Before getting this watch, I thought about getting a Fitbit because I mainly wanted it for health/fitness. After doing some research, I decided on this since it had more features. The price is high, but I wear it constantly. The only time I don’t wear it is when it’s charging, when showering, or when swimming. It monitors my heart rate, sleep, activity, and more. I love the sleek look of it, and I honestly feel naked without it, which I never thought would happen. I don’t have the one with data, and I haven’t regretted that decision at all. I can still see full texts, Facebook messages, and phone calls on my watch, and I can reply to the messages from there. I really like that if I’m in a place where my phone is on silent, my watch will vibrate if I get a call or text and no one would know except for me.
The only downside, which is common in Apple products, is the battery life. My husband has a Samsung Gear S3 watch and his can last on average 3-4 days, where I have to charge mine daily. It could probably last into the second day, but it would be really low in the red. However, to combat this I’ve made it a habit to charge my watch while I’m showering then charge it at the end of the day after I’ve reached my activity goals and before going to bed. I’ve also turned off the background app refresh and some of the unnecessary app notifications, and that helped. I wouldn’t say the battery life is an inconvenience. It’s more of just figuring out convenient times to charge it.

Not much room for improvement!
Apple Watch series 4 leaves little room for improvement. This Apple Watch can hold an amazing amount of apps. On top of this it of course takes or makes phone calls, sends and receives text messages including photos received. It has a function for hand writing due to difficulty typing on a small screen, which I like better than typing.It can be worn in water to track your exercise or keep you in touch. It connects to your phone easily(of course check which phones it can connect with before purchase...It would not connect to my IPhone 6plus so I purchased the iPhone 7. It is unclear if the 6 plus did not work because it was sold as refurbished and had many glitches or if it is not compatable.Having the watch makes it more convenient when tracking my steps. Tracking exercise has never been easier. There are many Apple Health app exercises from workouts to indoor or outdoor walks and runs, plus other options like swimming, hiking, elliptical, rower, stair stepper, high intensity interval training, yoga, or bicycling.The watch charges fully with amazing speed. The battery lasts all day while being used sometimes as a phone, often as text and message alerts including all day exercise updates.It has many screen options that are easy to switch between depending on what you like on your home screen(time, date, sunrise/set, temperature, time only, fitness and time).It’s also nice that there are many color options and the flimsy case is very useful and necessary. I recommend wearing the watch inward to avoid scraping the screen against things like doorways.There is little to improve with this series. If they can extend the battery life further, that would be great, but not necessary for most people. It lasts a full day being used often.
