I’m not writing about the Apple Watch 5 which I purchased. Instead, I”m writing about our experience with Adorama’s customer service team. I bought the watch for my sister in law; it was shipped to her address in Sacramento. She received a delivery confirmation email on the day of delivery, but no watch was to be found on her doorstep. She suspected porch pirates. She called Adorama and they told her that if it didn’t turn up within ten days, they would replace it. Sure enough, on day ten, they credited my account for the full purchase price of the watch, no further questions asked. That is incredible customer service! In case you’re wondering, several days after that a neighbor delivered the watch to her. It was mistakenly left at his address while he was away on a business trip. The watch is being returned to Adorama.

good product and great shopping experience Only one thing the watch was a very pricy product and it could have been shipped with overnight. It took 5-7 days to receive the shipment.

I upgraded from a series 2 42mm to a series 5 44mm, and the most worthwhile upgrade for me has been the quality of the screen. My old watch faces look larger on the series 5, and the new watch faces for this watch are great! I also appreciate the always-on display on the series 5, although it is causing quicker battery drain than before. This is not a dealbreaker—I am used to charging my watch daily, and there is an option to turn off the feature. Overall, this series 5 watch feels very familiar to me, but the newer features make for a worthy upgrade.

Purchased this for my wife and she loves it. The always on feature, while it may drain the battery faster, is nice touch and helps gives this watch a better overall look when just on the wrist. She uses this daily for overall tracking and also for activity specific tracking. The color matches her Iphone and macbook air, so that was a big win.

I’m loving the new Series 5. I get value from the always on display every day. No problems with battery life either. My only disappointment is the watch band selection through Adorama, since buying from Apple gives you the option to customize.

The watch itself is great. I haven't had any problems. The always on display is nice, but probably not worth the extra money if you can get the series 4 on sale. Many retailers are discounting the series 4 for Black Friday.

Great watch. The always on feature is the best part in my opinion. Feels like a real watch. Worth the upgrade from Series 3

This is my first Apple Watch. I can keep my phone in the house and wear the watch in the house and garden in the yard without carrying the phone. It picks up signals immediately. I did not get the cellular plan as I always have the phone nearby. The phone keeps track and motivates you to be active. I already lost one pound this week. I have the gold colored watch as I wear gold jewelry all the time. I should say the color could’ve been a more yellow gold (I have Indian jewelry) but it looks great anyway.

