It’s a great watch!
I like the larger face as compared to my first generation watch. Medical features are also at the top of my list.

my experience with apple products is that they work. they work well, they work together. I’m happy with this watch. wanted features to help me with my fitness, sleep, etc. Battery charges in 15 minutes. it syncs with my phone and laptop. it’s great.

Exactly what I needed
As a fan of the Apple Eco-system (iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch) I upgraded to Series 8 for the features that involve your health. The heart and fitness information is exactly what I was looking for. The battery is long lasting (up to two days) so I can wear it all night (when it once detected Afib) and charge it for an hour or so in the morning. Everything you like about Apple Watch is here, and more.

I want a little money my wife got this
I want a little money I paid off a few bills. We had a little leftover and she’s like oh good I can get a new watch. She likes it if mom is happy, I’m happy because what they say is. If mama ain’t happy, ain’t nobody going to be she loves it.

Excellent , Love it.
Great for fitness tracking, Encourages you to excerise daily, Also the fact that you do not need your iphone on you all the time , when reeiving a call. I purchased watch with a $60 discount from Amex, which results in a great buy. Love that you can track your heart rate when excerising. and see the improvements in your heart rate .VENDOR SHOULD STATE IN DESCRIPTION , THAT YOU REQUIRE A MINIMUM OF A IPNONE 8 TO PAIR THE WATCH. IN REVIEWS SOME CUSTOMER PURCHASED THIS WATCH WITHOUT BEING AWARE OF THIS FACT.

apple continues to deliver
I recently purchased the Apple Watch Series 8 and I have to say, I am extremely impressed with its performance and features. The watch is sleek and stylish, with a beautiful display that makes it a pleasure to wear. The fitness tracking features are also top-notch, accurately tracking my workouts and providing valuable insights into my activity levels.I also appreciate the convenience of being able to receive notifications and make payments directly from my wrist. The watch is also water-resistant, making it the perfect companion for my swim workouts.Overall, I would highly recommend the Apple Watch Series 8 to anyone looking for a high-quality, versatile smartwatch that can keep up with their active lifestyle. It has quickly become an indispensable part of my daily routine.

Love my Apple watch
Love my Apple Watch. There are so many features to figure out. I like that Mini Mouse will tell me the time. Use Low Power Mode to extend battery life. Mostly got it for the sleep, steps, health features and especially for asking, then calling someone if I fall down.

First Time Apple Watch User, Impressed!
I am sure there are a lot of you wondering what exactly you need a smart watch for when you have a smartphone. I too was one of these people wondering the same thing asking myself if I could justify the price, how often would I use it, is it worth it, and all those questions. Meanwhile, when my sister heard I was considering one, little did I know she already had one and she was able to tell me all the benefits of them and really suggested I get one which settled it for me. So, I made the purchase.Initially, I was not sure about which size to get but historically I get larger size items like the iPhone MAX so I can see the screen, or the larger iPad, etc. So, I decided to get the larger faced watch with GPS only – I didn’t see the need to get wifi personally.Once the watch arrived, I opened up the box and went through the puzzle of getting the watch, band and charging wire out of there. I admit, it was a bit complex to go through but I finally got all the components out.Setting it up was easy, paring with phone no problem.I have been using the watch for a few months now. I find myself trying to be more active, monitoring my heart more and monitoring my sleeping which is one of the important reasons I got the watch. The watch itself isn’t causing me to sleep better, but I can identify the times I’m awake during the night and make adjustments with my sleep schedule to get more sleep which has worked for me. The watch tells me to stand up and move are around (I work a 9-5 desk job and never took a moment to stretch) as well as to take a moment to breathe and clear my mind – all good features. Not only do I work 9-5 at the desk, afterhours and weekends I’m doing mechanical work, work where you typically have two hands occupied and really greasy and dirty. I was surprised I could call from and receive calls to the watch instead of having to drop everything, clean up, find my phone and take important calls.The strap/band the watch comes with is alright, but I made the mistake of putting them on the watch the wrong way which, if you do the same thing, it is very easy for the strap to come unbuttoned and the watch will come off. Once this was pointed out to me and corrected, it is much more secure and easy to clean (again, grease/grime/dirt from mechanical work). I would suggest you have different bands for different activities you do as the original band sometimes makes my wrist tired after a long day of wear.I opted not to get any sort of protective case or screen for the watch but your preferences may differ. I also choose not to wear it in water even though it is water resistant.BATTERY: It will last me a day before I need to charge. Do not expect it to last days on end. However, it does charge pretty fast so you can put it on the charger when you find time for a break during the day. I choose to charge it either at night before bed when I’m getting things ready for the next day, and then I’ll put it on before sleep. Or, I’ll take it off in the morning when I wake up and charge it while I’m getting myself ready for the day.As far as recommendation – yes, I would recommend it. It has the capability of your phone without having to actually carry the phone everywhere you go around the house but I find it having more health related benefits that the phone simply can’t offer you.

