Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Upgraded from a Series 1 to this Series 3. I can't believe the difference in speed! That alone made the upgrade absolutely worth it! The move between apps and the messages app are smooth and succinct. The added features that my old watch did not have are intuitive and time-saving: the raise to talk Siri is perfect and works flawlessly. Not having to "call out" to Siri is great. The walkie-talkie feature is a tad clumsy, but works well for a quick check-in to/from my wife while I am at work. The kids have enjoyed it too when they miss me during the longer days. While I have not swam with the watch, I have worn it in the shower a handful of times. The water eject button is quite intelligent. I think it simply uses sounds waves to push the water out of the speaker port. You can hear a "wshhh" sound, hearing its effectiveness. I will say though, the pitch/volume of the eject noise is quite loud...people WILL look! Like many others, I was hesitating between the new Series 4 and this Series 3. I got it for $229 for Black Friday and simply could not pass up that deal at nearly HALF off a new 4. I don't regret it one bit and am glad I took the plunge!
