Little but Mighty

Have you ever wanted something, but your parents say no? For the past couple

of years, I have been wanting an Apple Watch. I asked for it at Christmas. Then, I asked

again for my birthday. I ended up never getting it. I asked them why I could not get one,

and they told me I did not need one, and that I just wanted one. Then they followed with

if you really want one you can buy one with your own money. I decided on an Apple

Watch was worth looking at.

After I thought about it for a couple of days, I decided that I was going to get one.

It was well worth it. Every dollar I spent on this watch, was money well spent. I have had

the watch for about a month now, and I have never had doubts about buying it. If you

have thoughts about buying an Apple Watch, buy it. If you are a cheap person like me,

a Series 1 Apple Watch is very similar to a Series 3 Apple Watch. However, a Series 1

Apple watch is about $100 cheaper.

There are some other differences between the Series 1 and Series 3, but they

aren’t huge. The Apple Watch Series 1 is water resistant, and the Apple Watch Series 3

is waterproof. The Apple Watch Series 3 has a built-in GPS, so it makes it easier to

make workouts on the Apple Watch, but it is not crucial to have GPS in the watch. The

battery life on both lasts for the same amount of time. The only big difference between

the two is waterproof or water resistant.

The display on the watch screen is incredible. You would think that since it is

such a small screen, you wouldn’t be able to see anything, but that’s not the case.

Everything on the screen is very noticeable and large. You can even increase the text

size if it is not big enough for your eyes. When you are outside, you can still see the

screen perfectly. This is because you can adjust the brightness of the screen on the

watch. This is very helpful because if you are taking a walk and you want to see how

many steps you have, you can see it clearly.

Are you a person who likes to keep track of your exercise? Well, an Apple Watch

does a great job. The watch is able to track how many calories you burn, how many

hours you stand up in a day, how many minutes of exercise you have done, and how

many miles you have completed per day. It will even give you little reminders telling you

to stand up, or you are almost there keep working. Why would u want to buy a Fitbit

when you can buy an Apple Watch, and it can do many more things than a Fitbit can do.

A Fit Bit can’t ping your phone or call and text people.

Are you a person who always loses their phone? Well, if you have an apple

watch, it makes it easy to find it. From your watch, you can ping ur phone, and it will

ding. You can follow the noise, and it will lead you to your phone. This is probably the

most beneficial feature on the watch. Also, if you always have your ringer off, and you

don’t hear phone calls or text messages. The watch vibrates on your wrist when you get

a notification, so you know when someone texts or calls you. When someone is calling

you, you can answer it on the watch and talk on your watch, so you don’t even have to

have your phone in the room you are in when you are on the call. This goes the same

way for text messages. You are able to text back instantly, and you can scribble the

message on your watch or speak your message and have the watch type it out for you.

When the text messages and calls pop up on your screen, you can see them

right away whatever you happen to be doing at that moment. This is very important

because if you are doing something where you don’t have your phone, like school or

work, you can see if it is urgent or irrelevant. I have found it really important at school

because we are not allowed to have our phones out at all, so if my mom or dad texts me

I ccan read it in class. I feel a lot more comfortable because if something bad were to

happen I could text my parents from my watch during a class, without getting myself in

trouble.

On the other hand, there are some flaws in this product. You need to make sure

you have a screen protector on your screen, so when you bang it into something it

doesn't crack the actual screen. You will realize once you have one how many times

you actually bang it into stuff. Another flaw is when you scribble a message, sometimes

it doesn’t pick up on the letter you are writing. Every time I draw the F it never picks it

up, and it writes something random. Other than that, it is a great product.

In conclusion, I would tell everyone I know to get an Apple Watch. It definitely

pays itself off. There are so many different things an Apple watch can do to make your

life easier. To this day, I find out new things my watch can do. It could even change your

life and make you more active because it notifies you if you have been sitting too long,

and tells you to stand up and walk around for a little bit. I would definitely give this

product 5 out of 5 stars, and recommend it to anyone who asked me about my watch. If

any of these things got your attention, you should go out and buy one.