Upgraded from series 3 and WOW
Love all of the features series 8 offers compared to series 3 that I’ve written for several years! More of my phone apps work on this watch, such as my geenie app so I can turn on and off lights from my watch. I love the heath features, I have AFib and I’m getting old so it’s important to me to keep an eye on my heart rate and blood oxygen even if I’m not at home. ECG could help me know if I need to go to the ER too. Yes, I know my rate in my pic is high but I’m ok, I was just up and active, it’s back down now. This is the 41mm, I considered the big one but as you can see my wrists are tiny and the 45mm would have been too big for me. This one has a much bigger and edge to edge screen than my series 3, much easier for aging eyes to read. I’m very happy with my purchase!! And it was a great price too!

Love it
Pros:-Siri is amazing on this. I just lift my watch and tell Siri to do something. Setting timers for food cooking has never been so easy. Alarms, reminders, etc.- The color and graphics are fantastic- Fitness tracking is what I always wanted. Sometimes I have workouts where I know there’s points in the middle where I’m slacking. The watch will be able to tell if it was active calories burnt vs regular.- Tracking everything with the app is really nice. I can easily access my workouts- Calls come in pretty clear though I don’t use this feature often-Charges so fastCons:- The Sleep app is TERRIBLE. I downloaded a better one than the default and it’s still kind of annoying that I have to pick my bedtime hours to track and if I sleep outside of those hours it doesn’t teach.- Ignoring groups can be tricky. I keep trying to ignore a group and 3 days later, the notifications will be on again- Battery life isn’t the BEST, but still decentOverall, I love this watch. It can charge in like an hour so I’m pretty good at keeping it charged. The only thing I wish is if they could fix the sleep tracking. I really wanted accurate data for that.

Gorgeous color
I love the gorgeous red of this watch. The watch was packaged nicely. The instructions were easy to follow. This watch is so much more advanced than my Fitbit. I love all the numerous features and learn something new and cool every day about it! I was surprised by the battery life but it makes sense since I have it set to flash on at every movement but it charges incredibly fast! I was shocked when I realized my iPhone charger block wouldn’t have the same connections for me to charge my watch. I was able to find an adapter on Amazon pretty easily.

Much better battery life!!!
My SE watch only lasts about 10-12 hours. Sometimes it would die before I came home from work. This watch lasts all day and night. It charges much quicker as well.

Great. Enjoying it
This is the first smart watch I’ve ever owned, or even seen. I am very happy with it or use it often to track my hiking distance. The only thing I wish is I could have Google Earth on it I would like to have a satellite view of where I am hiking not just a map. It comes with a USB-C charger and I wanted to get a USB a charger as well and the cheapest ones from Amazon did not charge this watch at all. I will spend a few more dollars and get a name brand one. Over alli am very happy with this watch. Buy the clip on protective cover if you wear it daily doing physical work to protect it from scratches on the face

Athlete from garmin and love the AW
Battery life is ok for me, I get a little over a day. Love the smart watch health features and 3rd party apps. Stryd works great for running, apple run power also fantastic, etc. little more work exporting data to everywhere you may want vs garmin, but not too big of a deal with healthfit or run gap.

The Watch itself is good…
This is my second Apple Watch. Obviously I like them or I wouldn’t go for round two. My big disappointment when ordering was about band size. I need a larger one, but there was confusion around the order and I ended up with a smaller one. While I could return the whole AW order, I didn’t really want to do that. Now I’m using a new watch with an old band because I can’t just swap bands and buying one identical to the one I have is a ridiculous price. So I’m stuck. I bought an aftermarket band, but it isn’t what I truly want. To all of you ordering, be extra diligent when picking sizes. Yes, I should have returned it, but I didn’t.

LOVE THIS WATCH!
I love my Apple Watch 8!I hadn’t worn a watch in years; pretty much not since I’d gotten a smartphone. But now I find it a great tool. I use it to find my phone about 3 times per day (saves about 3 min each time). I record my meds, set alarms, track sleep modes, get more active. It’s really a great device.

works as i expected
I like the apple watch. That said, it had a breakdown on me only a month after I got it. I reset it, and it’s not had another issue, yet. But, that’s only been a couple of weeks ago, so we’ll see. I like that you pick your face, and what it shows. Your steps, sleep, ekg, etc. I was hospitalized shortly after i got it, and it kept telling me my heart rate was high. Accurate. I keep finding more things it does. I like it all around, just hope it doesn’t breakdown on me again.

