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.

Great looking & great features
Rating: 5
I previously owned several Fitbit trackers which were “OK”. It seemed like I was always replacing bands or my screen would crack. I decided I needed to see what else was available and I'm so happy I did! The Vivomove 3S is a beautiful watch and an accurate tracker with fun extra features like the weather, controlling the music on your phone, email, etc. I LOVE my Garmin!

I was disappointed in this watch and returned it. It was difficult to read and didn't have many features that a smart watch should have.

Pretty watch poor touch screen
Rating: 1
I bought this expensive watch for Christmas to upgrade from my old Apple Watch I loved and to use for track season, training, swimming, etc. This watch is beautiful to look at, and I've gotten so many compliments on its appearance; however, the touch screen hasn't worked correctly at all. It won't even let me start a long run much less speed workouts. It's frustrating due to the price and how much time I've wasted trying to figure it out. I've heard so many great reviews and wanted to love it, but I'm sadly unable to use it.
