I got this as a gift for myself after a long stressful month of quarantine. It was worth the price. I can’t seem to take it of my wrist. Definitely recommend, especially if your are looking to be more active and healthy.

Apple Watch 5 Aluminum Sport
Rating: 5
Battery life doesn’t seem like it’s much improved, but I suppose that’s due to the “always on” functionality. I previously owned the Apple 3 Stainless, and I have to say the quality of the aluminum design is so nice that I don’t even notice the difference other than weight and the subtle matte finish. Screen size is fantastic and the new watch faces are beautiful.

Apple does it again!
Rating: 5
It is another great Apple product. Simple to switch from one apple product to another. Great packaging and beautiful product. Love that you can always see the time and the extra face options. The raise to summon SIRI is new and I keep forgetting that but I love it.

It’s Okay
Rating: 5
I Not very different then the Series 3 for the features that I use. I do like the design though. I give it a 5 because I would give the Series 3 five stars.

The Best Watch Ever!
Rating: 5
I bought the Apple Watch for my wife, she has been struggling with an Arrhythmia of the heart and fibromyalgia, and a friend of mine told me that the Apple Watch is great for monitoring heart rates, and oxygen levels, and that it also helps with breathing techniques. My wife is definitely a fan and loves how user friendly the Apple Watch is.

Nice smart watch
Rating: 4
I like it, wish I would have purchased the bigger sized one because the 40mm seems so small. This seems like a very smart watch, not like the ones trying to pass off as one. Love the battery life, not all smart watches out there last very long. Or have all the features that’s this watch has.

Refurbished- not all items included
Rating: 1
I purchased this watch expecting to receive what is described in the item description. What I received was a refurbished watch. It was not packaged in an apple box, it did not come with the 2 different sized watch bands as stated (and the one it came with is not an apple original) and no wall charger. It was a good price but the description failed to describe what you will actually receive. Very disappointed.

Hate it - its not like a original new product
Rating: 1
I just wasted my time buying this item! It does not come as a new product in the box, it came in a plastic bag with a bracelet totally different from the original. I just wasted my money and time now to make the return.