Great Watch
I had a series 2 Apple Watch and its battery was not holding a charge anymore. The model 2 watch is no longer software upgradeable and the cost to change the battery in it did not seem to be the smart move with all that has changed in the watch. I love the new brighter display and the “constant on” feature of the display. The battery is still at 50% at the end of the day when I place it on the charging puck, so the battery life is great in spite of the constant on display. I still use pretty much the same apps as I did before so the upgrade was not for the apps but for the battery and display. Now if Apple only included real time glucose monitoring for diabetics, that would be nirvana and the rating would likely be 5 stars.

This watch is making a positive difference in my life.
I mainly bought this watch to support my fitness activities and it does a great job of that. The number of available functions is somewhat overwhelming, but it’s easy to find the ones that are most useful to me on a day-to-day basis. I look forward to learning how to use other functions.

Battery life sucks
I’m not sure if it’s just me, but the battery life sucks. It lasts about a day a half, and that’s with turning off at night. You really can’t use it during the day and expect to use the sleep tracking and health tracking features at night because it would need to be charged the next day. My series 3 had a much better battery life.

Convenient daily use
The device is very convenient to keep track of your daily fitness. The bluetooth function makes it a lifesaver during wintertime as u don’t have to keep taking your phone out of your pockets to make/ take a call.The series 7 came with an extra wristband, this only comes with 1 pair

Good smart watch
Purchased for a family member who is older and would like to track her heart rate, detect falls, call for help etc. It doesn’t come with a charging block. Wish we knew that when we got the watch. She’s using an iPhone 13 but when she purchased her phone, it came with the old 5W USB-A charging block and this watch’s charger is only compatible with USB-C. So far she can’t charge her watch to see if it works (died after trying to set-up). Guess she’ll have to order a charging block for an additional $20.

Excellent watch, battery life could be better.
Love the watch, it does everything I need it to do and more. Sleep tracking is excellent, heart rate monitor and blood oxygen sensor are very useful. The alarm hasn’t failed me yet.The downside? Having all of those features constantly monitoring for changes drains the battery quicker than I’d like. Note that I dimmed the brightness of the display and turned off the “always on” feature. It helped a bit but to get the most out of the battery, you’ll have to turn off the active monitoring features.Low power mode is always an option if you’re really needing to conserve battery but it turns off 99 percent of features to do this.I have a charger nearby 95 percent of the time so that minimizes the issue somewhat.I‘d give it a half star back if that was an option (so realistically a 4.5 out of 5)Some people will say get the Ultra if you need a better battery, but I couldn’t justify $800.

Use while sleeping
Love to wear this while sleeping to track sleep but also the alarm clock. It wakes me up with a gentle pulse. Watch face looks great and changes easily. This has so many more features than previous models.

Perfect!
This watch helps me keep my life together. Cliche? Maybe. But, I love that it keeps track of my burned calories, my standing time, and my exercise. I have noticed that the series 8 tends to be more accurate with my workouts as well.Apple Watch also is compatible with Peloton.

Great gift for single grandparents!
My 89 year old grandpa loves it.He always would complain about my mom’s solution to her concern for his safety, as he is a hard-of-hearing, aging but independent, recent widower — Life Alert. It was bulky, uncomfortable, frankly outdated, and $60/month!This smart watch not only saves him money, but also helps him know someone is calling with a gentle buzz of the wrist, tracks his sleep, heart rate, AND oxygen levels, AND provides him a daily momento as we setup his watch face to be a picture of him and my grandma.Could not recommend enough for your independent single grandparents!

