Apple Watch Series 5 – Nice watch – shame about the battery !

I purchased this watch because of the health monotoring it offers. What i did not realise was that it will only work with an apple watch.

I use this watch everyday at the gym, there has been no discolouration even after having a spa in chlorine after a workout. Would highly recommend if you have the dish. You won’t look back in regret. Great for casual and business use. Sophisticated and swarve with all the usual bells and whistles you get with an apple watch. The series 5 is u regrettably the best thing since slice bread. From the regular breathing, to standing and the constant reminder to be active. The exercise apps which do cost a few quid like ‘intervals pro’ turns your workout into a challenge which pushes you to your limit. Try it, i bet you don’t send it back.

Great bit of kit if you’re looking for a fitness tracker. Cellular means i am contactable in an emergency without carrying a phone. A shame that lots of 3rd party apps don’t work (whatsapp, spotify to name a few). But if you don’t mind using imessage and apple music it’s pretty perfect. I thought i was getting a mini iphone for my wrist. Not quite, but as i say, it’s a great fitness tracker. When running for example it tracks distance, route, steps, cadence, heart rate and recovery among others. Works well with other fitness apps.

Excellent when you do anything be careful go slow mine dialled 999 because i was in a rushed.

Love this watch, the always on display is a game changer for me. Now instead of wiggling my arm about in order to see the time, a quick glance and it’s there. The performance is way better than the series 2 this replaced so am really noticing a difference. Allmy apple watch straps fit perfectly. Loads of fitness functionality that works really well.

A watch for every situation;sport,smart events,dinners,dates. Few things new from the previous generation that make the watch unique. I’m a big fun of and i highly recommend the shop because it worth it.

Used predominantly as a fitness watch, love the ecg feature, and the prompts to beat your own records, love the idea you can compete with friends on their watches.

I am loving this – my daughter had one and told me i would love it – i bought it unsure if whether i really would but have to say, it’s amazing – i can even answer a phone call when my phone is in another room. . Brilliant technology, love it. Counting steps, monitoring heart beat, receiving my emails and whatsapp messages. This is a must for busy people on the go.

This is my first apple watch. I`m still playing with it but hugely impressed so far.

Brought this for my husband he loves it, batter lasts better than the 1st series and having the bigger screen makes it easier to read or compose messages.

I previously had the first model apple watch. Although functional, it’s responsiveness wasn’t the best. Also, due to an update, the minimum requirement for the microsoft outlook application changed to watchos v6. As my old watch wouldn’t update past v4. X this rendered my business emails and meeting reminders dead in the water. I decided an upgrade was in order. After much deliberation, i went for the apple watch v5. I also went for the stainless steel case and milanese loop. I also decided that the cellular model would be a benefit. The difference is day and night from the old watch.

I upgraded from an s3 gps and i love it. The always on display makes a big difference to using it as an everyday watch plus the 5s bigger display is so much clearer. I also love the lte option, i haven’t used it much yet but i’m increasingly leaving home without my phone, thereby cutting down on screen time but still being contactable. Making calls is as clear as a phone plus you can stream or play music too. Battery isn’t bad, with minimal use i still have 50% left at the end of the day, using phone reduces this a bit as does streaming, which is the biggest drain, but so far the lowest i’ve had is 14% by bedtime. All in all a worthy upgrade, i’m very happy.

The new series 5 ️is fantastic , personally upgraded from series 2 which made the upgrade a big leap. The model is stunning , professional in any setting with the metal strap , change to a apple sports black strap for swimming or running. The screen is brighter – much better always on mode. High quality feel in the steel version. Here are the specifications for the Apple Watch Series 5:

  • GPS + Cellular (Supported providers: EE, O2 and Vodafone)
  • Always-On Retina display
  • 30% larger screen
  • Swimproof
  • ECG app
  • Electrical and optical heart sensors
  • Built-in compass
  • Elevation
  • Emergency SOS
  • International Emergency Calling

I love my new apple watch series 5. I love it with a white strap. It works really well just like series 2 and with a few extra apps. I do find the charge doesn’t last as long as my other watch but it’s not a problem if you get into habit of charging it every night. I love the fact you can still see the time when the face goes dark. It’s good wouldn’t be without it.

