    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’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!

    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.