Design
All you, all the time.
With a display that is now always on, Apple Watch Series 5 is there for you like never before. Faces and complications let you see the information that matters most to you without raising your wrist. Cases are available in a range of materials engineered by Apple, including 100% recycled aluminum and, for the first time, titanium. Match with any band you please, and create a combination that is perfectly personalized, just for you.
Always-On Retina display.
You no longer need to raise your wrist or touch the screen to see the time or other information on your watch face, because the display never sleeps. So whether riding a bike, cranking out some crunches, or counting the minutes in a meeting, all you need to do is glance to find the time or your workout metrics right there where you want them.
A screen as remarkable as the day is long.
To remain on all day with all-day battery life, hardware and software have to work in harmony. The display dims when your wrist is down, yet key features, like watch hands, remain visible at all times. Touching the face or raising your wrist brings everything back to full brilliance.
Customize your watch face every which way.
Any face can be personalized by selecting apps or shortcuts to features - what we call complications - that let you see more at a glance and do more with a touch. There are hundreds to tap into, and some faces, such as Infograph, can accommodate up to nine.
Infograph watch face with: Timer, Weather, UV Index, Audiobooks, Noise Monitor, Compass, Activity, Cycle Tracking
Modular Compact watch face with: Date, Activity, Compass, analog clock dial
Meridian watch face with: World Clock, Earth, Moon, Solar
Infograph Modular watch face with: Favorite Contacts, Weather Conditions, Heart Rate, Breathe, Workout
Meridian watch face with: Weather Temperature, UV Index, Rain, Wind
Every piece a masterpiece.
We put as much care into engineering our case materials as we do the technology they contain. We now offer four exquisite materials, including titanium. Each of the metals and the ceramic we use were painstakingly engineered by Apple to enhance their native qualities, while bringing out a distinctive beauty.
Aluminum.
Apple Watch uses 7000 series aerospace-grade aluminum that is at once exceedingly strong and incredibly light. It is the same alloy used in the iPhone XR. And now the aluminum used in the Apple Watch case is 100 percent recycled - culled from the iPhone production process.
Bring on the bands.
Apple Watch bands are designed to be easily interchangeable. They simply slide on and off, so you can effortlessly swap bands as you run from the gym to dinner with a client. Choose from elegant leathers, high-performance fluoroelastomer, flexible nylon weaves, or metal bands if that's your thing. With so many colors and clever clasps, your Apple Watch can feel like a whole new watch, over and over again.
The tech that makes it tick.
Apple Watch packs surprising capabilities into a footprint so small it's more like a fingerprint. Tucked below the deceptively simple surface are many massive feats of engineering.
Ultra-low-power LTPO display.
The low temperature poly-silicon and oxide display features a reinvented pixel architecture that lets the screen refresh rate dip from 60Hz to a power-sipping 1Hz when the watch is inactive. A new low-power driver, ultra-efficient power management, and a new ambient light sensor work together so the display can stay always on with up to 18 hours of battery life.
S5 chip.
The S5 is a complete System in Package (SiP), with the entire system fabricated onto a single component.
Compass and location features.
A built-in magnetometer detects magnetic north then automatically adjusts to show true north, so you'll now know which way you're facing in the Maps app. GPS works in conjunction with terrain data to tell you your current elevation - great for outdoor workouts.
Health
Proactive Health Monitor
Always in sight. Always insightful.
All around, Apple Watch inspires a healthier life. It monitors your heart rate and lets you know if something is wrong. Helps you keep track of your menstrual cycle and taps you if noise levels rise to a point that could impact your hearing. You can also add complications like Breathe, Heart Rate, and Noise to your watch face and keep them top of mind throughout your day. It's the first watch that really watches out for you.
ECG on your wrist. Anytime, anywhere.
With the ECG app, Apple Watch Series 5 is capable of generating an ECG similar to a single-lead electrocardiogram. It's a momentous achievement for a wearable device that can provide critical data for doctors and peace of mind for you.
Your finger can tell you a lot about your heart.
Electrodes built into the Digital Crown and the back crystal work together with the ECG app to read your heart's electrical signals. Simply touch the Digital Crown to generate an ECG waveform in just 30 seconds. The ECG app can indicate whether your heart rhythm shows signs of atrial fibrillation - a serious form of irregular heart rhythm - or sinus rhythm, which means your heart is beating in a normal pattern.
It has your heart in mind.
Unusually high or low heart rates and irregular heart rhythms (known as arrhythmias) could be signs of a serious condition. But many people don't recognize the symptoms, so the underlying causes often go undiagnosed. With notifications in the Heart Rate app, Apple Watch Series 5 can check your heart and alert you to these irregularities - so you can take action and consult your doctor.
Track your cycle with a tap.
The Cycle Tracking App gives you insight into your menstrual cycle and can help provide a clearer picture of your overall health. In addition to simply ensuring that you're prepared, you'll have more information to help you track irregularities and symptoms and enrich discussions with your doctor.
Safe from sound.
Noise can rise to levels that may impact your hearing without your even realizing it. The new Noise app senses when the roar of the crowd or the rumble of machinery reaches a level that may pose a risk. So you can step out or plug up to give your ears a needed break.
Take a breather.
Taking moments throughout the day to stop, relax, and practice mindfulness can help reduce stress and improve overall health. The Breathe app keeps you centered by leading you through a series of calming breaths. It's also available as a watch face, so you can bring focus to your day just by raising your wrist.
Apps that make health the first priority.
The right apps can play an important role in reminding you to keep up with healthy routines. Whether you want to better manage a condition like diabetes, make healthier food choices, or reduce stress, there's an app designed to help you prioritize your goal. And now that the App Store is right on your wrist, it's even easier to find great health apps.
A more personal Health app. For a more informed you.
With the redesigned Health app on iPhone, it's easier than ever to access the information that matters most to you. Now you can see automatically generated highlights of how your health data is trending over time.
