HappyHolidays Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have DS 18 and DD16 and thinking about apple watches for them. I saw some good deals (so I think) on the Series 1 for BF. Any major differences between the 1,2& 3? I know I don’t want to pay any more on my cell bill so won’t go for the Cellular Series 3. Just has to spend $180 on a Series 1 if too outdated. Thank you!

sas377 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have a 1 and it’s fine/not outdated. The 2 has the GPS built in for tracking sans phone and is water resistant. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDEAL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfgirl Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have the 2. I like it, but had it not been a gift I would never have bought it for myself. I wish the battery life was longer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikkilugi Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have the Series 2 and I love it. I did buy it for myself (as a gift from DH last Christmas) and I love the functionality of it. I can take calls on it when my phone is not handy. I can answer texts on it. These are 2 very important features for me since I don't always have my phone on me. The connection distance is great and if I am on a known wi-fi - my watch will even connect at work if I forgot my phone at home. It doesn't all the time but it has happened and it is freaky. I do wish the battery life was longer but I just take it off every night and put it on the charger and it doesn't seem to be a problem for me.

freesia39 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I recommend getting at least a 2, for the GPS and water resistance (ability to swim with it on) features. The Series 1 is pretty basic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanyon71 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 My wife has the Series 1 and loves it. Thinking about upgrading her to the Series 3 this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyHolidays Posted November 14, 2017 Author Share Posted November 14, 2017 Thanks everyone. I was thinking my college sign might find it useful to get messages on his watch and not have to get his phone out all the time. I do like that the 2 and 3 would let you shower and swim with it. That would be a plus. My daughter runs track and my son does go to the gym at school so I thought they may like some of those features too. Thanks everyone!

nirvana4all Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 My opinion since you asked. People look stupid trying to read email on their wrist with a massive oversized watch and already spend too much time on their phone connected to the net, paying way way to much for an apple branded version of something people dont need in the first place is a wonderfully executed marketing campaign to part people from their $ and apple is doing a great job selling it on folks.Since you asked.
