I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

In general, the watch is just super. I have been using equipment from this manufacturer for a very long time. Of course, I understand that there are cheaper options, and in some cases even the same functions (+/-). I will advise you to buy, especially if you love this company and the equipment it produces. As I said, in combination with other Apple devices, everything will work to the limit of its capabilities. In another case, if you, for example, use a phone on an operating system of a…

Pros
  • - The first thing I would like to pay attention to is the appearance, it is simply cosmic. In principle, when you take Apple watches, and not only them, you immediately get a feeling of quality and prestige. There is a desire to buy a product. In this, Apple masters are able to turn on the Wishlist of the consumer. - Convenience also plays an important role and this is the second thing you immediately notice when using a watch. They sit on the hand like cast ones, the hand quickly gets used to them (especially if you switched after the classic ones, like me). And for the whole day of socks, by the evening the hand does not get tired and does not numb. Can be worn for a very long time and there will be no discomfort. - In terms of functions, too, a plus. On the clock, you can do many different tasks that simplify the life and use of the phone, headphones and other equipment. The main and most useful of them: 1. if you play sports or your life is very active, then this watch has a huge number of opportunities for counting calories, how many steps you took, how many floors you climbed, how many hours you warmed up and did exercises. there are achievements and the watch constantly reminds you to move and walk. 2. It is convenient to switch music on your phone, headphones and other devices, just by raising your hand. 3. Well, notifications, all messages and calls are sent to the watch, you don’t need to take your phone out of your pocket once again to see what’s there. Super comfortable and you get used instantly. 4. You can quickly view weather information, sports scores, news and much more. 5. I often use the Shazam application, which allows you to find out what song is playing by simply raising your hand and pressing one button. - The Apple ecosystem. Of course, this will work best with gadgets from the same company (phone, headphones, poppy beech, tablet, etc.). Therefore, in combination with this, everything becomes much more pleasant to use. - It's wildly convenient to pay for purchases in the store, just by bringing your hand to the terminal. Just be careful, if you come somewhere in the outback, people may not understand a little :)
Cons
  • - Of course, the price, it can bite for someone. But this is not the highest price tag. If you take it with a built-in SIM card, it will cost even more, about 50k. Although in 2022 it still doesn’t make much sense to take such. Well, Apple is Apple, that explains it all. - The screen starts to catch small scratches after a while. For me, this is very uncomfortable. I solved the problem with a protective film, and I thought that it would spoil the appearance, but in fact you can’t say that something is pasted. - The operating time is perhaps the biggest drawback of this watch. With normal average use, the watch barely survives until the end of the second day, or even turns off completely. I think in the future this indicator will only worsen due to battery wear. - For me, it's a little unclear why you can't turn on the music directly on the watch itself. This can be done when, for example, I used Sh*am to find out what song is playing. You can play and then once. This, of course, is not a particularly necessary function, but technically it can be implemented, as well as the second one, which I will discuss below. - Microphone and voice message recording. Recording a message from dictation is not very convenient. It is necessary to clearly pronounce each word, and because of this, the watch constantly confuses words, and sometimes does not write down the right one. You have to either get the phone, or write down several times. Runs out a little. The voice recording function can be implemented safely, since it is possible to call a subscriber from a notebook, so why not add voice messages. Perhaps this is of course the same thing in the developers of the applications themselves. For some reason, not all manufacturers release applications, and most importantly, good applications for Apple watches. At the time of writing this review, the voice messaging feature is only available in Te*am. I would like to see others as well.

Impressions from the purchase are good, buy.

Stylish and fashionable toy, a good way to show people that you are "in trend". If you are an Apple user, this is your option. The watch interacts perfectly with the company's ecosystem. You will really begin to pick up the phone less often, which will positively affect its charge. With the task of displaying notifications and responding to them, the watch copes with "Hurrah", which really makes life a little more convenient, especially when everything happens "on the run" I can recommend…

