We have been an Apple family for many many years and we've come to the point where we are not willing to accept upgraded iPhones or products that are released with different power adapters rending any previous ones incompatible along with their continued expensive accessories. Our most recent purchase in the Apple Watch was the clincher for us. Receiving a product with no charger and therefore rendering the product incomplete really highlights Apple's arrogance and how out of touch they are with customer centric service. We will be changing our phones and apple products as they come up for replacement. It's not ok Apple to be this way. Customers lost.

The gps on the workout is extremely hit and miss.should’ve gone with another option.

Display is beautiful and it's a nice wrist phone
For runners it's not accurate at distance- mine's short 10% every run. After several calls to Apple, they said it was a problem which may be fixed one day
The exercise rings will get you in
I like the Apple 7 but I suggest it's not for keen runners.

I purchased an Apple Watch Series 7 Aluminium 41MM GPS so I can text and talk with this using my Mobile Phone and track my steps/sleep at night and monitor my heart rate. It also much chargers faster and the battery last longer than the Apple Watch Series 5.
Purchased in at Apple Online store for $500.

Know better, choose better.
I upgraded from a Series 2 that I used for 5 years. I am really happy with the overall quality as well as the larger screen face and upgraded health features such as the ecg. There was no noticeable improvement in the battery life so it needs to be charged every day. I usually do this overnight so it is not a big deal. The stainless steel is more expensive but I think it looks better than the aluminium. It is hard to find a good deal/sales but ended up getting it from Amazon for the quick delivery.
Purchased in at Amazon for $1,065.

Apple Series 7 my first week and Fitbit Sense Comparison
Firstly I bought this Watch to make calls and expected it to be a top fitness Watch for the price.
Pros: The face 45mm is very large and great for reading texts, WhatsApp and other information. The Sense though has a great screen too and quite readable.
Call quality: A 6/10. Calls are often very faint but Siri is a lot louder so maybe an update can fix it? The Sense can only receive calls but as it is much smaller the sound is worse. So Apple Watch can be used for calls but could be louder. Apple wins here.
As a fitness watch: I have been ...
Read morevery surprised how bad the Apple Watch is as fitness watch compared to the Fitbit Sense. The Fitbit has live tracking available on one screen whereas the Apple will give heart readings at 6-10 minutes intervals and I even got warnings of a high heart rate 8 minutes after the event. The Fitbit flashes a warning live. Same with steps etc. I do like the on demand oxygen reader on the Apple which the Sense does not have. Also, the breathing exercises and meditation. I also like the SOS call feature as it puts emergency services on my wrist. Battery life is 3 days with the Sense and 1 day with Apple. I still wear the Apple because it has some handy things like emergency calling but I do miss the live tracking of the Sense. For about $380 the Sense is a way better fitness watch but you can’t make calls and the screen is much smaller. For $799 i feel the Apple is not really good at any one thing. No live fitness tracking or heart tracking. Call sound is way too low. So, pending updates, I paid $799 for a much larger screen which is great for texting but I’m still hoping Apple will make some improvements. Also I got no notification about my sleep from the Apple but the Fitbit would show me my sleep score a few minutes after I awoke. Did I make an expensive mistake buying the Apple? Yes unfortunately I did. I honestly cannot recommend the Apple Series 7 watch either as a fitness watch or to make calls with. It’s only good really for receiving texts due to the large screen. Fitbit Sense is the best fitness Watch. The Apple is more ‘jack of all trades but master of none’.Purchased in for $799.

I have had a couple of Fitbits previously which always end up breaking and this is my first Apple Watch. It was a gift and did not really have a strong need for one. Firstly, I would strongly consider the SE over the series 7. I actually upgraded from the SE to 7 and the faster charging is a definite advantage, but always on, slightly larger display, faster processor and oxygen sensor are of marginal benefit given the price differential. In regards to general features, I like being able to make payments and take calls without my phone. Use of S...
Read moreiri is more convenient, especially unlocking my front door or making a call, using apple maps whilst driving is enhanced by haptic alerts for upcoming turns. I have not found any useful apps, although I will use Strava from time to time. Water proof activity tracking works fine and I have worn whilst swimming. Sleep tracking is ok. I cannot link my Aria scales directly which is a shame. Unlocking of phone to perform covid check-ins is ok but NSW app requires passcode/face-id anyway. Also, phone unlocks itself unintentionally when handling and side buttons are pressed so I find this feature of limited use. I have also found unlocking my MacBook unreliable. Whilst I am less likely to miss calls or messages whilst wearing the watch I find this a little distracting at times. I find using the watch a little tricky to use with my fat fingers and without my reading glasses. Having scratched the scratch resistant display within first week I highly recommend fitting a protector. Thankfully Apple excellent level of customer service kindly agreed to replace the watch and otherwise build quality is as expected from Apple. I was a little disappointed that the Apple store staff could not extoll the virtues of having an Apple Watch other than "it is an extension of your phone". I have subsequently found out a little more from YouTube and getting used to having it on my wrist overall. I am still not sure that anyone absolutely needs an Apple Watch (or similar device) and perhaps it is all about style over substance. If you want an Apple Watch (SE or Series 7), go for it, does anyone need an Apple Watch - tbd....Purchased in at Apple Australia for $799.

Based on other good reviews I thought I'd upgrade my Samsung Gear sport to the latest top of the line Apple watch. What a waste of money. Basics like sleep tracking, watch faces and even ease of use were far behind my previous watch. And of course so many things are completely locked into how Apple thinks they should be done rather than how you want them done. Luckily I was able to get my money back as the watch won't work properly with some phones if your workplace has mobile device management.
Purchased for $799.

Upgraded from series 3, woah, what a difference!
After upgrading from a series 3, immediately you can see the optimisation and brightness available in the larger 45mm screen, which is so clear and engaging. The responsiveness of the touch is incredible making it easy to navigate texts messaging, moving through apps and use of system. The price point was a little high as I purchased when new, however it was a treat and even more so when exploring the features. It’s comfortable standard straps make wearing the watch as though it’s not there. Cellular number share with my cellular provider works...
Read more seamlessly, I can leave without my phone for a walk or gym session and not need it. Only issue is the battery only lasts me for one full work day, two days in the weekend when I’m not using it so much.Purchased in at Optus for $699.
