![Apple Watch Series 7 [GPS 41mm] Smart Watch w/Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Band. Fitness Tracker, Blood Oxygen & ECG Apps, Always-On Retina Display, Water Resistant](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71gg8mPlAuL.__AC_SY445_SX342_QL70_ML2_.jpg)
My fitness tracker was about 7 years old, and they didn't make that one anymore. And it was getting flaky. So it was time for a new watch!
I went for the 41mm smaller one, because I do have smaller wrists, and I don't like a large clunky watch. This one is perfectly sized for me. I would have liked the bigger screen, but I wouldn't have wanted to wear it, so this was the one.
Setup took longer than I expected because I had to update my iPhone to get things to work. Then setup of the watch also took quite a while. After setting it up, I wasn't that impressed. Yes, it was comfortable, but it seemed like just a watch. That only lasted a day or two. Now I just love this thing.
I definitely messed around with it for a few days until I got it set up like I wanted it. It took me a while to find a face that felt natural, along with the "complications" on it I liked. Just FYI: Complications are what apple calls the little widgets available right from the watch face. Stuff like weather, times, the fitness app... And once you get them how you want to work with them, they are handy.
I turned on all the sleep tracking, and I liked that. It told me my respiration rate and heart rate throughout the night. And it told me when I fell asleep and woke up. Overall I like the implementation of it.
Chasing the rings - Hey, this was cool. I setup the fitness goals on the watch, and one day I just took a walk in the woods. 10 minutes in my watch buzzed and said "Hey, it looks like you're working out" and asked me what I was doing. It seemed to know I was walking, and was asking if it was indoors or outdoors. I responded and continued my walk in the woods. At the end of my walk the watch gave me all the statistics of it, like my heartbeat rate, how far I walked, how long I was walking, really just the details. I'm a bit of a nerd, and I thought it was awesome. I also closed my green ring for the day. I like it.
It's an expensive watch, but it is also a very cool watch. So far I like it a lot.
Durability - ? My last watch lasted 7 years. Will this one? I don't know. Only time can tell that. So at some point in the future I will update this review if I learn the answer one way or the other.

It verbally said “Ok” at climax
I like the blood oxygen sensor. Weight is perfect and the remote camera feature makes vlogging easy from the iPhone. Size is sleek as well, just wish there were more shape options as opposed to the basic ‘rectangle’ all apple watches are made as.I left it on my wrist during a moment of intimacy, however, and (what must have been) the Siri feature audibly said “okay” at the moment of climax. Now I don’t personally mind the evaluation, as with the fitness app, I have personal goals (standards) to meet. But I feel that just an “okay” during that particular session was a bit overly critical given the duration and positions taken to achieve this point. Hopefully Apple can improve upon these ‘evaluations’ or just stick with calorie counting/exercise duration in these situations.Anyways, it’s been a solid device overall.