Pros
  • Universal design - looks equally good in sportswear and business, especially if you buy the appropriate straps. Fortunately, now there are a lot of them (thongs), both from Uncle Liao for 100, and from Erme for 30 thousand, here your choice will be limited solely by aesthetic preferences and the thickness of the wallet. Loud speaker - talking by the clock next to a busy road turned out to be very comfortable (you hear the interlocutor, the interlocutor hears you). Sensitive microphone - when talking through the clock, the interlocutor hears you well, the voice assistant reacts 9 out of 10 cases and correctly understands commands Interaction with the Apple ecosystem - MacBook does not require a password if the watch is on hand and other small things like the Health app, the gadget is deeply embedded in Apple's systems. Tactile sensations - the watch is pleasant to touch, the vibration from notifications is not felt as a vibration, but as a light touch. Enough interesting Working time - I know that this is not a record for a smart watch, but a good result for an Apple Watch. I live for about 3 days, with active use on the second day by the evening there are still 15-20 percent left. Sports - they themselves understand when you are running or when you are on a walk and offer to record it as a workout, in case you yourself forgot to turn on the training mode. Smart home - If you own smart gadgets that support HomeKit, then you can control your smart home right from your watch. Fashion - These watches are worn by both those who can afford Rolex and ordinary students, in this regard, one cannot fail to note their versatility. Watches really like people and attract attention.
Cons
  • Glass - in the Aluminum version it is absolutely not resistant to scratches. In my case, it was enough to comb through the rough wall once with my hand to leave deep scratches on the clock, which are very noticeable. Screen replacement costs almost like a new watch, the glass is not changed yet. If you are going to buy this watch, immediately buy a neat film or protective glass for it. Music Control - I may not have figured it out, but in my opinion you can not control the Apple Music played on the phone using the watch. When choosing a song through the watch, they ask you to connect wireless headphones to them, and not just play songs on your phone. Price - they do not cost 35 thousand, well, nothing. I took it solely for reasons - "just because I want to." If you are looking for value for money - I think you should look at other options.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I recommend to buy, whether it is worth switching from the 3rd version is a moot point from version 2 and earlier it is definitely worth switching

Pros
  • - work speed - screen quality - you can listen to music from airpods without an iPhone nearby -Apple Pay - moisture protection -price in the secondary market (I sold the 3rd version for 16,500 for ebay, added 9,000 and bought the latest generation also new ones)
Cons
  • -price, bought in July for 25,000 in March 2022 - switched from the 3rd version and there was no wow effect, which was when buying the 3rd version

It was a reasonable purchase, I will order more.

I have never used a watch, but at work, it is an indispensable assistant when you can not take the phone. Yes, the price is too high, I agree with many, but the measurement accuracy, excellent synchronization with the phone are at the highest level. A big minus is the battery, it doesn’t hold well, you have to charge it often. Therefore, if you do not need additional notifications and pedometer, consider whether they are worth the price)

Pros
  • Stylish, comfortable
Cons
  • Price and battery

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

Its pros: The best smart watch for today. Design, packaging, usability, data accuracy, the number of applications and various "chips". Has some cons The battery, of course, does not hold much, but this is a fact, and with such an abundance of functionality, it cannot be otherwise.

Perfect product for any user!

Apple claims that everything about the watch is beautiful and comfortable, but after five months of use, the display glass has developed deep scratches in all of the watch's corners. These scratches are so deep that you can pry them open with your fingernails. Everything else about the watch is beautiful and comfortable. The clothing and the payment terminals both contributed to the scratches. I am asked a lot of questions regarding the time of work; personally, when I wear my watch from 5:30…

Pros
  • -Quality in both the materials used and the craftsmanship -Excellent presentation -Fast work, response, and reflexes to the controls -An attractive and functional design -A multitude of features that make it unnecessary to get out your smartphone (management of the player, viewing messages .)
Cons
  • -Price -Price -Price -Get ready to polish the GENTLE display glass in three months. -Price -Price -Price -Price

My thoughts are conflicted; on the one hand, it looks like a gorgeous and intriguing piece of technology, but on the other, I'm not entirely certain that it's worth the money. You could purchase a third version, but chances are you wouldn't be able to tell much of a difference between them. PS. The electrocardiogram does not function in the 2022, so I have no idea what the primary benefit of having four hours rather than three is (I didn't utilize them). Pros: 1. Screen, 2. a heart rate monitor

Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

The sleep tracking is both the most peculiar and the easiest to explain aspect. The Health application on the iPhone includes a sleep analysis feature. If you believed that purchasing a watch would allow you to determine the length of your sleep and provide you a more accurate reading of the amount of time spent in bed, you were wrong. Get ready to be let down, since absolutely nothing will alter. The clock makes no attempt to evaluate the quality of your slumber in any manner. The Apple Watch…

Pros
  • A lot has been written about virtues, so I’m unlikely to write something new. In general, if we examine them specifically as smart watches, and not as fitness trackers, then I seriously doubt that you will be able to discover anything that is superior to them. The design, craftsmanship, and integration of the system are all incredible. Similar to everything that apple produces. Someone is responsible for writing the price with minus signs. Let's be honest. They are not inexpensive by any stretch of the imagination, but compare the quality of their performance to that of the competition. Anything that is comparable in quality and functionality will cost around the same as, or perhaps more than, what you are currently paying. Consider any one of the Garmin models. The vast majority of them are trinkets made of plastic. Yet a well-made model will run you a fair amount more money than a single apple.
Cons
  • In my opinion, there are no glaring areas that need improvement. The comments include a variety of topics, including those concerning certain features.