A nice Watch, not much of an upgrade though
UPGRADES from Series 7:S8 Chip: This is basically the same as the S7 chip, with a few new integrated sensors:–Temperature Sensors: Measures wrist temp. only while sleeping, takes five days to build baseline. Currently only used to help retroactively analyze ovulation cycles after two cycles. Not predictive.–High G accelerometer and improved gyroscope: Able to detect car crashes and call for help. (Same feature available in iPhone 14)-Different Color options: (Currently no blue or green?)That’s it. Everything else is exactly the same as the Series 7. The only way I can even tell them apart is by the color, otherwise they look the same. The only benefits to upgrading to a Series 8 from a Series 7 would be the improved ovulation tracking features via nighttime wrist temperature, (though Apple warns that this is not necessarily predictive and should only be used to retroactively analyze your cycles after a couple months of use, and you would have to be wearing it at night often because this feature only uses sleep temp data), or the car-crash detection (but if you are going to get an iPhone 14, then this feature will be in your phone already). So, if you are not interested in the ovulation data (or just don’t want to wear the watch every night- because maybe you charge it at night), and you plan to get an iPhone 14, then there is no reason to upgrade to this Series 8 at all. The series 8 does come with Watch OS 9 which has some new software features, but all Apple Watches Series 4 or later can upgrade to this same OS 9. (So that is Series 4, 5, 6, and 7, and SE, all support upgrading to Watch OS 9)So basically, it is hard to recommend getting this Watch Series 8. If you can live without the wrist temp ovulation analysis and car crash detection in the watch, then I would suggest sticking with Series 7. Even Series 6 isn’t that different in terms of performance, it and will still support Watch OS 9. If you are buying your first Apple Watch, I would still suggest getting the less expensive Series 7. Or you could also look into the new SE 2, which is about $150 less expensive than this Series 8, but lacks several other features like the Always-On-Display, ECG, blood oxygen and IP6X rating.

Get an Apple Watch support a good cause
I’m happy with this Apple Watch- it came brand new even though it didn’t have the original plastic wrapping on their outside box, it still had the sealed tapes. It was easy to set up and also an easy learning curve for use. The screen is perfect! My only complaint is with Apple for not proving a USB-C plug for the USB-C cord. I’m reluctantly using my iBook plug to charge the watch until i can get a new plug. This should be explained in the numerous description information and the photos. Yeah, it shows the cord- who would think it didn’t come with the plug?I’m thrilled also that Apple partnered up with Product Red so that i could support a cause that I have a huge respect for- that of preventing HIV and AIDS. I had a family member die of AIDS and if the research and prevention happening now had happened in the early 90s then she might not have died from a tainted blood transfusion and could’ve afforded the medication protocol. So for me- this watch is not only my favorite color, but also a purchase to support a cause I feel strongly about. Product Red also helps solve Poverty, and Health Care throughout the world.

Apple Watch 8
I purchased the new Apple Watch 8 for my wife as an anniversary gift. She loves anything and everything apple, and I myself prefer other options.As for a review, I am comparing the Apple Watch 8 to my Garmin Venu 2.Many of the added and new features of Apple’s newest watch, like SOS and biometrics monitoring, have been a staple in their competitors’ products for a while now.Comparing the responsiveness of the Series 8 to the Venu 2 is quite a big leap, as the Series 8 has a faster chip and can perform many tasks, including video animations like Toy Story characters running around the screen with phenomenal clarity and resolution, which is one thing it does that my Garmin does not.Comparing the reliability, however, does show how Apple is lacking in the functionality of its watch. To start, the GPS signal in the Garmin is better than the Series 8 when out in the wilderness or anywhere where the signal may not be as great, whereas the Series 8 seems to lack a proper signal. As well as my Garmin has more accurate biometrics reading when comparing our vitals being monitored with a pulse oximetry device.Overall the build quality seems comparable to my Garmin, as both have been plunged into deep enough water, both in the ocean and in 10′ swimming pools. Neither has shown any water damage since. For impact damage, the Apple watch seems to be more resilient as my Venu 2 has a few dings here and there for it hitting desks, and normal wear and tear, yet the Apple Watch still looks as good as it did out of the box.Overall, the Apple Watch 8 is a great product for someone who likes to stay in the Apple ecosystem.

Love it except Siri is a little over-reactive
I love my watch. Very accurate tracking and everything is easily accessible. I wish the health, fitness, and watch apps were better integrated so that you didn’t have to switch between the three of them to see all of your data in detail, but it’s not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. My only issue is that Siri sometimes thinks I am talking to my watch and writes/sends text messages without me meaning to. I need to play with the settings more to see if that is fixable.

Best smartwatch I’ve ever owned
I thought the original Apple Watches were great, and then felt like they were just fine tuning previous versions and calling it something new for each series. This is light years ahead of where we were with the series 7. The display is easier to read, the voice to text feature makes less errors than my phone, and the sleep tracking is spot on; so good that I know how long it takes me to get out of bed in the middle of the night to concede to the obvious fact that I need to pee!This is great!

I got this as a safety security. I live alone and have no desire for one of those neck alarms. This is wonderful! I slammed the chest freezer door shut and it immediately contacted me, asking if I had fallen. I had to reply 3 times, assuming my welfare. This is fabulous. I know it’s pricey, but worth it!
