does everything I wanted to do, plus some: heart-rate monitor, view, read, and respond to text messages; set alarm clock, let you inhale and exhale periodically throughout the day with an app built inside the watch, among others. It is like your smartphone within a smartphone with features as dial and talk, let someone start their vehicle from the watch itself. To make a long story short, I don't think anyone would be disappointed with this device. Although, the screen size is incredibly smaller than the 4-series, as well as 5-series.