A good product at a good price, I advise you to try it.

I've always been skeptical about smart watches, but I recently decided to purchase one for use in sports as an alternative to traditional sports watches, which are typically cumbersome, uncomfortable, and do not offer any advantages in day-to-day life (I'm referring to features such as notifications, contactless payments, calls, music, etc.). I was always skeptical about smart watches, but I recently decided to purchase one for use in sports. In addition, I thought about purchasing a Garmin…

Pros
  • Design, interface, taptik, straps
Cons
  • a battery, a GPS device, and a heart rate monitor

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

I really didn't want to spend the money on an Apple Watch smart watch, but as you well know, you can't truly appreciate something until you give it a shot. After the Apple Watch S4 was out, I made the decision to purchase it and do not have any regrets about doing so. Apple correctly markets this product as a "device for voice and data transmission," which is its primary function. The display of the current time is not this device's primary purpose. To begin, it acts as an incentive to…

Pros
  • Design that puts thought into its utility. Huge screen. If you're wearing an Apple Watch, your Mac will be able to detect your presence and instantly log you in whenever you get close to it. The ability to rapidly change the strap while also changing the style of the watch itself is whether it is made of leather, Milanese loop, leather, or silicone (for sports) (business).
Cons
  • Not

I am very happy with this purchase, I will advise everyone!

Great stylish watch for your money! Universal - with them for a business meeting and in the gym, in the pool and travel! They really motivate you to go in for sports and set new records (at least to close the rings).

Pros
  • Quality, functionality, appearance, comfortable, stylish 👍
Cons
  • Screen scratches quickly

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

There are too many unnecessary bells and whistles in the watch for me. They are tailored for athletes and athletes and therefore unnecessarily expensive. Of all the physical education goodies, a pedometer with a view of the distance traveled is enough for me. Everything. I don't need an ECG, which is blocked anyway, GPS, pulse. Yes, I have a slightly more advanced version with a built-in e-sim card. It was because of her that I actually bought them, I needed a wrist phone and it turned out that

Pros
  • This watch has everything I need and is perfectly crafted on the outside. They are easy to use - quick access on the watch screen to the voice recorder, stopwatch, timer, phone (and contact list), alarm clocks. This is what I need. Online access can be configured: someone does not need a timer, you can install a player for example. Everyone can customize the list for themselves. Water protection is also good, although those who dismantled them do not advise swimming in them on the forums. Very good sound from the watch, if you receive a telephone signal on the built-in speaker, the sound is voluminous and clear, the effect of presence.
Cons
  • First of all, I don’t like that the watch is inconvenient to use without an iPhone. You can’t even turn them on without an iPhone after purchase. Those. you can use someone's iPhone to turn it on, but then, in case of resetting the settings, you will have to bow to the owners of iPhones. I had to buy an iPhone for the watch too . A few months later it turned out that the watch screen reacts to wet clothes. You wash your hands and then you find that the flashlight has turned on and the battery has landed well. At the same time, sometimes it reacts badly to finger touches.

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

I swim in my watch all the time. Measures pools clearly. Satisfied for hours. I didn’t take version 5, because. I don't see much of a difference! I'm waiting for version 6. Pros below: Battery life. Heart rate monitor accuracy. Payment NFS! In the subway by the hour Music can be switched from the watch and volume can be adjusted You can answer the call without taking out the phone (for example, when you wash the dishes) Some cons: The screen is definitely scratched. Siri is dumb. There are no…

I didn’t want to buy an Apple Watch smart watch, but as you know, if you don’t try, you won’t appreciate it. With the release of the Apple Watch S4, I decided to buy and did not regret it. Apple positions this device as a "device for voice and data transmission" and rightly so. Time is not the main function of this gadget. First of all, it is a motivator for playing sports and controlling your mobility, and therefore health. Operating experience shows that I began to communicate less with the…

Pros
  • Thoughtful design, functionality. Big screen. If you're wearing an Apple Watch, your Mac can recognize that you're nearby and sign you in automatically. The ability to quickly change the strap while changing the style of the watch itself is silicone or nylon (sports), Milanese loop or leather (business).
Cons
  • Not

There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

Bought to try "take root" or not "take root". Been with them for 6 months. The watch will not completely replace the smartphone, unless all your interaction with the smartphone is the contemplation of its screen. On the watch, all responses to messages (which you can really use adequately) are voice input. The clock does not always translate the voice into the correct set of letters. Siri can live its own life - it takes a long time to process a command, to say that I didn’t understand, to say…