The wife is over the moon with this watch.

Nice watch very pricey battery life could be better returned due to high price opted for the series 4 cheaper and better battery lief.

Absolutely love my apple watch. Worth every pennyi had a fitbit which was great but no comparison now to this. It does everything i want it to, though miss competing with steps with my fitbit friends and the sleep analysis. I decided on the cellular and again, i’m so glad i did. I’m able to see messages, answer calls and go out for my walks or running without having to drag my iphone 8 plus. It took a while to sort out everything, how to use etc. And that’s only because i’m not the smartest on tech. Nothing beats the quality of apple. Even the packaging is real quality. Small drawback is the battery life but now i’ve got used to it and not playing with it every minute since i got it 3 days ago, it’s lasting longer.

Great when your phone isn’t to hand or you don’t want to take it with you. Great features and very customisable. Everything works really well and has some great health monitoring features.

I love my apple watch series 5gps +cellular the size and the look on it is just great .

Reviews from purchasers :

  • You can take calls on it

  • Nice watch – shame about the battery !

  • A new age in health and time management

Great watch, never complaint .

Amazing product, shame about the battery life in this latest series with the always on display.

Wow wow best product i have purchased for a very long time.

Great service excellent product.

Great watch lots of apps – slightly annoying that have to pay extra for cellular each month but useful to not have to take phone out. Battery life as described but annoying as have to find a regular time to charge it – is first thing in morning if you want to track sleep.

I waited a long time before i took the plunge, but glad i did does everthing i wanted and more.

Indispensable item in my life but major floor that the screen is so far out (yes i’m clumsy) but this is my third series 5 watch as i keep buying a new one when i scratch the screen. (i’m taking out insurance this time).

The watch series 5 is a great gadget but unfortunately it is let down by it’s poor battery life. Considering it has sensors monitoring your every move and should be monitoring your sleep patterns but this is not possible as it has to be charged every night.

Only apart battery life , need to charge every day.

When i got my apple watch i wasn’t sure what to expect. It is a good watch with nearly all the features a iphone has. But the battery life is really disappointing and i think it is overpriced. If i had my time again i would buy a series 3 apple watch. A lot cheaper and basically the same.

Bought this for my wife and she is over the moon with this.

YONMIG Smart Watch : Excellent easy to set up

Very nice smart watch that connected to my ios 13 iphone 8 with no problems, easily displays txt messages and incoming calls, love howlong the strap is, as most smart watches have a very short strap this is definitely made for the bigger wrist screen is bright and touch is responsive. Seems well made and strong, has many faces to choose from inc an analog watch face, watch takes about 1 to 2 hrs to charge buts lasts 4 to 7 days depending on how much your using it for calls and txts , great watch love it . The smart watch arrived quickly (was ordered via prime) and was neatly packaged in a little box. The watch must be charged before use in order to activate it – i was a bit confused about how the charger worked, but once i got there, it was easy. It’s like a magnet at the back of the watch, and the charger sticks – which was quite interesting and was easier than faffing around with a charger port in such a small devicei’ve used many fitness trackers in the past, notably fitbits (which...

INIUPO Kids Smartwatch : A++++++

My 6 year old son loves this watch. Charging and adding music is so simple. The battery holds its charge brilliantly for days. The option to add 10 contacts is great as well. The strap is very soft and comfortable to wear. I bought the gifgaf 2g sim card and it works perfectly. Nought for my son and he absolutely like it. The strap is soft and the screen is very clear. Battery life is good but he keeps fiddling with watch so it drains the battery a bit early. Apart from that, happy with the purchase.