Pros
  • + informative display with many widgets + stylish + nice-heavy + stable work + allow you to look at the smartphone screen less + convenient voice control (as a functional) + comfortable strap + in winter you can answer a call without taking out your phone
Cons
  • - scratchable display (it is enough to accidentally hit something hard) - with active use, one full charge is enough for 1.5 days - Siri can understand your voice commands in any way it wants - few applications

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

The strangest and most easily described is the sleep tracking. On the iPhone, the Health program has a sleep analysis. If you thought that by buying a watch, you can find out the time of sleep, and the time in bed will be more accurate. Get ready to be disappointed, nothing will change. The clock does not analyze your sleep in any way. Every second Chinese tracker can do this, but the Apple Watch does not. Why don't I see this as a definite disadvantage? Very simple. Do you really need…

Pros
  • A lot has been written about virtues, so I’m unlikely to write something new. In general, if we consider them specifically as a smart watch, and not a fitness tracker, then I doubt that you can find something better. Design, workmanship and system integration are phenomenal. Like everything apple makes. Someone writes the price in minuses. Let's be honest. They are certainly not cheap, but compare the quality of performance with competitors. Anything that is comparable in quality and functionality will cost about the same, or more. Look at any Garmin model. Most of them are plastic trinkets. And well-made models are significantly more expensive than an apple.
Cons
  • There are no obvious shortcomings, in my opinion. There are several features about which in the comments.

All is well, liked the product, didn't buy it for nothing.

I was always skeptical about smart watches, but I decided to buy them for sports, as an alternative to sports watches, which are mostly bulky, miserable and do not carry any benefit in everyday life (I'm talking about notifications, contactless payments, calls, music, etc.). I also considered Garmin Fenix, Polar Vantage V and Apple Watch 4. The choice fell in the direction of AW4 because of their versatility. I wore them for about a year, everything is fine, comfortable, the straps are fire…

I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

To be honest, the watch is not such a need to buy . Yes, they are cool, but I use them mainly as a watch and it’s convenient to watch the weather, well, you won’t miss calls and SMS. If anyone thinks it's worth taking them or not, think carefully for what purposes . It's better to take a tablet for this money or something else. Pros: 1. Stylish watch. 2. Replaceable strap. 3. Light, not felt on the hand. 4. You can answer by the clock and do not miss SMS and calls when the phone is not around…

Not worth the money, I will not advise this product.

Although I'm happy with the iPhone, it would be better if I replaced it with a Samsung and bought a watch for it (and I wanted to buy a watch from a Korean manufacturer, but the iPhone does not support them). Apple Watch is an extremely raw product, I can’t even believe that this watch is already so many years old, it feels like they were released last year and are still struggling with childhood diseases.

Pros
  • - The activity ring was a pleasant surprise, now I move more trying to close it every day; - Protection against water could not be tested during use, but it seems like it is more solid than that of competitors.
Cons
  • Absolutely everything for which I bought this watch does not work: - Listening to music through a third-party application (not Apple Music) is implemented terribly. You listen to music through headphones, you decide to go in to buy a shavukha and a smoothie at the station, you put it on pause on the clock, after 5 minutes you look at the clock, and it shows an empty playlist, you have to climb for the phone; - No support for wired headphones without a microphone. If they call you, then you can’t speak into the clock, but listen into the headphones, either you speak and listen from the clock, or you speak into the phone and listen from the headphones. I had to replace my Sennheisers with AirPods (which, by the way, I never regretted); - No support for third-party calling applications. Specifically, in my case, it was not possible to talk through Discord by the clock, only accept the call and talk on the phone; - There is no standard sleep monitoring program, an application that does a complete sleep analysis, like a standard Chinese bracelet for $ 20, costs almost 3,000 per year. Free analogues do not distinguish between all phases of sleep; - No choice of watch face designs. This may seem like a far-fetched problem, I thought so before reading the reviews, only I need a digital clock showing seconds. And the watch has only one such watch face with a terrible design, which does not fit all the applications I need; - Since. I have a lot of sedentary work, the warm-up signal once an hour was also a necessary feature. This function reminds of itself even at night when you sleep. And it is IMPOSSIBLE to turn it off for a certain time! Just turn it off completely, or set the activity time on the phone, but then you will not hear calls or any other messages at this time either; - Low battery alarm and vibration will happily wake you up in the middle of the night. Well, why couldn't we implement a sleep detector and automatically turn off unnecessary unimportant signals at this time? After all, third-party applications on the watch can automatically determine when you sleep.
